[quote=Anonymous]My first thought is, as others have said, your partner should never be cruel and it sounds like that is exactly what he is doing.  Saying unkind things about your weight that will only make you feel worse about yourself and do nothing to help you get to a healthier place is not right. But, I would be interested in knowing OP, is he generally a supportive spouse?  Does he encourage and support your dreams and goals, do his share of the housework and parenting, provide emotional support when needed?  Help you to find time for your own needs?  If the general answer to these questions is yes, then maybe you need to consider where he is coming from with his comments about food.  Admittedly they seem unhelpful and are hard to hear, but if you have unhealthy habits (and only you can answer that) and he is generally a loving and supportive spouse then maybe what comes across a hurtful is genuine concern and perhaps a frustration that you have not been taking ownership of your health.  If you just have a few extra pounds of baby weight and he doesn't help you to find time and balance to take care of yourself then your problems in the relationship are much bigger Han some hurtful remarks.
