  1. You clearly aren't seeing the ways his "being fat" is effecting us. True most of it comes back to his weight, but my concerns are not just his weight, but the far reaching effects that is has. Please don't try to imply that I would divorce someone just because of a number on a scale. I am interested in more intelligent advice. Don't waste my time.
  2. When we were dating in college my husband was already clearly overweight. When I would bring it up he would talk about how he was a football player and that when he stopped playing he wouldn't have to maintain his high weight anymore. I do blame myself for being so easily fooled by his excuses. Fast forward 3 years, he has consistently gained more and more weight. I have tried EVERYTHING to help him succeed. I've tried: positive encouragement drill sergeant approach educating being an example making him accountable by the end of the day food charting writing him letters telling him my feelings seeing a doctor (no underlying medical problem) meeting with our bishop gym membership But here is the advice I need: After I have done Everything I can think of nothing is changing. He is destroying himself and I just have to watch. He is doing nothing to reach the potential he has. After looking at the pattern beginning with his grandfather I am terrified of the example he is setting for our son. At his families rate, our son would be 400 pounds by college. He refused to get out and find a job literally until the day I gave birth to our son. I feel is is neglecting his family. I am no longer attracted to him intimately. It is a fact that I take care of every responsibility in our marriage and household. I feel like all he is contributing to our relationship is the fact that he is my best friend, but nothing more. Do I stay with him and miss out on a fulfilling marriage, or do I move on?
