Quote HistoryQuoted: Why did you let her blimp out like that? Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: Before we got married and had kids my wife was a bodybuilder and martial artist, so she was always meaty but in a good way. She weighed around 150 but was fit and stacked with solid muscle. Now almost 4 years later she's getting fat and soft pushing 200, meanwhile I'm in the best shape I've ever been in my life at 33 years old, sitting at almost 200 myself but I'm also 6 feet and I've packed on muscle, my wife is 5'8" and 27 years old. Why did you let her blimp out like that? Because I like more cushion for the pushin! |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Not mine. She’s curvy and thicc with tits that would make a thin women fall over and unable to do a sit up. And she’s a doctor. And she’s the most beautiful women I’ve ever seen. And you are a stock market mastermind.  You have the world figured out.

Quote HistoryQuoted: Obese is a much lower threshold than a lot of people realize Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: If left to my own devices I could easily be fat and happy. But THEY wouldn't be happy. So I keep that shit in check for them. #thestruggleisreal /media/mediaFiles/sharedAlbum/B926BC70-2451-4EC1-A889-3A3C070B9F9D-404.gif I don’t understand this mindset. I have nobody that I’m beholden to when it comes to my physical condition. I just don’t want to be fat. The food is disgusting, the fit of the clothes is awful, it’s harder to do everything. I can’t carry a pistol comfortably or get in and out of the car/bed/whatever, the lifestyle is detrimental to every aspect of your health, you’re a detriment to those around you because you are slow and take up too much space in a car/bus/airplane and you are a liability in an emergency situation. You are harder to deal with for emergency, medical, public safety folks, etc, etc, etc. Being happy with being obese means you are happy with being a burden on society. I didn't say obese to the point of being disabled or a burden to others. When I was fat (overweight) I got around just fine. Just looked like shit.  Obese is a much lower threshold than a lot of people realize I agree. I was objectively in the *overweight* category by BMI. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: I agree. I was objectively in the *overweight* category by BMI. BMI for folks with some muscle doesn't work very well. BMI has me in overweight category. 6'2 205 pounds have spent 31 years residential roofing, workout 4 days a week with 3 days of cardio. My cardio consists of 100 burpess with loaded plate carrier then 45 minutes on a bike, all monitored with a heart rate monitor so I know what zone I'm working in. now if you sit a desk job and don't workout or move heavy stuff, then it might be applicable. |

It's hard to resist a shitty lifestyle when it's constantly in your face. Rollercoaster as fuck. https://i.imgur.com/1xSyrEL.jpeg Nice! Mine happened almost overnight seems like. Right about when I turned 25 I went from a very active to a sedentary job, got pregnant, and quit smoking all in the span of 5 months. Gained 60 pounds during that pregnancy and only lost 20. 2 more pregnancies with no excess weight gain but I just sat at that 40+ pounds for about 10 years. He had gained about the same amount over that time span. Then we went out for our anniversary and wound up at Marble Slab and as we're eating our ice cream he says, "We've gotten fat and I'm not happy. We need to do something." Once we decided on a tactic (Paleo) and put it into play it took (and I'm just now realizing the irony of this) 5 months to lose it. Because we eat right on a day-to-day basis I don't sweat the splurges. If something comes up where we can't/don't eat right for a few days (annual big family lake trip usually does it ) we just get back to it when we can. Used to be those times would act as a metabolic reset and we'd drop what we'd gained plus a few more pounds within a week of eating right again. As we've gotten older (48 and 44) though it takes longer, a bit more effort, and doesn't usually result in the extra couple of pounds gone like it once did.

My wife actually lost about 20 lbs from when we met over the 28 years we've been together (including two kids).

Guys have a tendency to measure under their gut, then think they’re just as in shape as they were years ago. As long as that 34 can still fit over their ass, they claim it. |

One of my good friends is pushing 280 and somehow sucks his gut in to fit 35 wranglers and he will happily tell you he can wear the same size jeans he did in high school. Some how over the years his ass has transferred to the front like the pic above. Flat ass and big gut but rocking those 35s. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: I’ve thought about this same thing. Multiple theories. - Women gain weight as a safety mechanism. Imagine living in the ghetto as a hot lady. Not safe, stressful. Hence why so many poor people are fat. - Women feel stronger when they’re a bigger mass. If they don’t like feeling physically inferior to their man, they just eat until they outweigh them. - Food at restaurants is the same serving size for both men and women. A 130lbs lady should only eat half her plate, but doing that feels weird so they keep eating. - Democrat women have mental disorders and eat for their depression. Lol wtf I have no words for you |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Women get dressed up and worry about looks when they'll be around other women, IE., to compete with other women. Indirectly to attract men, but directly to compete with the other women they're encountering (aka competing against). That is probably correct for women who can only bring their looks to the table. If you're willing to accept a woman as your equal you have a lot more options and (unless you're nothing more to them than a paycheck) you can get a woman who's attractive, smart, hard working, and treats the marriage as a meeting of equals where you each contribute your skills and knowledge to make your pairing much better than each individual could ever be. |

Was doing some window shopping on Bumble recently. If any of you other mid-50s guys want to be depressed, search on women our own age. Yuck.
A chick in her 30s or early 40s with a pretty face can sometimes land on the right side side of desirable even if she is overweight. Not so for time-ravaged faces. Few of the women post anything but headshots and that is an obesity warning even if their heads aren’t very fat. And they don’t seem to see the problem. One lady put in her profile “last picture is a full-body shot since that seems to be so important to you guys.” Well, yeah. LOL. It’s pretty damned important to men. (And to be fair, I wouldn’t expect women to be attracted to fat guys.) |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Good point, I've noticed this as well. In the 90s and 00s, the only tattoos were on the back or maybe ankle. Now it's like they intentionally put them on the middle of their legs to destroy their looks. Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: You forgot another reason: A greater expanse of skin provides more area to be covered with body art. Apparently, a memo went out some years ago to all the hippos that the most sure-fire way to increase their sex-appeal is to cover themselves in tats. While the effectiveness of this technique may be up for debate, it is undeniable that fat chicks have adopted this strategy in mass. Good point, I've noticed this as well. In the 90s and 00s, the only tattoos were on the back or maybe ankle. Now it's like they intentionally put them on the middle of their legs to destroy their looks. The tattoos help hide the stretch marks, cellulite, and pimples. |
