Hubby, had extra time at home, that he hadn't planned on, the weather was rotten, the kids were bored, and you were beginning to have fantasies of running away from home, what the heck? Well that's all behind us now,. "now", is the time to take stock. Set aside a part of each day, for yourself. One, evening a week remember, how you used to love to, try new styles of clothes, have pride in your appearance. It is something, we all need, and want, and if you start by giving yourself, a bit of time, that is not being selfish, before long the whole family, benefits. Kids may not show it, but they are pleased when others, notice the change, in mother. At first hubby, hubby, may think, oh no, another diet, but stick to it and when he starts to ndtice that others are starting to comment on the change, who knows maybe, he will work on that little extra notch, he snuck in on his belt. , Let's get going, let's Take Off Pounds Sensibly.
