Having kids doesn't have to mean the death of your sex life.

The Cabbage Soup Diet, aka The "Torture” Diet. You just put cabbage in water and cook it. And you eat it. All day. It is not good. You will still be hungry, and farting — very smelly, paint-peeling farting.

You do not have to hate your body — but you don’t have to love it either. While I'm happy with my fat body, I miss being thin.

A weekly trip to Walmart would end in tears — first theirs, then mine. Them pining in the toy aisle. Me saying no. Over and over. It wasn’t so much that I wanted to buy my kids whatever they wanted, it was that I couldn’t.

My mother didn't teach me how to be a mother. But my babies did.
