Karen had such a gentle speaking voice. It's like you could see the gentle love that flowed from within her angel heart.

God bless you Karen Anne.

It's sad to watch this, bcause it looked like Richard controlled Karen's every move. In the interview, he should have got the heck out of the way. But without that voice of Karen's, Richard could not have made it. His solo albums went nowhere. This was only an example, but it seemed that everyone controlled Karen---except Karen, which maybe explains her eating disorder. I can only guess. I know this much.....she is terribly missed........

@analavig I'm sure you look alot prettier now than when you were 85 lbs, I used to have eating disorder and I was seriously underweight, then I gained my weight back after years of battling, my organs r very healthy, and my skin are glowy, even my crush asked me out!! People tell me I look better than when I was "sick", so don't try to lose weight, because you're beautiful when you're confident and healthy, that's how true women should feel :) <3

Poor Karen, love is blind, she fell for a bad guy :( I think Richard knew that Tom was after her money, that's why he didnt like him

[SuperPeanutify]

No one knows Richard a lot. I'm sure he loved Karen very much and wanted the best for her. No human is perfect.

@tinketteful - I was thinking the same thing. You would never see him too far away from her, and not only that, but periodically you can see her look at him to get his "approval" or something.

I'm jealous when I see these scenes, KAREN CARPENTER! WOMAN OF MY DREAMS!

@arfies I haven't heard abt,but i will check this out....

Thank you very much for your advises,i will follow!!

[arfies]

@analavig 132 lbs is a perfectly normal weight, and I envy that- 85 lbs is NOT normal. But if you truly want to eat healthier and lose weight while still getting necessary nutrients (REALLY, REALLY IMPORTANT- do NOT starve yourself! Get help! Karen would've wanted you to!) have you tried the Paleo Diet? (or Primal Blueprint?) Starving yourself will only cause your metabolism to go down, making it harder to lose weight. But still, the goal should be health, not looks.

[analavig]

I can understand her a little bit abt the weight problem,i fell the same way and some times i starve myself to try to loose weight,and then i can go on for 3 days,

but i started have head ache,stomach ache,so i can't go longer,but at least when i started to try to eat;the portion is smaller...I have tryed all kinds of diets and i fell that i can't loose any weight,except when i starve myself.I can't loose my curves...and this depresses me....I used to be 85lbs now i'm 132lbs and i can't go down

@no1cfielder Or he was just really, really eager to get back to work.
