Spouse Trying to Sabotage Weight Loss

beg your wife to leave you.... please.0

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 ?
Convert to Islam, make her wear the full body burqa, and have her walk three steps behind you.
Or get over yourself. She is more likely to leave you because of your attitude than her weight loss.
:noway:
I think you're being REALLY unsupportive of the OP
He's clearly trying to save his marriage.
What's more important? That his wife looks good or that they stay happily married?
Oh, well, let me clarify so as not to appear unsupportive.
She should dump him and find herself a real man. Or he should wear the burqa. Or he can stop being a sarcastic douchecanoe (to steal another users terminology). Because I am assuming that he is, in fact, kidding.
Wait, that didn't help...0 -

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.0 -
I love how everybody is getting on the OP's case when really he's just trying to save his marraige.
His wife is loosing wait, becoming attractive, and, I dare say it, maybe even a little self obsessed and shallow??
They were clearly happier before when she was heavier.
You know the famous quote, "Fat wife, happy life?" Wait...0 -
I wonder how many people actually noticed this was in the Chit-Chat, Fun, and Games section..lol.0

agree 100 %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.
Psh. Marriage isn't a competition for LOSERS.0 -
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 dunno. It's generally easier to convince someone that they aren't doing well enough, rather than they're doing too well, if you know what I mean. But I will own that if she's already getting grief from other friends and family about her weight loss it might indeed be best to play off of that foundation. I suppose it comes down to particulars to which we are not privy.
And honestly I wouldn't ignore the gaslighting option.0 -

Admit that you are the jealous type.
Go see a therapist.0 -

So, the guy can't figure out how to navigate the sections of the forums. He's distraught that his wife may be getting hot.0 -
How twisted... is this a joke?
Be glad you have a hot wife!0 -
forget about worrying about how to keep her fat. support her in all the weight she wants to lose. then 'accidentally' trip while carrying a pot of boiling water, spilling it on her and causing enough scarring to make her too ugly for other men to look at. then tell her repeatedly how great her body looks, she'll stay with you forever.0

No, this is terrible advice. You are suggesting that he assault his wife in a most horrific fashion. That's unconscionable!0 -

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

not like some guy wouldn't have said hello to her while he was with her and he wouldn't have flown off into a jealous rage anyway. this way it'll only happen once0 -

This is disturbing.
OP doesn't want to hurt his wife, he just wants to make sure she stays with him. I imagine he wants to look at her from time to time, as well.0 -
I would suggest you stop trying to sabotage her weight loss and grow up! If you are that insecure in your relationship you need to have a talk with her and explain your feelings. She will most likely understand your feelings and everything will be good. If you do sabotage her and she finds out it may end up being more trouble than just other men noticing her. As for all you other woman who suggested he add things to sabotage her What are you thinking!!! We are on here to loss weight not try to hurt each other!!!!0

Er... He said he isn't the jealous type. HE WRITE POETRY.
YOU DON'T KNOW HIM LIKE I DO.0 -
Take a fine tip ink pen.
Alter all the calorie counts on all packages by five calories.
If she is eating the 5 to 6 meals a day like she should be? this will add up to 25 to 30 calories a day.
Now this will take some time, but slow and steady wins the race. Good luck on your journey of sabotage.:flowerforyou:0 -

Good question. "mmm toasty" like Quizno's or "mmm finger lickin' good" like KFC?0 -

Slow down angledirt. It goes way too far but this is brainstorming. The root of the idea is disfigurement and pain. Obviously I don't want to cause my wife any pain, I love her a lot and she's the mother of my children and, beyond that, supports us by going to work each day. But maybe there's something I can do that won't hurt but would make her less attractive like mixing in some sort of hair removal stuff with her shampoo so she starts balding? This wouldn't hurt and I wouldn't have to be dishonest about her food or try to trick her. I think there's something to that.0 -

"mmm" means that his wife tastes like Honey Nut Cheerios. Don't you watch the NBA?0 -

. Nevermind. You're not worth it. ...0 -
I would put conflicting reports about what food do and do not help with weight loss, that way she won't know what to eat and will quickly become discouraged and confused.0

I'm with you on this. He should find some other way to scar her for life. Maybe expose her to some pox-like disease and help her by popping the lesions so that they scar. It's so less painful and traumatic. People just hav eno imaginations these days.0
