[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote] Lastly; it is affecting our sex life. I know I need to adjust how I think, but I’m turned off by the big belly. When he eats food falls on it and sits there. When he’s hugging me his stomach is in the way.[/quote]

I don't think that is petty. I have the same problem with my DH. HUGE belly. I don't need to adjust how I think. He needs to adjust how he eats! Why is it petty to want to be attracted to your husband?[/quote]

DH from above:  you should tell him this.  If it’s true he needs to know, and it’s the best motivation for him.  This was clearly true for my DW when I was significantly overweight, but I didn’t clue in and literally not a single person told me to get my act together, which I needed because it’s easy to lose track of due to work pressure and the grind of the day-to-day.  I didn’t get it until things got way better after I was in shape. And they got WAY better after I was in shape.  Nobody tells men this.  I mean be positive — not “you’re an unattractive fat ass” but “I think you’d be sexier with a little bit more muscle” and then positively reinforce progress.  Not rocket science.[/quote]
