My sons saved up and bought the x-box themselves, but the ipad is a family thing and the boys each have a lap top which we bought because they need them for homework.<br />Since I wrote my post we have removed the x-box completely - much to the boys' disgust. Its removal has had an interesting and very welcome effect. They have been going out to play football and each day I have taken them out to ... the garden centre, a family party ... and so on.<br />Although they did not want to do any of the above they actually enjoyed each activity. I am determined to limit their use of electronics and go back to what we always did before, namely bike rides, walking, visiting places.They don't like not having the x-box, but they have no choice, even though they bought it themselves. As I have explained to them, I am the parent and it is sometimes my responsibility to make decisions that they don't like, for their own good.

Sometimes we as parents have to lead by example...what would happen to your family if you were sans TV or iPads/iPods, etc.?

Lots of people here are doing the Fast Diet.I am fasting on Mondays and Thursdays and then keeping an eye on my calorie intake the rest of the time ( just to make sure I don't go over the 2000 mark. To be honest thats easy as I just dont eat that many calories usually.<br />I am from the UK ... about an hour away from London.<br />I look forward to seeing how your fast diet goes - you have already done amazingly by the looks of your blog!

(literally..lol)<br />I am so happy to know we are both doing the fast diet...I do not know anyone in United states that is giving it a go, but then again it seems to be just now catching on here. I will start my 3rd week (5th fast day) on Monday. Do you have a schedule you follow as well?<br />As for your boys... Oh how I remember the frustration. I have raised my boys and they are grown now. I was a younger mom and I DON'T miss what you brought back to memory.
