HI Stacey I do understand what you are saying but it is so hard to take a back seat in my life my hubby is pretty useless and as much as friends like to help it is so hard for me to accept it is like I am usually the strong one I dont know how to slow down anymore I am working on it. The only cakes I am making is for my…

a handful of nuts is a good one good fats etc. glass of milk. dark chocolate. eat things like potatoes or sweet potato to your evening meal. I too struggle to eat my cals and thats what I do.

stacey water pistol aimed straight at the face (not eyes) should do the trick failing that maybe you shoud look into the pet corrector spray it is an aerosol can and it blast air and startles the dog she wont like it but I have seen it used with great success on a yappy jack russell it is not very expensive in the UK dont…

tough decision stacey but you have to do what is right for you and your family just make sure you are certain before you do as you dont want to regret it later. The puppy stuff does get easier with time but no dog is mature until they are 18mnths and passed the teenage time (thats when they get really bad) Ok I have got to…
