Delicate situation.......

I am so lucky my wife and I can be honest with each other... Only been married for 2 years, my BMI is 26 due to my oversized leg muscles and hers is 17 due to her hardly eating anything.

She has a very good approach to food, eat until she feels full and only eats when she is hungry. She eats breakfast but usually does not eat lunch. Instead she snacks and has a light evening meal or just eats around 5.30 with me.

She could stand to eat healthier food but due to the low total volume of it she does not put on weight. I work hard at balancing my diet over a week, currently addicted to courgettes!
 
Don't beat about the bush !
The next time you're sitting at the dinner table reach over and fondle her upper arms and say...

" I really love your bingo wings !! "

Works every time. :mmm:
 
the best you can hope for is that one (or preferably all) of her mates start shedding the pounds. Before you know it she'll be on lettuce morning noon and night. I've seen it happen. They don't give a xxxx until other women start getting their act together and then the competitive instinct kicks in.

Imagine that one of your mates who you normally take the cash from starts practicing and pocketing a tenner a week. Same principle (but double, cos they're girlies).
 
Only you know. What or how, you can talk to your wife. With my other half I can be totally honest (and her with me). So I would tell her out right. Same as when she buys anything new. Why lie, If you cant be honest with your other half. Who can you be honest with?
 
Look on the bright side.
If she is larger, that means when you make love to her in the morning, you'll be able to see the first tee out of the bedroom window.
Cup always half full. ;)
 
My wife is a size 8 and thats what she wants to be. She puts alot of hard work into looking good but if she did start putting any weight I would have no problem telling her to sort herself out. Bang Tidy!!
 
I think you should just tell her straight out and then wait for her to respond that she thinks your wurst is too small and you cant play golf. Kidding

Take her clothes shopping and set an example
 
Ont he plus side Smiffy, you said somewhere she has taken up golf and walking to the course (I think). If so then surely this exercise will burn up some calaories anyway and so it could be a case of problem solved without the need to wear a box when you broach the subject.

HID went to the doctors the other week and was told she needed to lose weight. Nothing to do with why she went and so she was pretty hacked off. It started well and she went swimming etc but then fell and fractured her coccyx and so five weeks later has gained weight instead. I'm saying nowt
 
your a brave man posting this, i heard JO say that he was going to print it and blackmail you for a new nissan sunny ;)

Hmmm....never thought of that.... you're cleverer than you look :whistle:


I was thinking more along the lines of getting her a decent lover on the side... maybe someone who pretends to play off 6 but is closer to 14 :mad:
