Yeah, its almost impossible to exercise enough calories away to make a difference. If you build muscle you'll burn them more efficiently but you still have to restrict intake seriously to lose any weight.
It occurs to me I'd make an awful Mother. I'd let them do almost anything if it was cute. As long as it didn't threaten their lives I'd probably laugh when they were bad. As they got older I'd give them all the chores I hate.
They WOULD be good cooks though -- they'd be doing stuff in the kitchen from the time they could snap the ends off of beans and husk corn. Heh. We'd end up eating lots of beans and corn. And peas! I haven't had shelled peas in ages. It would be a little kitcheny sweatshop to be sure.

Paranoid much?
"They then exit the house, and run into the street, where a Christian is nailed to a large, wooden X. He is being burned alive. A crowd of atheists stand around him, all wearing black robes and hoods."
And this exchange is very sad:
HOVIND: One thing is for sure, if you do nothing it will probably get worse. But it is surprising, if you do nothing with cancer your life expectancy is somewhere between 6 and 10 years. If you take chemo your life expectancy is between 1 and 2 years.
WOMAN: They want her to take radiation. And that is my greatest fear. I believe the FDA about as much as I believe in evolution.
HOVIND: There you go. [...] I think the last thing I would do would be to take the medical profession's approach.
