Healthy Eating for Healthy Babies AND Healthy Bodies
to Getpregnantblog.com “When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves.”
In mid-March 09 we really began to make major changes – it is as if we decided to rev up our efforts to be really healthy. And the changes we made came not just out of our desire to conceive our beautiful baby. But also because we got a rude awakening.
A friend of hubby’s, a man in his early thirties, with a young wife and two young children and his whole life ahead of him still to be lived – died of a sudden massive heart attack. His children would not know him – they would be fatherless. His wife would have to raise them by herself and had been robbed of their future together. And it had all been preventable.
It really brought home to us that we needed to make some lifestyle changes if we wanted to live to a healthy ripe old age and be there for this family we were working so hard to create.
Hubby and I made a promise to each other that we would do everything in our power not to get a stroke, heart attack or cancer.
Sounds crazy, but once we made the promise, we realised that there was a whole lot we could do to influence our health.
