Spouse Trying to Sabotage Weight Loss

That is really, really horrible of you, honestly. I can't believe it. Why can't you celebrate her success, encourage her to keep it up, and start working on your marriage so that she wouldn't be tempted by any of those other guys? That's a much, much healthier approach than sabotaging. Marriage is a partnership, not a competition.

You aren't the jealous type, then why do you want to sabotage her diet. Don't you want what's best for her?

My husband has been told by men that his wife is "mmm" and he looks at them at says, "I know."

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 ?

I believe it was, and you are correct. It did just make me giggle a little more.

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.

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.
