[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’d guess we’d all like our spouses to be fit. For most people thought, attraction is linked to more than just weight. We love and are attracted to the whole person. And most people are not going to leave their spouse because they are not as fit as when they were younger. We accept people change over time.

The theme on this thread is women gaining weight. It takes such [b]dedicated and time consuming measures to stay fit as we age[/b], it’s just not worth it for most women. While staying healthy should be a priority, diet and exercise to please your spouse isn't as important as other life endeavors. [/quote]

100% dead wrong: calorie control is all it takes to prevent unattractive weight gain. Calorie control is not a "time consuming measure".
I agree that most women do not feel their husbands are "worth it" to control their calorie intake. Quite sad, really.[/quote]

Yes, calorie restriction does lead to weight loss. Most people cannot live with sustained calorie restriction. It’s maddening to live hungry all the time. For some people, our minds and bodies crave food when we restrict what we eat. Living in a perpetual state of hunger makes you grouchy. For people who don’t have intense food cravings or eat what they want, they’ll never understand. They just say to eat less, not understanding how hard that is to do. [/quote]

But the rewards have been so worth it for me.[/quote]

I know this is off topic, but what are the rewards?  Assuming that you are reasonably healthy with good cholesterol, have no joint problems, can play with your kids, and run a few miles every couple of days.  (Asking for a friend...)

I just don't really see the big pay off.
