Question to you folks in all seriousness, I am rather health concious and work out regularly. My wife of 2 years was rather "rubenesque" or some would say "voluptuious" when we met. Not fat but "healthy", Big boobs seem to run in that family : ) When she became pregnant she always said, "Dont worry after I have the baby I will get back in shape , I wont balloon out like so many women do." Well...it didnt work out that way, she is bigger now and weighs more now than she did 2 months after our baby was born. I do not criticize her about it, I dont have to anyway, she knows how I feel about excess poundage and being "in shape". Im not talking about the hollywood stereo type, just height weight proportionate. Shes 5'11 and hitting around 230.My mom said not to say anything about it and to lead by example. I work out regularly 3 or 4 times a week and do some martial arts etc..., She went to the gym with me for about 2 weeks and started finding reasons not to go. I want her to lose weight but I dont want to hurt her self esteem or feelings by bringing it up. Some people Live to Eat , I Eat to Live. Its becoming a bit of a problem for me personally but I dont know what to do about it. any suggestions?
