I am in such a similar situation. I love my husband and he's an amazing Dad, but I don't fancy him anymore 🫣 He's put on a lot of weight too and makes minimal effort to try and live a healthier lifestyle and I just find it so unattractive and I worry about his health in future though. If I bring up healthy eating, he just gets all defensive and says that he's not that bad with food and we have the same discussion and nothing changes. Honestly don't know what else to do or say. I've never told him exactly how I feel now coz I can't bear upsetting him or being harsh... your post really struck a chord with me though, it's been a hard thing to admit to myself 😔
My boyfriend used to over eat too but we don’t buy crap anymore. No chips or cookies in the house at all. Make sure there is chicken marinated and ready to cook etc. air fryer helps make quick meals. My bf had a health scare and he lost weight and is a lot healthier now
food additives if you're eating like crap can definitely mess up your hormones since we eat a lot of chemicals without knowing that are endocrine disrupting chemicals so it very well could be a hormonal imbalance. if you decide to bring it up with your husband, i'd suggest doing it from a healthcare perspective. tell him you're worried about his health and would prefer if he could mostly eat either what you cook or if there's whole food snacks he could eventually shift to. if he doesn't change and wants to continue eating processed food then he should at least change his portion size. maybe bag them up into a few portions so he isn't getting the whole package worth of chemicals.
