I’m back!… It has taken a while to adjust to life in a new country…. The world of celebrities, dieting and some of the biggest food issues in the developed world. Whenever we think obesity, type 2 diabetes and heart disease everyone looks to America. Sadly, Australia is headed in the same direction and yet here in the Northwest (Seattle) I have been positively surprised by all the ‘healthy’ food options and diet awareness, especially when it comes to parents and children. That’s not to say I don’t see any ‘unhealthy’ almost scary patterns, though it’s still a relief that many people are realising this epidemic is not going away and we are the only ones that can change the direction of this freight train.
