Rule #1: Stop lying, especially to yourself.

Before baby became a word, the term was fetus, in Latin.

Fetus = Baby

It's a baby.

Important Reminder

REAL 2024 Nov 18

I tried continuing to take care of myself without the weekly followup here; it didn't work. I forget. I need weekly written accountability. I'll take a break during the holidays. I'm learning that simply creating accountability once in a while helps with maintaining consistency.

Within the first three days of making this decision, and following through, my knee is doing better and so is my back.

I remembered to do physical therapy every day and took some short walks. 

Eating healthier is becoming a fascinating priority instead of a drudgery. 

Sleep is also improving. For the first time in years, without being sick, I slept 7-1/2 hours straight. Thanks God! 

One step at a time.

Don't let those who think they're smarter than you fool you or scare you.

Those "archaic" laws that banned abortion did NOT include proper medical treatment for miscarriages, ectopic pregnancies, saving the life of the mother, etc. 

The propaganda machine lied.

Shocker.

Watching "Gifted Hands: The Ben Carson Story" drove home the absolute stupidity of prejudice. What a remarkable man. Martin Luther King was right: Judge a man by his character.   

Exactly

A woman who is pregnant is not having a baby; she HAS a baby. It's just easier to contain until it's born.
