Congrads to your being a stay at home MOM....   My wife also had four boys and was a "Keeper of the Home"...  The children need to stability of a good Mother...  

 The key to life is balance and moderation....  Remember we are all on a diet; it just what kind of diet....  The best news is to eat an 80/20 diet...  that is the have a near balanced diet for 80% of your diet, then if and when the other not so healthy foods come up it will be .... OK for the remaining 20% of your diet...   Therefore 80/20...

I have written some on diets on past blogs, which you can check out, plus there is more stuff out there; but most are going to sell you something....  I do not sell information...  Will keep track of your progress,  you have one very important advantage and that is you want to make a change in your life...  That is excellent, and unfortunately most people talk about change, but never do anything about it...  Keep the faith, dear lady...   see ya...
