New goals...

We had a long talk earlier this week and realized that the time has come for us to change up our lifestyle a bit. Having been married for 20 years and now in our 40's we have seen each other in all states of health. As it stands neither my wife nor I feel great. My wife wants to loose weight and I simply want to regain my strength and level of fitness. As a result of our conversation we decided to implement a Paleo lifestyle in our diet and level of exercise. We are holding off for a while before fully immersing our children in this diet. There will be slow and subtle changes to what food are brought into the house. We already eat an organic and local diet so the children are used to eating good foods. There will be less baking done in our house and eventually sugar will not be available to them. For now we are simply lessening the availability of starches and encouraging more vegetables and fruits.
