[quote=Anonymous]Of course you're going to get slaughtered here.

I am 5'7" and weighed 160 pounds prior to getting pregnant. Then I gained 30 pounds during pregnancy. I lost some of the weight while breastfeeding, but by 5 months post partum, I was still hovering around 170 pounds. It's hard to adjust your eating habits after pregnancy, particularly if you have a pregnancy where you are hungry all the time. People get into food routines and they are often hard to break. People overeat and then have a bowl of ice cream and it all adds up pretty fast. As we age, it becomes harder to lose weight and easier to gain it. Many people have a hard time accepting and responding to that.

I will say the unpopular thing and suggest that you just talk to your wife about it. I'm not saying to be an asshole and say YOU ARE A FAT-FAT AND I DON'T WANT YOU. But talk to her about how you'd like to support her getting healthy post-pregnancy. You can frame it as an overall health conversation, as something you do together, whatever you think will be the least offensive.[/quote]
