When I married my husband I had lost a bunch of weight, kept it off for 2 years, and turned 50 in the best shape of my life. But he harassed me about eating weirdly (Pamela Peeke's program, basically the same as Andrew Weil's anti-inflammation diet) until I gradually let it all go. Gained the...

I don't mind answering questions. About the house: He won't trash it because he'd be hurting himself. He needs the money from the sale, because he's not going to cut back on his lifestyle ever. He's planning on moving to near where his son lives in Texas once it sells. Yes, I'm still...
