[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do you want her want her to work out because she’s fat? I think you need to get really honest about your motivations if you are looking for advice. It’s an anonymous board so you are better served being blunt.

I hate working out. I never go to the gym, but I like being thin, so I eat less. Being thin gives you more energy, so unless you want your DW to go mountain climbing with you in the summers, it might be easier to just put the fork down.[/quote]

I want her to be thinner yes. Both for my sake and hers.[/quote]

It’s not all about fitness and exercise, it’s about food choices.  I’m a woman, definitely could lose some pounds, but my thin, super fast metabolism DH has the palate of a teenager and we end of eating crap.  He never gains weight, I pack on the pounds.  And yes, I’m an adult and can make decisions for myself but when given the choice between a burger and fries or a salad I’m hitting the burger 100% of the time.  Your metabolism may also be fast so you may be able to eat junk where she gains if she eats the same food.  Maybe healthier food options could be added in.[/quote]

This is very similar to our situation, but with the difference being that even though I'm the one with the fast metabolism, I am usually the one pushing for keeping our food options limited to healthier items. Like you, I'm choosing the junk food every time if its available. She has gone on healthy diets in the past, and when she did she worried that she needed to also buy "regular" food for me and DD. I told her I would be fine eating healthier food, and DD usually likes the meals and will also eat fruit if there's no junk food without much complaining. So just don't buy junk food an there won't be a temptation. That'll last a few weeks, but then the junk food shows back up, so I dunno. Sometimes when its her turn to cook she'll say she doesn't feel like it and will just order out. I offer to cook instead, but she declines. So instead I just decline the to-go food and cook a healthy option for myself.

I dunno.[/quote]
