We are 40-something parents of four wonderful daughters who had found ourselves feeling tired, rundown, and generally…BLAH!!! Realizing that our lifestyle was hampering us, our children, and our children’s future lifestyle choices, we began to change. Not all at once, mind you, but we started by shopping at Earth Fare and local tailgate markets. After a few weeks we began eating veggies at least two nights per week. We were amazed at the amount of energy we had, how much better we felt, and what wonderful moods our children were in. Since then we have struggled a bit with lunches, snacking, and everyone in the family craving a soda or a drive-thru "quickie."
But the bits of improvement we have made have left us better off. We are so appreciative of the staff at Earth Fare who assist us with our “newbie” questions and lead us to more healthy food choices. Enjoying making the change is an unexpected bonus that we love and will continue. Hopefully one day, we will be able to assist another “dazed” family that is looking to make a change like we were.
