TOP TIPS FROM THE SERIES:

● Use a weekly meal planner and write a list for each supermarket shop.

● Batch-cook food and don’t be tempted to order a takeaway.

● Plan ahead, so you don’t need to nip to the shops mid-week.

● Make exercise part of your daily routine – and involve the kids!

● If possible, try to eat together as a family, instead of making different meals for everyone.

● Get children involved in making their own food (this is especially good for fussy eaters).

● Keeping active gives your brain something to focus on, which can be a good coping strategy for difficult times (like lockdown).
