[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Dan Savage once said that part of being a good partner is staying within 10% of the weight you were when you met. I've always made that a goal for myself.[/quote] And what about your partner?[/quote] That's the point. If your partner isn't staying within 10% (with good reason), then they're not being a good partner. Kind of on par with not sharing chores equally, contributing to the household, listening and being kind.[/quote] This is crazy. Going from 130 to 145 over the course of a marriage is not “bad partner”-level behavior. Obviously there is a line towards serious obesity where it’s a health concern but 10% if you are starting young and thin is not reasonable. You could easily still be under 25 bmi and have gained 10% from your starting weight - is that being a bad partner?[/quote]
