Take her in your arms and tell her she has always been the most beautiful woman in your life and you are so proud of her for all she's done to improve her health...not her looks. Maybe even buy her a sexy nightie. Not skimpy, but sexy and have it laid out on the bed with candle light and soft music. It will make her feel sexy and that's half the battle!! :) Good luck and oh, by the way...it's awesome you love your wife so much!! :) Keep letting her know that :)

It's a well-known problem after losing weight, it's called "residual self-image".
In time it should pass, she'll gain confidence & start 2 believe it herself.
Build her up with lots of flattery & compliments.
Buy her flowers & write a short message on the lil card.
Good Luck, U'll get thru eventually it may take time.
Tell Her A BIG WELL DONE FROM ME.
Isn't great 2 B an Ex-BBW?

We work different shifts. I leave her little notes that say how special she is in my life, I buy her flowers unexpectedly, I buy her a pair of earrings once in a while for no reason. I tell her how beautiful she is to me and I do it only randomly. Do it too much and it means nothing, but making it random is the key. She and I have been together many years and it feels like the first year.

Actions speak louder then words. To some, buying flowers means you may be trying to cover something up. The last thing you want to do for someone trying to loose weight, is to take them out to EAT. Praising her each time she talks of how much weight she's lost (loosing) can help. If it's the gym she likes, go with her. you can lift weights, swim, sauna,and it may feel satisfying to the both of you. Go jogging together, it really doesen't matter what ya do, as long as it's together. doing things together will end up bringing her spirits up as well as your own.
Hope i helped a little.

Plan a romantic evening. Tell her to dress up, you dress nicely, and take her to a romantic restaurant. Buy her some nice earrings or a necklace and put the jewelry on her. Do all the gentlemanly things like opening her door, taking her shawl or jacket, holding out her chair, etc.
Let her, and the world see, how proud you are to have her on your arm. Maybe that would convince her.
She's a very lucky woman.

really pay attention to her. if your out, try not to look at other women - look her in the eye and tell her that she is so beautiful to you. also, you could let her overhear you telling someone that you think she has done a good job with her weight loss and she looks so hot now. use your imagination. you have been married awhile, you should know how she is by now.

Take her out to dinner somewhere you'll know she'll be comfortable. And let her know that you think she's beautiful by saying so. Also, let her know you think she's beautiful no matter what she looks like. It will both do you good to express it. :)

Buy her flowers (preferably roses) and on the card write:
I love you no matter what you weigh, you can stopping working out. Cause I'll always love you for who's on the inside.

You might try buying her a sexy out fit that fits her size now and taking her out for the evening so she has some where to wear it.
