Change yourself, change the world!

My wife and I are looking to build a community of healthy people helping others get healthy, but it must start with ourselves.
We have been trying for a couple of years to get back to our pre-marriage, pre-baby, bodies. This site has already made a big change in the way we eat and live.

An old story, goes something like this;

An old man on his death bed told of when he was younger he wanted to change the world.
When he realized he couldn't change the world, he tried to change his country.
When he couldn't change his country, he tried to change his state.
When he couldn't change his state, he tried to change his city.
When he couldn't change his city, he tried to change his family.
When he couldn't change his family, he tried to change himself.

By then he was an old man, and he realized if he would have changed himself first,
he could have changed his family, then his city, state, country, and finally the world.

"Be the change you want to see in the world." Gandhi
