Weight Loss

Here is yet another article about people losong a lot of weight. I have posted this type of article before in hopes it would inspire me to really get motivated to make a change. Heck, if I would have started when I posted the first article like this I might be half-way to my goal by now (or maybe even 3 quarters). But I have not been motivated to really get serious about changing my diet and start an exercise regime.  Argh! I wish I could mount a computer and keyboard on a treadmill and blog/write (and play the Sims) my way to being thin. Hahaha

Moms reveal why they gave up their children

More women relinquishing custody in divorces; do they get an unfair rap?

This is great article talking about a subject that has not been talked about very much. The woman highlighted in the article is a truly strong woman to talk about this and I like what she has to say. 

“The more I talk about it, the more I find that people’s eyes are open to the reality — which is that over 2 million noncustodial moms are in America right now, and it is definitely increasing,” Spicuglia said. “People are recognizing that fathers can be amazing primary caregivers, and we shouldn’t sell men short.”

“For me, I made the best decision that I could in the best interests of my son. As parents, that’s what we have to do. It makes parenting the hardest job possible,” Spicuglia said. – She is talking about her decision to leave her son in the custody of his father while she went away to college.

Thank You. More woman need to quit selling the father of their children short, quit making decisions about their children based on what they, the women want (such as money or the need not to deal with negative perceptions) rather than what is best for the child.
