What We Don't Realize --

It's Tuesday, work was hectic, and you're a mom that has been carpooling your kids around from practice to practice. After all of this busy work and a busy day -- who has the time to cook? It is such a simple decision that we do not even realize. Week after week can go by, and then year after year, our children will transform into a statistic. "Results from the 2007-2008 NHANES, using measured heights and weights, indicate that an estimated 16.9% of children and adolescents aged 2-19 years are obese <http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/hestat/obesity_child_07_08/obesity_child_07_08.htm>." These results show that not only are these so-called simple decisions affecting ourselves, but generations to come. I think it's about time parents and adults begin a revelation of healthy eating, while eating out in moderation. So instead of going out to eat with a friend to catch up, have a home-cooked healthy meal instead. Simple decisions are starting to add up, and effect everyone around us.
