He probably worried about your health at 110 pds.

Just tell him it is likely you will naturally gain weight with age — which is definitely true.

Precisely

Losing or keeping weight is a personal choice. Its sweet of him to say he likes you as you are but its not his choice to make.

That being said, if its not a health issue, just a personal preference then you can choose to indulge him.

This!

Bigger the waistband the deeper the quicksand. Or so I have heard.

Personally I'd keep it. My man likes me a little bit curvier than my ideal and I am happy to loosen the reigns on my diet a bit to appease him.
I'm also probably able to have this perspective because I'm bisexual and when it comes to women I completely agree with most men, where I prefer the curves over the "stick figures". So even though I personally love feeling very skinny, I know there's nothing more feminine than a bit of jiggle and softness, so I'm able to see things from his perspective.

If you want to lose then lose, but with the confidence and comfort of knowing you look good where you are? And if and when you lose, throw him a bone by dressing to accentuate curves

I currently weigh about ten pounds more than the weight I consider ideal. It's not an obssssion but it's a "nice to have" thing for me. I'd like to get back to that weight. I might get back to it. I'm not going to beat myself up if I don't. My current boyfriend met me when I was at my thinnest- 18 years ago. He likes me as I am now. So that's good.

What's harder for me - he would like me to keep my hair very long. I've put off cutting it, but I really want to chop about 6" off. He's into the prairie woman look. I am not. And as it gets hotter, I do not want all that hair on my neck. Ick. So I get where you are coming from- what compromises do we make with our appearances because our partners like them? Where is the line between that and a Kanye/Bianca relationship??

Your body your choice. For sure.

My DH is like this too. But for me 10lbs probably makes much less of a difference as I'm 5'8", so I basically acquiesced a bit. You have to do what's best for you. Also, I'm older, so a bit more weight is better for my face.

I do and I’ve always been around 110lbs. Keeping the 10lbs on would mean very little exercise and consuming more calories than I need.

She's 5'1". 10 pounds is a significant change at that size. I'm 5' tall myself and a 10 pound gain means I need an entire new wardrobe. It's several pant sizes when you're short.

Right. 10lbs isn’t much to a taller woman but it is when you’re short. I don’t like the way my clothes fit and I feel chunky.

Don't try to lose weight, just eat healthy and work out.
