A start to regaining my confidence…is this the right things to be doing???

I have been in a relationship for just over a year…we are going through a lot of problems right now…I don’t feel respected…but I also have no self esteem left to get away from the relationship…he knows this…all I do is worry about us and our problems and somedays I know it’s not worth dealing with but I do love him…today for no apparent reason I started thinking to myself..I need to find a hobby…I can’t think of anything else to do but start exersizing and working on building my self esteem…I am what I consider to be VERY over weight…I am 5’5” and about 240lbs…and I know by doing something about myself I would be less apt to let him walk all over me…if I take a brisk walk every day (30-40 min) drink 6-8 glasses of water, eat smaller portions and work out every other day (things I can do at home, I can afford a gym membership), cut out junk food (seems to be the only thing thats makes me happy anymore) will I lose weight or am I wasting my time doing it by myself?

uncleanly boyfriend?

I don’t know what to do about my boyfriend. He is a little piglet. The bathroom is a total mess. I don’t even feel like showering in there any more. He lets clothes lie around. He has acid reflux and bad breath resulting from it. Yet he does not order his meds in time and eats junk food. Recently he contracted conjunctivitis because he is too lazy to take out his contacts for a week or so. And he keeps them totally unclean, constantly rubs his eyes without washing hands etc. In the end he infected me with the pink eye too. I tried to talk to him, telling him that it is important to watch out for hygiene to preserve his health – but to no avail. he perceives me as nagging whenever I say something. Sometimes he even ” forgets” to brush his teeth in the evening. I would like to stay with him. But I fear for my own health in a surrounding like this and with him having seemingly no sense of cleanliness at all. Am I too much of a neat freak? Should I break up over issues like these?

Encase of emergencies, besides food and first aid, what other items are good to store away for survival?

I will NEVER forget the winter of 200 in Seward, Alaska. I had just moved up to Alaska from the lower 48 states in the middle of January. Alaska was experiencing record snow fall levels that year. So when I got there houses where cover above the door tops. To me that seemed like the Alaska that I thought it should be. People were really expressing that “OH NO! This is not normal for us even up here.” Soon, a chain of 36 avalanches shut down our only road for days on end. The main supply routes was cot off and we were isolated for a long time. It was mass hysteria! the only 2 grocery stores were absolutely bare of almost anything but junk food. Anything essential to preserve life was GONE! I started to worry but the Alaskans took it in stride. 3 days later the US Army flew food in for us and water. So I learned my lesson hard about storing food but what else might be a good idea especially in a cold weather environment? I got first aid stuff covered also.
