Meh. My husband got fat and stayed that way for years. I didn't leave him. He took up tobacco use. I didn't leave him. He drank heavily for a while. I didn't leave him. I loved him through it all and continually encouraged him to make healthier choices, even though he had none of those habits when I married him. And after a while, he quit the drinking. And he lost weight. And he's made a commitment to quit using tobacco. A spouse's duty is to be there unconditionally, helping to steer their partner back to better ways of being. You don't just give up when the going gets tough. He's never given up on me through any of my selfish choices, and I've not given up on him. We're a team.

YMMV.

There is no double standard for me.  I would expect the same.  As far as she and her husband go, her husband seems willing to put effort into it.  Again, don't think that is what this post is about.  Of course you put effort into it.  What happens when the effort is all on one side and not the other?  Just be a beta and take it?

OP,

Your futuristic wife develops breast cancer: how long until you pitch her?

You see, breast cancer grows off female hormones.  Part of the treatment requires anti hormone meds to prevent the cancer from coming back.

These hormones that make a woman a woman, also cause cancer. So, most women on anti estrogen meds have a dry, atrophied vagina that can make intercourse painful for them. Not always, but sometimes.

So OP when do you divorce your wife because you can't fuck her like when you were in your 20s, 30s or 40s?

You sound like the "he man" kind of guy who needs regular sex.

If she needs a mastectomy, are you going to pressure her into immediate reconstruction so you're satisfied? She may need radiation treatment, but your libido is important here....

I would still love him. He wouldn't him anymore. There is a difference between giving up on someone who's picked up some bad habits and chaining yourself to a criminal. I am not by any stretch of the imagination perfect, and I wouldn't stay with him if he chose to perpetrate criminal activities.

If you have questions, look at her mom. If you can't see yourself being attracted to her mom when you're at a similar age, then it probably won't work out for you.

If you end up with a smokin hot and charming wife with great genetics, ask yourself these questions:

How much of a jerk do you have to be till she kicks you to the curb?

How much of a grumpy old man do you have to be till she kicks you to the curb?

How poor do you have to get till she kicks you to the curb?

No woman wants to remain fat.  If they gain weight then be a positive influence.  There is a strong likelyhood she will chose a healthy lifestyle.

My wife has stuck with me while I struggled through my career, education, and health issues.  I have done the same through her struggles.

She has gained weight in the past but can take it off - and has.  She is smokin hot and charming too.

Go ahead and quote where I’ve posted anything that said health reasons were not understandable.

I’ll sit here and wait.

A mature person doesn’t fling shit to prove a point. You don’t agree with my position? Move on. Like a mature person would.

Love is not allowing your partner to needlessly become fat and unhealthy. Love is being there for your partner. Love is supporting them to be a better person. Everyday I make an effort to be a better person, better husband and I expect the same from my wife. We have 1 go at this life thing and I want our lives to be everything we both want it to possibly be.

Fun fact: if your spouse is eating themselves into an early grave, there’s probably an issue that they’re eating through. Try talking to them and resolving it. Like a mature person.

Turning a blind eye to the problem and proclaiming “it’s love” is a cop out.

I'm of two minds about this kind of ARF bullshit.

On one hand, if a husband or wife stops giving a damn and keeps on not giving a damn even after their spouse is clearly unhappy about it, that's a bad sign. Both of them have to want to care and want to improve if the marriage is going to be satisfying and happy.

On the other hand, if either of them says, "If you get fat I'm outta here" (or "If you lose your job/stop providing in an acceptable manner to me and I'm outta here") then they clearly have had a shitty attitude right from the start. I wouldn't want to marry someone who had that attitude and I'd consider it a horrible character flaw.

Good luck getting married with your clearly shitty attitude, OP.

Wife of 15 years has put on about 30 pounds after 3 kids.  She is not at an unhealthy weight and most of it went to her TnA.  When she puts that ass to work it's worth every pound if you know what I'm saying.  No way in hell I am kicking that to the curb.  Hell I am going to go buy her some jewelry for being such an awesome wife/mom and will probably give her a pearl necklace later.

She drinks zero sodas, cut out sugar, carbs and is on a full Keto diet.

I am on the same diet except for sodas, we eat lots of red meat, bacon and chicken. There is no bread or sweets in my home except for my sons cereal.

Simple diet and chow time is great.

No processed foods etc and my BP is down to 105/69, not bad for a lazy 48 yr old.

After 15 years together the girlfriend and I both stacked on a few extra LBs.
Fast food, beer, lazy etc.

She was getting to the point where I was considering having "the talk" about weight gain and frankly, I wouldn't have been surprised if she came to me to talk about my beer belly.

One day she said "I am getting fat and I don't like it, I am going to try this whole Keto thing".
She didn't pressure me to go along but I decided to do it to support her and work on getting rid of my flab.

Both of us are at our HS weight and feel fantastic. We both dropped about 20lbs each.

You divorced the mother of your children because she gained weight?  Yes I understand that's a lot of weight but seriously have you ever read the statistics on what divorce and what it does to children?

I was always fit and thin--even after my pregnancies.  I was blessed with very good genes.  However I am now 53 and have arthritis which makes it so I can't get out and move like I used to.  In the past year I have gained 40 pounds.  I've been doing all I can to lose it but it's hard as F*ck.  I'm so thankful my husband married me and not my weight.

Read the rest of my posts where I explain the weight was a sign of the impending doom that was addiction, refusal to work, refusal to get healthy, baptizing my kids in her church behind my back while I was out of town working, neglecting our kids, refusal to do basic house hold chores, extreme bible thumping, and violent outbursts because I would rather pay the bills and refused to give her shopping money to go buy shit she didn't need.

The weight was just one factor in a long line of horseshit. And if she was such an immaculate mother to my children, why do I have full custody, and why haven't they seen or heard from their mother in close to 8 years now?

It's relatively easy to lose weight when your hormones are functioning properly but it's nearly impossible to do so when they aren't.

Agreed - but that is the minority. Majority of those overweight to obese consume massive amounts of shit food and drink and live a lazy, sedimentary lifestyle. You can't cry about hormones and thyroids etc when you inhale two big macs, XL fries, three XL sodas, and wash it down with a bag of potato chips. Your body (save for extreme circumstances) cannot make something out of nothing. Put in shit + shit activity level = look like shit. Fix the diet alone and most of the weight falls off. Add just moderate exercise and there ya go.

It's the motivation and self control most people lack, not a medical condition.

I think a lot of it is genetic, and of course lifestyle. Also breastfeeding really helps. My wife has maintained her figure throughout having 8 children. It’s very nice, but if for some reason if she did not I’d still lover her the same and smash it at every opportunity.
Her with #7 Maybe 110 lbs.

I would recommend compassion but make a plan. I have some experience with this because I counsel over weight women regularly. Women who are more than 25# over weight suffer from multiple issues. Most often depression, over active adrenals, under active thyroid as well as insulin resistance and estrogen resistance. It is very difficult for obese women to lose weight particularly if she is big busted, works and has small children. She needs your support and compassion and she professional help from several care providers.

First we are talking about a person you have committed your life to be with and most likely the mother of your children.  Yes eating less is what is needed but in order to thrive a woman needs more than nutrition. We need acceptance, security,  identity and purpose and often outside of eating have little ability to meet their needs. The fact is staying committed to a healthy diet takes a lot of willpower and persistence then needs nurturing and support. It's important to look at your marriage as a team. A good team doesn't look at what the other members lack but for ways they can assist.  As long as you are committed to placing blame and feeling injured by your wife's obesity you will perpetuate the problem.

Nutrition. Yes

Starbucks “coffees”-no

Fast food- no

Sugar snacks- no.

Our country is turning into a fat slob and people are making excuses and justifications for it.

It’s disgusting.

OP sounds like a fag.

Wife of 15 years has put on about 30 pounds after 3 kids.  She is not at an unhealthy weight and most of it went to her TnA.  When she puts that ass to work it's worth every pound if you know what I'm saying.  No way in hell I am kicking that to the curb.  Hell I am going to go buy her some jewelry for being such an awesome wife/mom and will probably give her a pearl necklace later.

Sounds like she needs to stay that way

Reading Naamah's post about her husband, who went through ups and downs and gaining lots of weight, drinking too much (etc) and what I read in her post is such love for her husband. She loves HIM as a person.

I'm not getting that same vibe from some of the guys here. They talk about the wife (probably a wife they don't yet have) as an employee or a 'product' that is defective and not living up to the hype and they just want a refund because the bitch got fat.

I'm not saying that it would be okay to sit by passively and watch someone destroy their health and say nothing about it. But the support and love that Naamah and you talk about, it just ain't there. (Not with all the posts here, some guys talk about a plan and seem to have compassion, but others just ooze resentment. Oh yeah, I'm sure most women would just blossom under that environment! )

My sammich maker has been 115 pounds since we met 15 years ago, even after 2 kids.  She has always eaten healthy food.  I can't tell you how many fat and overweight friends she has tried to help.  100% failure rate because none of them could control their food cravings.  None.  I chose wisely.

My brother is built, and very athletic. His fiance is fat. Probably 165ish.

He tries so hard to get her to eat better and exercise, but It never happens.
She is very smart and nice, and he wants to make it work.

Funny shit because thats why he divorced his high school sweetheart.
She got to be over 200 lbs!!
