It's Time!

So my little family has been slowly under going some small changes over the last few weeks in our diet and the way we look at health. Travis has quit drinking pop. I have stopped drinking milk and we all have started trying to drink more water. There have been other small changes, but not major ones. Now the reason for this, is because of a Zoneologist that we have started seeing lately that has helped us to realize the things that these products are doing to our bodies. I will get more into what zoneology is another time, but we have been very excited with what we have learned so far! By the way, Thanks Kirsten for the referral! Anyway, we have recently (within the last few days) decided that it is time to make even bigger changes in our health. The reasons? On Sunday I found out that my cousins husband, that is around my age and has two small children, has cancer. Not only does he have cancer, but he has three forms of it, two of which are very aggressive forms. It breaks my heart. Then, to top it off, yesterday I found out that my grandpa has prostate cancer, and something is wrong with his heart, they are not quite sure yet. We are not sure on the prognosis, as my grandpa will not tell anybody yet because he does not want us to worry. But it has really hit home with me this week with everything going on, and what I have learned about my body, how precious life is. How short it really is. How wonderful our bodies are and that I should be taking better care of this gift that I have. That I should be teaching my kids from a young age how important it is to eat healthy. So I am going to be working on this. I am going to be trying new things and we will hope that it all goes well!
