Does your family have a healthful diet?

According to a survey published in USA Today Health, only 1 in 3 parents think their family has a healthful diet.  This is not very surprising considering the state of health in our nation.  Most surveyed do not know caloric count in many of the products they eat on a daily basis.  Additionally, more than half of the parents surveyed felt that their activity level was fair or poor.  The majority (74%) did however feel that their kids activity level was good or very good.  Although many kids get plenty of activity,  this number seems high.  Kids are not nearly as active as they used to be and it is showing!  A lack of activity combined with a poor diet has lead to a huge problem with overweight children and adults in this country.  How do you think your family is doing?
