  • I think what makes me feel like a good parent is when I hear my 5 year old talk about the Lord. I have always wanted to be a Christian example to her and when I hear her quote Scripture and pray and tell others about Jesus it makes me feel great! Also, spending quality time with both of my kids individually is important to…

  • I had that stuff and I didn't exercise except walking when i could. Don't overdo it! Eat the best you can and get better. Drink plenty of fluids and double or triple your vitamin c and take echinacea too! That really helped me! Feel better soon!

  • One of the things I would say is try and set a short term goal first. Say I want to lose 20 lbs. by this amount of time and go for it with all your heart. Second, is don't take it all off so fast and crash diet. It will be too much and will cause you to crash binge. At least that is the way it is for me. I have tried to…

  • I wouldn't quit altogether right away. I have heard the aspartame is very bad for you but it is a calorie free drink. Maybe you can just cut it down to a couple a day and then go down to a couple a week. Learn to have them in moderation instead of excess. Replace it with flavored water or something that has a taste so it…
