Can I manage my own diet plan while preparing baby food and snacks for my children?

I have personally experienced the struggle of balancing household chores and medical practice while trying to maintain a healthy diet. It is common for parents to find themselves dizzy or fatigued because they end up eating only leftovers or scraps after preparing their children's meals. The key is to share the ingredients but differentiate the 'cooking methods' and 'portions.' The most important factor here is your current bodily state. First, consider those in a state of Spleen Deficiency (Bi-heo, 脾虛). If your spleen function is weak and your digestive power is low, you can benefit from the same soft porridges or steamed vegetables prepared for your children. However, since adults require more protein, you should simply increase the portion of meat or legumes. Conversely, those with an accumulation of Phlegm-Fluid (Dameum, 痰飮) require a different approach. Dameum refers to a state where unnecessary metabolic waste accumulates in the body. For these individuals, sharing the children's sweet fruit snacks or glutinous rice-based meals may actually make the body feel heavier and more sluggish. In this case, while sharing ingredients, you should stick to simplified cooking methods, such as steaming or boiling. Sharing ingredients with your family reduces costs and preparation time, which significantly increases the sustainability of your diet. I can help you determine your constitution and decide what to add or remove from your current meals. Why not visit the clinic so we can create a personalized plan together?
