I have been busting my butt working out and eating better for more than a year and have lost 40lbs and I think she has gained the 40 that I lost, at least it feels that way.
It stinks to not be in the same place on this issue. I want recapture a little youth and feel healthier, more athletic and skinny and I would prefer that she try to do the same but I just don't see it happening.
I'll bet my husband feels the same way about me. I joined weight watchers to lose 30 pounds and I've been trying to exercise more. But, I have a 2 year old and a 4 year old, I work full time, and I'm tired. He has a flexible (freelance) work schedule and he is a natural at mindful eating and fitness. He looks great! I really miss feeling even slightly fit.
He should be doing much more childcare and housework, so you have time and energy to exercise.

If he has a problem with that, suggest it'll be easier for him to lose weight than pay you alimony and child support after you divorce his fat ass
Life is too short to have a fat husband.
