In middle school I had at least two occasions where I was sent to the nurses office coughing up blood after running while everyone just looked at me like I'd grown a third arm. It's really sad. I feel like women our age were done a huge disservice in our youth because of the lack of real training/teaching about health & fitness. I don't think it's just fitness either, it's food too, but I think that has a lot to do with our parent's generation and their need to make eating/exercising quick. Hopefully going forward our children will be better equipped to be healthy and happy with their bodies. <br /><br />I'm going to look into this book though, it sounds like one I could take a few things from. Especially since I like working out on my own much more than in a group as well. Great review!!! :)The1stdaughterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03701783270303914306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1297257449491178045.post-48549053616078547652012-08-10T10:17:38.747-04:002012-08-10T10:17:38.747-04:00@the1stdaughter - The author does talk about women...@the1stdaughter - The author does talk about women who cannot breastfeed but not to any major extent that I would recommend picking up the book for just that. I agree that it should be a personal decision. My mother was unable to breastfeed me so I was bottlefed on formula. One thing that was interesting about this book was finding out that milk is really a product that comes from blood and fat. Wow! I didn't know that. So if you were anemic, your system would have been very taxed to create milk and breastfeed so I can understand why you passed out. :-( <br /><br />However, breastfeeding is a big subject in the book so if that's something that interests you, you may just want to borrow the book from the library and read those few chapters. :-)Quelle Bookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15768935035911368954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1297257449491178045.post-51002548405319242762012-08-09T22:05:49.283-04:002012-08-09T22:05:49.283-04:00This is really interesting.

I tried everything, including attempting to breastfeed while so anemic that I passed out with my daughter because I had been so inundated with info that said I absolutely needed to. With my son I simply produced no milk, zero. After reading your info about passing things on to our children I feel a little relieved in a way. Overall though I feel like it should definitely be a personal decision. My experience with being unable to caused many long nights of depression and sadness at feeling unqualified to be a mom because I couldn't do one of the most basic of functions a mother should do. I don't feel that way anymore, so not worry. :o) <br /><br />Anywho, I'm going on for far too long! Love this review though. I'm really curious about the book now!

I think I mentioned to you before that I really enjoyed the movie as a child (I know, now I cringe that I told you that, lol), but I've never read the story. In fact, I had no idea it was a full length novel before being made a movie. Now I want to read it or actually listen to it! It sounds wonderful!<br /><br />All of the colors and craziness of the movie were always something I appreciated as a very young child, but the story sounds so much more appealing in novel form as an adult. I love that her shoes were silver! Definitely a better choice in my opinion, but I can see why the movie producers would use the red to their advantage. <br /><br />Anywho...Fabulous review! I can't wait to see what else you review! :o)The1stdaughterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03701783270303914306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1297257449491178045.post-37473056117709798732012-04-17T18:49:15.944-04:002012-04-17T18:49:15.944-04:00So excited you started this blog, YAYAY!So excited you started this blog, YAYAY!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09004546178112127604noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1297257449491178045.post-12128936835721807332012-04-17T10:36:00.667-04:002012-04-17T10:36:00.667-04:00I really want to read this one. :) Congrats on Boo...I really want to read this one. :) Congrats on Book #1 for the project!*ೃ༄ Jillianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14139487177036647728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1297257449491178045.post-31021615807996996862012-03-13T11:28:57.984-04:002012-03-13T11:28:57.984-04:00Thank you Jillian for starting this wonderful chal...Thank you Jillian for starting this wonderful challenge and for the support.<br /><br />Thank you O!Quelle Bookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15768935035911368954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1297257449491178045.post-57534048745815292212012-03-12T18:54:02.215-04:002012-03-12T18:54:02.215-04:00Love your list :) Welcome to Blogland, while I'...Love your list :) Welcome to Blogland, while I'm here! :)ohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01245931629228090133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1297257449491178045.post-23126268627462761542012-03-12T14:03:50.989-04:002012-03-12T14:03:50.989-04:00So many great choices, Raquel!
