If he resolved to lose weight would that help? I don’t see any other way it could work than both of you participated.
But what if one spouse in is fit and the other is not? Then how does one approach the subject.
Some here say, just don’t, just tell them they are beautiful and love them unconditionally.
Sadly, I don’t see that as a solution, but that’s just me.

You don't see any other way it could work? I find that hard to believe....we can help the OP more than that. What if we change the word "fat" to "income."
There will always be discrepancies within a marriage.
And again the question....how much weight does one need to lose to make another happy....or satisfied.
Obviously the "reverse psychology" isn't working. So maybe we have to think differently. Yes there needs to be some positive motivation here & communication or it will become a nasty bone of contention.
