After three pregnancies I'm trying to lose weight. I'm really uncomfortable with how I look, so I'm eating better and am going to start to exercise in 4 weeks (that's when my doctor said it will be okay after giving birth) and I'm really concerned with my health. My problem is now my husband isn't as attractive to me. He's always been heavy, but it hasn't ever bothered me before like it does now. He still eats unhealthy and has no plans to exercise or lose weight, even though he admits he has a weight problem. I still love him because he's a great husband and father. But I'm concerned for his health and I don't get turned on by his looks anymore. I don't know what to do. I don't feel like I can make him lose weight, it has to be his own choice. I'm concerned for our relationship. Is it just my own insecurities with my own body causing this? Or is it that I could have changed my tastes for what I want in a mate? Any advice?
