Musclemike
Musclemike eats protein foods, like lean
meats and eggs each day to help maintain
his muscles. He likes to lift weights but he
also makes sure to include a bit of walking or
jogging into his fitness routine as well.
Musclemike knows that he only needs one or
two serves of protein a day to give him all the
nutrition he needs from this food group.
Ollie Oil
Ollie Oil has only recently moved in to the
neighborhood. He likes to eat fried foods and
sugary treats. He loves to skate, though, and
seeing all of his new friends and how healthy
they are is giving him the motivation to try and
improve his diet. He knows that if he eats lots of
grains, fruits and veggies, plus moderate amounts
of dairy and protein, then he can afford to have
a treat every now and then, especially if he
follows it up with a good skate around the park.
