I am now 250 at 5'10, which is a gain of 25 pounds over the last 10 years or so.

Just a sidenote....I ran 3 triathlons 2 years ago at 230 or so. I hit the gym quite a bit, and play basketball weekly. I am not a really flabby guy, but I have a pretty good spare tire to elimate. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

At your size, 25lbs isnt going to be noticable enough that she stops sleeping with you because she thinks you are fat, or is scared you are going to die. There is something else going on here imo. I think its unreasonable to hold out because you gained 25 lbs. IMO, this is bullshit, if you did the same thing to her, and said, hey listen, fatty, Im not having sex with you until you drop 15lbs, the shitstorm she would rain down upon you would be crazy....

I dunno, I gained about 20 pounds and my sex life decreased noticeably. I'm pretty sure it would pick back up if I lost the weight.

While I do agree with your point, there are other factors involved than just the weight. I agree she would probably go nuts if approached in the same way, but she is the love of my life, and after 13 years of marriage I am willing to give her a bit of room. As I said before, if things don't change drastically by years end I will make sure a therapist is contacted.

Thanks for your comments.

You are a more patient man than I. I do not think that I could respond as well as you did. Good luck though, and I hope everything turns out alright.
