I would say that 95% of everyone who loses a lot of weight gains it back within several months, so his best bet is just to wait it out, IMO.

There is no reasonable way to tell your wife that you are not happy with her physically. If he even insinuates that he doesn't like the fact that she lost weight, he will see her newfound skinny self with another dude pretty quickly.

Your friend had better get over his insecurity pretty damn quickly.

Probably not the norm but my wife gained like 20 lbs when she was pregnant and was wearing her regular clothes a week or two later. Only thing that was bigger for a while was her boobs.

it’ll buy him a good 6-8 months of visual happiness, at least. Only she will probably feel insecure about the weight gain, and won’t want him to touch her. Can’t win ‘em all.

It's hit or miss. Mine was a horn ball when she was pregnant. I don't have that particular fetish so I kind of did my duty but otherwise was a bit weirded out by it

uhh...what? Yes there is.

If your wife is 5’1” and pushing 2 bills, you sit her down like an adult and tell her that it’s not healthy and that it’s not good for your marriage.

He mentioned getting her pregnant. He says he’s ready for kids, in his 30’s. She is like 5 years younger or so.

I’d say at her peak weight she was 170ish. He told me she’s lost 50 pounds in a year doing some nutrition club. Lots of shakes and whatnot. Height, I’ll guess is 5’6

that's advice for the man, the keeping the mouth shut thing doesn't work with women, except when you want them to open it up wide

She’ll gain it back. He’s safe.

I told him to take her out to eat a bunch. It’ll cost him, but it will keep her from eating as healthy and he can seem like the nice guy taking his wife out a lot.

Agreed. If she became a workout warrior or a distance runner that would be one thing but those fad diets don't last. She'll eventually gravitate back to her historic norms.

Maybe if you’re addicted to BBW porn and you’re about to open your mouth and say some dumb shite. If you have something substantive then you shouldn’t keep your mouth shut because of some idea like “happy wife, happy life.” That’s a good way to end up in an unhappy marriage.

Odds are she didn't lose it for him.

Pecker, I'm glad you're back bestowing truths in these sad, hopeless men.
