I agree - there was good stuff to think about here.

I find it noteworthy that women have so many food issues - and

historically, we've been responsible for providing the family's food! For

years I've thought about this - who am I to be responsible for feeding my

kids, when clearly I didn't have my act together about food. Vicious cycle.

But then I realized I was doing ok - it was " do as I say, not as I do " - I

took better care of them than I took of myself. And now, I take good care

of myself too. So I think this is true for other families too - perhaps

the vicious cycle is breaking.

Look how many moms are doing BFL and changing the way families eat... it's

good stuff.
