empty nest

Can I blame my kids taking off to college for my comfort eating and weight gain :(

    No because you are not cooking for them now!

    Lol....well, for a little while. Is there something you've wanted to do but haven't because your priorities were your children? Join something like an exercise group, take a class at your local community college, or maybe start volunteering at your nearby nursing home. My 27 year old already graduated from college and now lives by himself. I love it when he comes over but so proud that he's independent!! I'm not at your point yet because we do have our 13 year old son at home, although he can't wait to go off to college and be away from mom and dad.
