Today, my fitness trainer husband told me that if I could not make the commitment to stay thin, he could not make the commitment to stay with me. FML

Awwwww. I struggle with weight issues too, so I feel for you, but that is not cool of your husband. Tons of people are gonna be on here telling you to " divorce his ass" but don't.

Jokes aside, my advice would be this: Talk to your doctor. See if you are at an acceptable weight, or whether your health is/is going to suffer for your weight. If you are healthy, divorce. Your husband is just a shallow asshole. If you are not or are borderline, try to lose the weight. He has your health in mind when he says those things.

Well, did he say "get skinny" or just "don't turn into a fat ass"? I could understand his POV if you used to be like 150lbs when you got married and then put on another 50 over the years without concern for your own health. I wish we had more information for this one...

Oh screw him for wanting you to be healthy. Can't believe he would ask for you to eat right and exorcize.

I think he kind of has a point to push you, maybe he's just saying that to encourage you. But if he's seriously do it then FYL

I'm not trying to be rude, but he's a jack ass.

For those of you saying "he doesn't want a disgusting, fat pig", just because OP might be gaining weight doesn't mean she is overweight or disgusting. Maybe he does want that super thin girl she used to be. If he truly loved her, then he wouldn't threaten to leave her if she doesn't slim down. That being said, we also don't know the circumstances. Maybe OP had a baby and she has trouble losing the weight. Still, I can also understand why he would want to to stay thin, which is better in his mind. He thinks it's best for both of you. But, maybe you are happy with yourself even if you have gained weight, which is good. We should consider maybe OP has a curvier body, bigger breasts or hips that she likes. After all, it is her body, she should have an opinion on it. If you think you should lose weight, do it for you mainly, and make him happy a long the way. But, if he can leave you in a snap without the weight shed, I guess you can start filing divorce papers. And for those who will say I'm crazy for suggesting divorce, that's what he's doing.

I can see where he's coming from... but don't divorce him, think of it as a way of staying fit just as he is staying fit for you. because let's all be real. most of us wouldn't want to be with a fat slob. not saying you are btw

You can drop 150 pounds immediately by dumping his superficial ass.

Seriously, the people saying, "oh I bet you got fat after attaching that good ol' ball n chain." Need to shut the **** up. As you get older your body changes. It's not like anyone purposely gains weight after getting married. A marriage based on aesthetics is doomed to fail for this reason. If you fall in love with the person and not the body, this won't happen.

WOW, what a dick. Hope you kicked his ass to the curb

Just going to say that i'ts nice to be attracted to the person you married and being fat isn't attractive. Be glad that he is being honest instead of just leaving you out of the blue once it's too late. Exercise is not that difficult and it is very beneficial for many reasons.
