My husband is getting fat
My husband is getting fat. He used to be slim and in shape, and now, he looks like a butterball. When we were dating, he was 170 pounds. He stepped on the scale the other day and he has gained 50 pounds!
The problem is I feel guilty watching him fatten up and liking it. I feed him well, he likes to snack and his fat belly and mushy chest are a turn on for me. I prefer it much more than the flat stomach he had years ago. He has a slight double chin now that I also think is **.
I hope he still gains in the coming years. I had to buy him size 40 pants (used to be a size 32), and I was so happy to watch him try them on. He complained about the new size, so I walked over to him, patted his bulging tummy, grabbed his love handles and told him how attractive he is to me. It’s not a lie, though, because I really do enjoy his new size and I love his fat belly!
Hopefully he gains another 50 pounds! I wouldn’t mind a chubby hubby! What’s better than eating what you want and getting your wife excited to be with you in the bedroom?
Oh, wow! OK. I’ll have to ask him. You know that from like science or from gaining or losing weight yourself?
I have gained 100 pounds over the years. When I weighed 140, I had a 28 inch waistline. Now at 240, my waist is 42 inches.
That’s a big difference. What happened? How do you feel?
I feel ok, mostly because I started weight lifting and put on 20 pounds of muscle, which addressed the aches and pains I was feeling. Also, I had been doing cardio before lockdown. Didn’t lose weight long term, but I do feel better.
How did you gain that much weight? How fast did you gain it?
I gained the 100 pounds over a decade.
What caused your weight gain? Do you plan on staying 240 pounds?
I have gained in spurts. I was in a car accident, and put on 40 pounds before I could exercise again. Then I got a sedentary job and put on another 40 pounds. The last 20 pounds came in lockdown. If the past is any guide, increasing activity levels will stop the gaining and improve my muscle tone, but won’t lead to weight loss. To lose, I’d need to go on a keto diet for months, but that’s too extreme for me.
