Are you getting enough color?

Sorry I haven't gotten to post anything lately!  We just got back from a trip to California and Arizona that was about 3 days too long! :)  As I was at Disneyland, walking around, I noticed how the majority of people are truly overweight!  The statistics are right, 63.1% of adults in the U.S. were either overweight or obese in 2009, according to the latest Gallup-Healthways Well-Being Index.  It was quite represented at Disneyland and also in the majority of the towns/cities we visited in California and Arizona.  Scary stuff.  I immediately put me and my family on a junk food detox and a healthy eating and exercising plan.  It will start tomorrow, so we will see how it goes over when I break the news tonight! 

Everybody, now and again, needs to look at their eating habits and notice if they are getting enough veggies in their diets.  I linked a great article about "taking the color challenge".  Check it out and see if you are getting enough color in your diet.  And no, a bag or four, of pink cotton candy does not count!
