    The Girl Before And After!

    I find it a bit odd that he's so interested in how other women look. Why not concentrate on and enjoy his wife and her perfect thinness rather than berate women who don't meet his standards? Why does he care?

    The Girl Before And After!

    Yeah, I have always made it a point to tell my kids that we're working on health, not weight. And I don't nitpick their meal choices outside the home. I want them to learn to make the right choices and continue that ability as adults. My 12 year old is currently dealing with some health issues...

    The Girl Before And After!

    That's a good question. If my husband made the kind of comments Karlon has, I'd be stressed all the time, worrying about gaining a pound. No wonder his wife gets in a bajillion steps a day.

    The Girl Before And After!

    Taller people often carry the weight better, too, giving the impression that they don't weigh as much as they might.

    The Girl Before And After!

    I've heard intermittent fasting is a bit trickier for women. We have to plan around our cycles, etc. It's a lot easier for men to implement.

    The Girl Before And After!

    I have a friend who was slim when she married but over the years has gained weight and has a myriad of health issues. She's told me she's tried to lose weight so many times BUT her husband refuses to give up the sweets, chips, sodas, etc and as many of us know, it's a lot harder to eat healthy...

    What are UFOs to you?

    Dinosaur candy? Lol My grandma LOVED all the Jurassic Park movies. Never got a chance to watch #3 with her, though.

    I haven't seen Jurassic Park 3. After that scene, I'd definitely like to see it!

    What are UFOs to you?

    There are some remote places that have seen pterodactyls. Perhaps that's what's coming out to play.

    How Much Have Raises in Rent, Mortgages, Insurance, HOA's, Property Taxes, etc. Affected You and Your Family the Past Few Years?

    We pay as much extra principal as we can but it's not a lot. We have 9 kids to feed and food is expensive. Our electrical and water bills keep going up, too, even though we're not using more electricity/water than last year (inflation! 😡 ). Anyway, we do what we can. And we appreciate the low...

    How Much Have Raises in Rent, Mortgages, Insurance, HOA's, Property Taxes, etc. Affected You and Your Family the Past Few Years?

    That's something we made sure to check before buying. Our lender doesn't ding for extra payments or early pay-off. We have a fixed interest rate but every year our mortgage still gets "adjusted" due to insurance/property value. 🙄 We're paying $300 more a month than when we bought our house, 3...

    Trump's Speech to Congress

    Personally, I don't think we're on the brink of a global conflict but more likely on the brink of a One World Order.

    About men stealing women!

    How to stop men from stealing your women? Be a better man. Live for God, first. Stop sexually abusing yourself. Be the kind of man a woman would want to spend her life with. Continue praying for a wife. Keep in mind that God might have called you to be single for a reason and, if that is the...

    About men stealing women!

    Nobody here is telling you to debase yourself and dishonor Yahweh by masterbating. Most everybody struggles with the temptation of sexual sin. Not everyone acts on that temptation. The fact that you justify it because you're not married speaks more about your character and walk with Christ than...

    He says it's okay for men to have concubines and is justifying adultery and wants to be a pastor?!? 😮

    About men stealing women!

    First of all, what is "a long period of time" to you? A year? A year is a reasonable time to observe someone in different situations and get to know them before agreeing to get married. I agree Christian men shouldn't be toxic or abusive, etc but how is a potential mate supposed to know YOU...

    Ah. I see now. That's incredibly sad.

    About men stealing women!

    Lol. What in the world? Is this like in the Bible, when the tribe of Benjamin were "allowed" to steal daughters from the other tribes, so they could get married?
