[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You are fat because you eat too much and don't use up the calories.

Sure some people have a faster metabolism which causes them to consume those calories more easily but for those who don't have that sort of metabolism the answer is to eat less and exercise more.

Most people consume way more calories than they think they do. Eating out is one of the ways people end up not only gorging on those oversized portions but they are also laden with fat and calories. You don't need to eat salads - you eat everything but in moderation.

It really works and I am living proof of this.[/quote]

eh, I'm not going to kill myself trying to "maintain" (starve) myself into a weight that is just not in the cards for me.  For the most part, I avoid highly processed foods and I exercise pretty regularly.  My results *should* be better but they aren't.  Oh well, 'tis life. [/quote]

This is a good attitude as long as your partner is on board. My wife could stand to lose a few lbs. She worries more about how she looks than I do. I think she is sexy but she doesn't like to be naked with the lights on or wear lingerie. If she got really heavy though maybe I wouldn't be attracted to her, I don't know. But I do know I would still love her.

OP a lot of folks are bashing your DH but obviously we only have your side. Is this a topic that comes up when you are not on vacation, or did he pick vacation to begin harping on your eating?  If it's the latter it is certainly a dick move,  if it's the former then it's obviously a big problem in the marriage. Regardless of how poorly he is expressing them, his feelings about wanting to have you more physically attractive to him are valid. You two need to be in counseling together to figure out how better to communicate your wants, needs, and expectations of each other. The answer is not for him to shut up about it so your feelings don't get hurt[/quote]
