I do not understand what viewing information they are hiding about the pictures. Are they into swapping photos with other couples or having some out of the norm marital behaviors?

Why can’t she take out a retraining order against her husband and refuse to allow him within 25 miles of their home. This way she can take her kids to school and she can work without his interference. Could you loan her the money for a divorce? Let her pay back the loan. Nevertheless, help her get out of his control. Once they are divorced, he becomes a stocker and legal actions can be taken against him.

No money, a clean nice home for her and the kids sure beats a home for women and children buy it is coming with a big price to pay, her own being. I believe the kids will grow to understand what dad is doing and this could cause bad behaviors in their lives. They both need help, if not, sign the kids over to her mother. Remove his parental rights for the kids’ safety. I believe he will kill her if she leaves him. I don’t see him worried about the children.

My husband is all man who takes an hour longer than myself to get ready. I just get up an hour before he does and that solves the bathroom issues. When he's ready to go, I better be ready as he will pace, LOL.  We enjoy church together and do most everything together except we work opposite schedules at the same workplace. We share the work load at home. I cut and stack wood along side him with my own chain saw. We both cook, although I do 90% of the house cleaning and all of the laundry, he does all of the vehicles upkeep and repair. I do most of the yard work, occassionally he'll help me weed-wack. When I had my stroke last year he had to do everything for about two months. He is a wonderful man. With only half the income now and me disabled we remain living in his shop with roll up doors. Our love handles any discomfort from crowded space or lack of luster.

Identity Theft.

We’ve all heard about this, how many really take precautions.

When you go to the Dentist and they ask you for your Social Security Number, Drivers License, Date of Birth, etc. most folks dish out this information. They have no idea who in that office will see this information or what computer protections are utilized in the practice. Same problem at Doctor Offices, Work Place events, etc, even when looking for furniture, a home, when will folks stop giving out information? Recently I purchased a used car, paying cash, they wanted all of this information, I emphatically said no. I got the car they go no information. We are our own worst enemies. We give out personal habits, household information, etc to strangers on the telephone. Do you have a secure line? I don’t care if it’s the credit card company, you’re bank, you’re work, etc. DO NOT give out personal information. Set up code words for identity purposes such as your favorite pet’s name, etc. That’s all for the moment.

I have 100 pounds to loose.

I would like to weigh 150.

I am size 22-24. I would like to be a size 11-12. That's half my size.

If I can take this challenge, you can also. Lets go for it. See my progress post tomorrow.

At Nearly 55 and 250 pounds, Once I was a City Princess, a runner, a soldier (Womens Army Corps, Army, National Guard, Retired (22 years or military), now I'm an American Legion Service Officer). My military uniform skirt will not button around my right leg! I volunteer with the Red Cross and have to wear a mans vest. Big Mama with a strong back.

I am FAT, not big boned, not overweight, not obese, buy grossly FAT.

I am excited about Dr. Phils program. I wish he could use his name and put me in the program. I am competitive. I need to be accountable. I watched the show yesterday. I am taking the challendge in hopes my progress gets Dr Phil's attention and Dr Phil puts me in the program. My husband (normal size) does NOT believe I will stick with the program, he states, "you've been on a diet the entire time I've know you."

I walked this morning. Got half way to the corner and my husband picked me up, he was worries about me. I will try further in the morning. I had a half a bagel, grapenuts at lunch and will have a light dinner. I have drank my eight glasses today.   Will try more liquids tomorrow. I want those 14 years. Mary Ann
