Great article! I am now off the fast food. It helps to cook and freeze ahead of time. I also create a beautiful menu and I put it on the fridge and I describe it like the restaurant and that has help keeping my children curious and excited about dinner even if its almond and green beans.lol

Little things go a long way!!

I think people fall into the fast food trap because of schedules. I changed my diet recently, but occasionally fall into the fast food trap. I need to watch that DVD eventually, it seems interesting. I just got out of the hospital with pancreatitis and my husband vowed that even he would eat better with me. We’ve started getting off the red meat kick and incorporating Turkey instead. Thanks for reminding me to watch it. I am glad your family is living healthier!

It’s a great DVD! I think we all need all the extra help we can get to make the good choices…the bad ones are too easy and too well publicized.

Holly, this was a great article! I’ve done the same thing you’re doing (except the grain mill–I must get one!) and it’s made a huge difference in my weight and how I feel.
We take our good health for granted until as you said, our bodies begin cashing in on the years of receipts. As I approach 50 (next March, gulp!)my message to everyone is, “Eat right, exercise often!” It’s old advice, but it’s solid.

All we can do is our best and sometimes our best is just turning away from that fast food joint and grabbing a salad instead.

God bless you guys, Darlene

Right back at ‘ya!

I watched Food, Inc on DVD. It was really interesting. I learned a lot of things - like the industry’s use of corn to feed livestock and the patents on seeds. How can it be illegal to reuse seeds in America?

Crazy isn’t it? Even more so is knowing how that corn is causing Ecoli with a simple solution but they’re throwing ammonia on the meat instead….yum.
