Can I Maintain A Healthy Body?

I never considered myself fat or overweight, but compared to 10 years ago I have put on a few pounds. My doctor seems to think that I could lose 10lbs and suggested I try dieting and exercise. I hate the word “diet”. I can start a diet and have really good intentions of sticking to it, but the diet never seems to last for more than a few days to a week. Something always comes up: that party I have to attend, dinner and moves with friends, or a holiday. As for exercising…well I will start working out (walking or doing a working out tape), but again I always seem to let other things pop up and the work outs just stop. I seriously looked at my body and thought I need to tone…seriously tone up! So starting today I will be eating better (not dieting) cutting calories to start then slowly adding different foods. I’m also going to start working out to maintain a healthy weight and body. I will keep you posted on my progress…thanks for coming along. Smooches!!!

Will I Be Able To Stay Home?

In 2009 is it possible to live on 1 income? My son is now 13 and I do want another child, but once I have another child will I be able to stay home? Or is is back to work after 3 months? I ask myself this question every month. How much money does it take to run our house hold? We live in a country where people do live on one income and it works for them, but can this work for everyone? What will I need to give up and go without? Can I live without certain things; such as getting my hair done every 2 weeks and my pedicures - this is my down time and rather I go to work or stay home I need down time. Due I have to courage to take the leap and stop working??? Maybe I need to try living on one income for 6 months and see how that goes and I will have my answer.
