DYK another new law here this year is that the pediatrician assesses the child's BMI, and it's reported to the schools on the health information form we fill out this year.

dyk I read (last year maybe) that certain schools across the country had completely revamped their lunch menus.


dyk I wish they could all do that.


dyk at least incorporate some fruits and veggies or something.

DYK last night Chad ordered one of those portable cycles for under your desk?


Stamina InStride Cycle XL - 30729


DYK I don't quite understand, since he works from home and we *have* a stationary bike?


DYK I am giving him a week and then I'm taking it to work! :-)

dyk my kids are allowed to eat one school lunch per week...the other days we pack it?


dyk I don't have a very positive opinion of their PE program, either...mostly because their PE teacher is a 250+ lb woman with bad knees who, every time I've observed her during outside PE classes, is sitting on a bucket telling the kids what to do...


dyk that's just not a positive role model for that sort of class, IMHO

dyk at least your schools are making an effort.


dyk looking at the menu here, it doesn't appear that our schools are too concerned with it.


dyk the schools here are actually really good, so we feel lucky...but I guess just not when it comes to food.
