The problem is my wife. I have loved her from the beginning of our relationship and we have been married 20 years. Bui she no longer looks like she used to and she does t fed the same i ther. She has become so heavy that the Fai actually hangs on her body. I used to be proud of the Way she looked and i told her so often. Now All the Pride and warm feeling Are Gene. I am ashamed hat i can t accept her or her Fine qualities but i am completely turned off by those Roll of fat across her Middle and on her nips. Then i get mad because 1 know she does t have to look like that. The woman eats twice a much As she should and never passes up the Rich and fattening foods. She re fuses to go on a Dici. Exercise is out of the question. She will never stand if she can sit she would t think of waiting if she can ride. I have told her How i feel but it makes no difference. She does t Wani to talk about it and she does t want me to talk about it either. The Romance has gone out of our lives and i am bitter. I am also disappointed Hurt and angry. Yet 1 still love her and i want my old girl Back. Is there anything you can Tay that will help me understand All this or can you Sty Tome Lhing that will make her understand How important it is to get Back to her Normal weight hurting and needing guidance Dotti hurting there ii nothing you or anyone eur can Sty thai will Mike your wife Low on ounce.

Many men Joe la to overweight wires. Some even make excuses by saying i like a woman with Tome flesh on her  letter Yon get Tome counselling. You need to explore you feelings and gel to the Bottom of your anger and  maybe when you understand Yonneff better no attitude toward your wife will change and he win want to Allm Down to please Yon. Meanwhile has her Doelz Polun to Iff she needs to hear from a physician that so much excess weight can shorten her life. Dear Ann Landers Yon printed a letter from a Reader who Laid one morning when i was dragging my Fanny when 1 read that line i saw red. My Mother was bom at the turn of the Century. Her name was Fanny. Somehow in 1945 people began to use Fanny As a synonym for a certain pan of the body. It was vulgar and degrading and she haled it i have written at least 100 letters to people in the Media who used my Mother s name in this Way. Sever Al responded and apologized. But it continues nevertheless 1 even got into fist fights Over in in my younger Days but Mother told me to give up that it was t Worth it. Well i m not jiving up.

Ami Ottil. . �51 putting the bite on annoying salesmen door to door salesmen can you Trust them i m the Type of person who won t allow a door Tiv door Salesman past the threshold of my Home. I started thinking about this Trail in myself the other Day and wondered where it came from. Then 1 remembered. I grew up with eight Brothers and Sisters. My mom had quite a handful and it soon became apparent that she might need some help with her tribe. Most people would hire a baby Sitter not my mom. We got a dug. Not just any dog mind you do one would give Lassie a real run Lor her Money when it comes to smarts. Our of j was named Prince an Apt title if Ever i heard one. Pence was a big Black Collie and he was wonderful. Mom could leave us kids outside with Prince All Day Long if she wanted to and never worry a Bil. We could t fight run Oul into the Street or get into any thing thai might Hurt us. Prince would always be there tugging on our Arm or Barking reproving by we always got the message and quit whatever it was we were doing. One just did not argue with Prince. He look his Job seriously Loo did Prince. Every Lime mom had another baby. Prince would hide in the base ment for Days overcome with the added responsibility. Sooner or later he would come out and begin his duties and peace would reign. The twins really threw him but he came around in the end. You re probably wondering what in the world this has to do with door to door salesmen. Well Prince loved my mom As much a she loved him and he soon Learned her likes and dislikes. Guess what my mom s biggest dislike was you got it salesmen. I Don t know How he knew but Prince could spot one of those Guys from a mile away and he would t even let Ihm get out of their car. Prince loved every one else in the world but he could not abide a door to door Salesman. With Prince mom never had to worry about thai problem. 1 wish we All had a Prince but we Don t. But we can Al be wary of Guys who Are trying to take our Money and give us something that is not Worth the Price. I have never seen anything Worth the Price of what a door to door Sells. A seems like military personnel Are their prime tar gels. They know what to say and they say it with flair. The Bottom line is they have your Money and you have something you probably did not Wani or need. The Best idea is not to let them in. They Are Selling door to door illegally nine times out of 10 anyhow. If you listen Don t take what they say at face value. Think about it first and Tell them you Don t Wani to sign right away. Usually they will pressure you to sign now they make their Money on impulse buying. If they do pressure you Send them packing. If you do sign you Slit can change your mind within the Neit three Days but you have to Send them a registered letter return receipt telling them of your Deci Sion. A phone Cah will not cancel the contract. They will sometimes Tell you differently. Remember they Are not concerned for you but for their own wallets. When a Salesman comes to my door i think about Prince and my mom and i smile. He never even gelt past the hallway.
