My husband used to be normal weight but for the last 6 months he just began to gain weight! At first I just told him to be careful and eat healthy. But the problem isn’t that he eat unhealthy all the time, it’s more that he over eat.
It’s really crazy! even his own family notice it now.
he eats like someone who hasn’t got food for months!
I don’t now what to do anymore! I thought that because of ramadan he will eat less than normal but its even worse now.
He thinks I washed his clothes in a wrong temperature and that’s why he can’t fit his clothes anymore! He was a size small before and now he XL!!
Is he keeps eating this way I am afraid he will get some health issue if he doesn’t stop!
It’s maybe superficial of me but I really don’t want to be married to a fat person for the rest of my life no matter how good he is or not otherwise since no matter what you guys says it does affect our marriage life!
Beside I am not asking him to be thin I am just asking him take care of his body like I do!
I even told him he can come to the gym with me but he won’t!
I do understand he doesn’t want to run in the morning with me before we go to work but at least he can come and swim with me or go to the gym with me.
I need some advice from u guys
Re: overweight husband
err.. pal you sure you aren’t trolling? 6 months of eating and man goes from small to XL? 
Re: overweight husband
stop giving him food.
overweight husband
I wished I could upload a picture so u could see its true!!!!
And it doesn't help if I don't give him food since he will just make it himself or eat take away. He didn't use to be like that before he didn't eat that much before! Plus it doesn't matte if he doesn't like the food or not he just eat until there isn't anything left plus he drinks a lot of coke and stuff to!
Re: overweight husband
Maybe he is exerting himself more than usual. Feed him less. Make him go to the gym.
Re: overweight husband

you could totally do this! would you like me to walk you through the process of uploading pics?
Re: overweight husband
Maybe he is stressed.Some people overeat when they are stressed.Take him to a doctor.
Maybe he is stressed out because of weight gain
Re: overweight husband
Maybe he is stressed out because of weight gain
and gaining more weight ?
He could have some medical prob too.Going from a S to XL within 6 months isn't just careless overeating.
Re: overweight husband
That seems like a medical problem for sure!
Re: overweight husband
Leave him alone. And let him eat.
Re: overweight husband
As others have said, might be stress. Or increase in appetite might be a symptom of something else. He should see a doctor.

Haven't thought about that. maybe you guys are right. I will book an appointment for him and take him to the doctors.
Whatever your doing is fine. He also has to have enough will power to lose weight or make lifestyle changes. You cant carry his load for him (no pun intended). As others have said its maybe more deeper underlying issues.
Re: overweight husband
So what does he eat on a normal say

Eating more because of what? Did he go through something recently? Has he been always like that or it started just 6 months prior?

What do u mean that a size small is small is to small for a man? Have you ever been to the man section in a clothing store??? I bet you will find size small for men too
Hmm as far as I know my sister isn't dating any gora fitness geek. I don't know what my sister has to do with this issue...

It's just for the past 6 months. He used to be almost fit before. He had a bit of a stomach but not that much that you would notice much.
He uses to go to the gym and eat as normal people do.
Re: overweight husband
Its stress, laziness or a medical problem.
You might want to see a doc first...also make sure the doc talks to him about his weight and how important it is to control it.
