I had the pleasure of listening to Michelle Obama speak about the new initiative called “Let’s Move” . The US government along with other agencies are putting together programs to get into our schools and for the public that will get rid of childhood obesity.
What does that mean for us? It means that our kids will be healthier. They’ll have more energy. They will be able to fight adult diseases that go along with childhood obesity. It means that the future of our children will look better and brighter and more fulfilling.
You can start now! It will take some time for things to be put in place, but YOU as a parent can start now. As a matter of fact, if YOU participate imagine what getting fit and healthy will do for YOU!!
Start today, cut back proportions, lower salt, sugar and fat intake. Exercise, Exercise Exercise!!! Really begin to read labels. Remember that any thing modified is….well modified! There are so many healthy, yummy snacks that you can substitute for those that come wrapped, boxed or canned.
Lets start today. Together we can make a difference!!!
