Getting the Notion

It has been apparent to me for some time that my eatting and overall health practices were not what they needed to be. I had made a few half-baked attempts at trying to live a healthy lifestyle, but lack the consistancy to see any progress on the outside.

As for feeding my daughter, i thought that i was doing an OK job. She ate 1-2 servings of vegetables a day (from a can usually) and plenty of "meat" products. A glass of milk with every meal and even an occasional fresh fruit.

It wasn't until about a month ago i woke up and realized that a change needed to be made for the long term health of both my daughter and I. Not just a good idea, but now a necessity! You see, Eliza had been complaining about chronic stomach pain, and because of the gerd she had as an infant, the doctors prescribed her Zantac, an acid relex medicine. I understand these medicines are here for a reason, but would prefer it to be the very last result, rather than the first choice.

Using the resources of some well knowledge friends, and my own internet research, I hope to begin anew. Giving Eliza and I the diets that we need to heal our bodies from the insdie out, all along creating habits to last us both the rest of our lives.

stay tuned.....
