when dh and i met 4 years ago i weighed 9 stone (5"7) and he weighed 11 1/2 (5"11), now i weigh just under 10 stone and he weighs just over 14, i have had 2 children since then!
he does exercise quite a lot but i think he eats crap when i am not around and he also drinks cider every night.
it's not particularly about appearances, more to do with the fact that i ahve arthritis in both of my hips and it's quite hard for us to have sex anyway and i feel his weight plays a reasonable part in this.
also dh's dad is pretty overweight (around his stomach, in exactly the same place as dh) and in quite poor health with heart probs etc and i don't want dh to have these problems, he is 14 years older than me anyway and on the oldish side as a father and i want him to be around and healthy for as long as poss.
we have talked about it and i think dh thinks i am nagging him (i probably am!).
i see it as dh doesn't care enough about me and my decrepid body to do something as simple as eat less
