A very high perecentage of marriages fail when female partners lose weight because the your weight is a security blanket for him. More often than not it's an issue of anxiety and control- if you are dependent on him because you are fat and insecure and no one else wants you: great.

If you gain confidence, become assertive, not so dependent: yuck. He will say it's about your lack of curves, but it is more than that. He likes feeling in control.

Exactly. He probably sees your weight as a way to control you.
