OK, who here wrote this??????

DEAR ABBY: I lost quite a bit of weight on a great diet that worked well for me. I did it for my health and because I was tired of carrying all that extra weight around. Everyone has been complimentary, except my husband.
He accuses me of “setting a bad example” for our kids, complains that the diet “costs too much,” and says we can’t share a meal at a nice restaurant together anymore. (Not true!) He also makes unwanted comments about what I’m eating, how much I’m eating and when I’m eating it.
I have invited him to go on the diet with me, because he could stand to lose about 20 pounds himself, especially around the middle. He refuses and insists that all he needs to do is exercise. Well, it hasn’t worked, and now he needs to buy larger clothes while I am able to get into the clothes I wore when we first met.
I thought my husband would enjoy the new me, and now I am wondering what could be wrong. Jealousy? Fear of losing me? What’s your opinion? -- PUZZLED BUT STILL GOING STRONG

Definitely seems like it could be someone on Medifast... although could be some other program to. Different things work for different people. Shame on the hubby though.

I admit it. It was me.

Oh, wait, I'm not married.

And I thought Abby died?

Yeah, well, I though Elvis had died too, but I saw him on American Idol the other day ~ and that's a LIVE show. Uh hmm.

Things that make you go "hmmm."

Her twin sister, who wrote Ann Landers, died several years ago. Abby's still alive and kicking, although her daughter writes the column now.

That's another thread, girl.
