LAST QUESTION!
Q6: Food and physical activity are important parts of a healthy lifestyle. Obsessing about calories, carbs, fats or any nutrient is not. How do you make healthy eating fun and model a healthy relationship with food or body image?

Cooking Matters at UROC was a wonderful way to close out the year. Wishing everyone a Happy, Healthy New Year!
Great tip from a Cooking Matters chef: take advantage of cranberries in season and stock up for later use in smoothies and sauces!
Here are some different ways to pack them in the freezer! youtube.com/watch?time_conti…
Just learned of @MEANSDatabase from CNN heroes. Great way for restaurants, food shelves, etc... to eliminate food waste and end hunger. Extra food? Go to database and post. Someone can use it! <3
"The lives of others may be beyond our experience, but they should never be beyond our empathy," says Maria Rose Belding, whose online platform MEANS has helped to distribute 1.8 million pounds of food to the hungry. #CNNHeroes cnn.it/2UsUVlb
Community BBQ celebrating healthy school meals. Growing some of their own fruits and veggies! #MPSBBQ
Our bus tour was full of people from all walks of life with one common thread: food access for all. My take away: hearing each other's stories, ideas, accomplishments helps to fuel the passion to fight health disparities. Food access is one important key! #mfanbustrip
Something beautiful at Cimarron Farm. Very nice day! #mfanbustrip
MFAN bus tour showcasing some of the great work surrounding food access. Wonderful way to see many great people and how our work intersects as we work to end hunger such as Senator Tina Smith. This is Paula one of her reps! #SenatorTinaSmith #mfanbustrip #SnapedWorks
New connections are another reason MFAN meetings are a great space to be in. Met Chloe from Washington Co Public Health! #mfanbustrip
