[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s so funny to me that people say that a moo of young children has let herself go if she gains weight.

If you look at a person and how much effort she puts into various life activities before and after she has kids, chances are she is going to be putting MUCH more effort into her life after she has kids. She is probably working harder than ever before. She hasn’t let herself go. It’s just that most women simply don’t have the capacity to do everything they did before and care for kids on top of that. We are humans, not cyborgs. [/quote]

OMG, this.  And his solution is that she should get even less sleep than she already is, by waking up earlier so she can work out before the kids get up.

First, that's probably not going to help -- for most women, weight loss is about diet.  She's exhausted, most likely, which messes with your appetite-regulating hormones, and it's likely much harder to make healthy meals because she's busy with kids.

And second, it's just so contemptuous.  This is his wife and the mother of his children.  And he's just mad that she's not hot anymore and thinks it's a character flaw rather than the result of, you know, having three kids under 5.  [/quote]
