I’ve been married for 4 years to a wonderful, loving man. While I have maintained my weight at a very reasonable 110 lbs since we’ve been married, my husband has gained 25-30 lbs since then, and has basically “let himself go.” He keeps telling me that I am too skinny and should gain weight. I’m not sure if he’s telling me that because he feels inferior to me physically, or if he really thinks I’m underweight.

This week, the article on “How to Eat Cheap” explains that one dollar can buy so many more calories of junk food. The author incorrectly calculates that over a thousand calories of potato chips can be purchased for a dollar (last time I checked, this was an 8-ounce bag and cost well over 3 dollars).

Kids running around outside is great. It gets them out of their parents’ hair, and they get a much-needed dose of exercise.

Well, it does feel weird to be writing about your life and experience online. I am just a normal woman who goes through ups and downs in life. I am 25 years old, graduating next year with my BA in hr. I was in a long relationship with a wonderful man for almost three years, and just broke up recently.

I’m a professional blogger, so I’m a tiny apartment and broken down Honda Civic away from homeless–especially now that the economy is a disaster.
