Are you comfortable with your food choices for your family?

Can you truly teach your kids about "healthy eating?

ARE YOU?

I will be the first to admit that my family was "junk food junkies"!

Monday 2 for 1 at the sub shop
Tuesday 1/2 price pizza at the pizzaria
Wednesday, well that was wings & things night - home made, deep fried french fries,
wings and potato skins
Thursday pasta night, usually something saucy and cheesey...really cheesey
Friday tacos/hamburgers/or something with ground beef
Saturday "free for all" or leftovers
And Sunday, well, Sunday I'd put in a roast or chicken or something "good", it was
Sunday afterall.

That was pretty much our life. Week after week.

Sound familiar?

"I KNEW I NEEDED TO BE DIFFERENT...FOR THE KIDS!"

I won't go into all the "details", but my health declined, my kids were sick all the time
and well, I didn't like who I was becoming. Something needed to change.

So I did what any good teacher would do (oh yeah, did I tell you that I am a
teacher? I even taught health class for YEARS! Irony!) So, I did what any good
teacher would do, I decided to TEACH myself what "healthy eating" really meant.

My search begun! I started where anybody would start...the Canada Food guide
and the FDA Food Pyramid. I checked it out, wow, so if we just ate that...we would
be fine...

PERFECT!

NOT! More research into both those documents led to doing more research about
our food supply. Don't even get me started! (CLICK HERE if you want to learn more
about that!)

AND I saw how much food we truly had to eat...according to THEM to be healthy.

I learned about the RDA (which has changed names many times over the years but
it still means..."required-daily-amount-so-you-will-stay-just-above-not-sick". That's
right, not healthy, not energetic, not brilliant...just "not sick".)

Well that wasn't it.

I read books on vitamins, minerals, farming, diets, nutrition, anything that was
related to food and health.

The information out there was OVERWHELMING! There are literally 100's of 1000's of
books on food, nutrition, healthy eating, etc...it made my head spin. Again,
OVERWHELMED! I needed to keep it simple.

I know I needed a SYSTEM for my family to create their own "Food
Independence". You know, we had to have something in place to make our own
good decisions. We needed to know the basics to be better.

Being the teacher that I am, I did all the research, then I created a "lesson plan" for
my family. Just like I teach anything to my students, I taught my family in baby
steps. We started with breakfast and evolved from there.

This "lesson plan" turned into a 12 week guide to our family's FOOD RULES!

It is SO SIMPLE!

With all my research, we decided to pick just one thing per week and stick with
that. And once we did that...and didn't die...(because goodness gracious, dying
could have very well changed EVERYTHING LOL!) we just moved on to another
thing.

Before we knew it we added a high grade nutritional supplement program to our
diet, we CHOSE to eat in more often AND we learned to prepare food...no really, we
learned how to prepare food to be eaten, NOT deep fried, NOT smothered in sauce,
NOT broiled to nothing...prepared to be eaten.

We made a few VERY SIMPLE CHANGES and our lives CHANGED!

What kind of CHANGES you ask...

$$ HEALTH FREEDOM $$

North America is in a health crisis...

...more than ever our families are experiencing the unfortunate consequesnces of
unhealhty eating habits, lack of physical exercise, and hte conitnual bombardment of
dnagerous often deadly toxins from our every changing environment,

...in today's society we are continualy exposed to over-processed, chemically
preserved, genetically altered and nutritionally bankrupt foods in the home and away,

...at every stage of life we are in deperate need of high grade nutrients to feul our
bodies and brains

...if we are what we eat then we are in BIG TROUBLE! Poor quality foods are standard
issue in most =households, schools and restaurants.

Where is your family headed?

What will your family's health be like in the next 5 - 10 years if you
continue on the path you are currently on?

I will tell you what happened to our family in just 4 short years with the right info...

MOM - dropped 42 pounds ~ kept it off for 3 years now ~ removed all her
presecription meds (under her doctor's care of course) ~ maybe 5 sick days in 3
years ~ parmaceutical free for 3 years (not even an asprin) and happy, yes happy!

DAD - GAINED 8 pounds of lean muscle ~ only well days ~ can out play his nephew
(who is half his age) in ball hockey 2 shifts to 1 ~ stronger than ever

KIDS ~ building lean muscle ~ strong ~ brilliant ~ very few sick days ~ joyous

And did I mention that we are all happy? We really are. Because we make our own
better food choices, we feel fabulous we really do.

Cars come with manuals, video games come with manuals, but our very
own bodies, they don't. We are supposed to "figure it out as we go!" I
trusted the media for too long. I am so thankful for Barbilee's book. It is
simple and family friendly. You sure can tell she is a mom and a teacher.
I have to say, when we started I couldn't even imagine making even just
one change a week so I emailed Barbilee and asked her where we should
begin. She told me breakfast. So for the first while we focused on only
breakfast. And the rest of our lives changed.
