Spouse Trying to Sabotage Weight Loss

Hello - looking for some help and support. My wife and I have both been losing a lot of weight recently and have been pretty successful counting calories.

I've noticed that she's been getting a lot more "male" attention and it's starting to make me uncomfortable. I'm not the jealous type but does anyone have suggestions for how I can sabotage her weight loss? Like, change the settings on the food scale, or ?

first off, you really need to get some control over your castle there, bub. why are you allowing your wife to walk outside alone in the first place? the house don't get spic and span by itself. she needs to be home. i get that she has to use some of the allowance you give her to go grocery shopping, but if you tell her she has to go in the late morning/early afternoon, she won't get any male attention because all the men will be at work.

secondly, it's "loosing weight" not "losing weight". get your grammer together, chief.

I'm not sure if this whole thread is a joke or not but it's amusing.

For the record it is 'losing' weight as in you lose weight, you don't loose it. Also to double the irony you started the next sentence without a capital G. To add to the irony a final correction, it is spelt 'grammar' not 'grammer'.

I could have made myself look incredibly stupid here if the comment is intentionally ironic, but that would only add to the hilarious-ness.

"Hilarious-ness?" Really?

Why not? I'm still not sure if this whole thing is a joke. But I think it's hilarious.

The man comes here for help and you laugh at him?

Just break up

It is against forum rules to correct people's grammar.

*edges slowly towards the door*
I'm getting out while I still can.
Good luck OP

"Ain't no body got time for that!"

LMFAO and this for the win!

All this debate on ethics and all he really asked was for some practical advice, shame on all of you for not being there for someone in need....except those who said 'add sugar'. That's some real advice.

But I think your best move is to buy some Fiber One bars, replace them with Snickers. While you're eating the real Fiber One's, she's eating candy. Comment how they don't even taste healthy, but you've hear 7-10 a day is recommended by real scientists. Then as you lean out and she plumps up, well, then the shoe is on the other foot, isn't it?

I applaud your efforts to save your marriage.

Really? Dont try to sabatoge her weight loss. For one, if she truly loves you she will not leave you because she lost all this weight. Have trust in your relationship and be proud that you are the lucky guy with this good lookin girl Tell he she looks good and tell her how you feel. I am sure she will understand. But, do not try to sabatoge her weight loss. Her weight loss is leading to a longer and healthier life, more time to spend with you!!

Once again, this is such a chick answer. You are asking for communication. Real men don't do that.

make baby trolls!

get 'er pregnant. that will give you a dual benefit, as you can then extract her HCG and use it to aid your dieting.

best idea lol

Really, I think it all stemmed from allwoing her to have shoes in the first place.

I kinda agree with this. What I have done is get one of those ankle bracelets that stuns them if they try to leave the kitchen during certain hours of the day.

Don't sabotage her food. You need to sabotage her eating.

The way you do that is to belittle her gains. Mock her body shape. Make her feel like she's really not accomplishing enough and you are disgusted with her minimal gains. Tell her she's fat and criticize when she eats anything with a hint of fat in it.

That sounds counter productive, but trust me, she'll rapidly become resentful and will stop eating well out of spite. It will also lower her self esteem and she'll avoid situations where she could get compliments from other men, and finally, it will make her more dependent upon you.

If that fails, there's always gaslighting.

Of course there's always the opposite. Tell her you find her weight loss revolting, and tell her she needs to see a mental health specialist about her eating disorder. Then wihthold sex from her. Tell her you would rather do it yourself, because she is too revolting at her current weight.

I GOT BRONCHITIS

I'll be the one who is actually foolish enough to believe your post is true. Be happy for your wife. My husband, years ago got all weird about "other men" looking at me bla bla bla when I got a fantastic job with nothing but men doing lots of traveling and having to be in close quarters with these men at all hours of the day and night. Sure the attention they gave me was flattering but I was very touched when my husband actually used the voice God gave him and told me he felt threatened. Tell her you feel threatened that all these dudes are paying attention to her. Tell her you love her and your kids and family and don't want to lose her. She might tell you that you need to get your head on straight and trust her, and do it. If she does run off with one of those guys, at least you were on the up and up with her. It will be her bad not yours.

If people would actually just SAY to each other what was bugging them, in a decent non-violent and non-confrontational way, everybody would be better off.

Let me say if my husband had written this post and then followed the advice of slipping me extra calories and fat, it would kill me. I would feel so sad that he wasn't my right hand man and my number one supporter. IF this post is actually true...if you want to lose your wife then by all means do stuff to hurt her and lose her trust. If you want to keep her, then by all means talk to her and tell her how you are feeling and hte insecurities you have.

I'm really hoping that people are joking here. I'm finding the entire thing kind of disturbing.
