Uncomfortable cuz he is losing too much weight ?
29% Normal
6 Comments

So i have this person i really love who is losing waaay to much weight and his excuse is that this is happening to him every since he knew me( he lost 9 kg since then ) which is really making me uncomfortable around him and do not want to be seen around him till i lose weight. It feels like i have to lose weight too just so i look less disgusting when i stand next to him . People always tell me im beautiul and there is no excuse i should lose weight but the fact that he is and im not and i dont know what to do just makes me mad at myself
Is this normal ?
What should i do ?
Do you think it's normal?

I think you are kind of insecure and should really stop feeling this way because if you really loved him you would be happy for him, especially if he is over weight. It shouldn't bother you that he is losing weight and not you in my opinion. Plus a lot of guys lose weight easier than women do.

If you think you need to lose weight than do it for yourself not because you are jealous of your boyfriend or care way too much of what others think of you.

It's pretty hard to say without knowing if or how fat you both are. You make no mention.

Not over weight but he is becoming really under weight . I dont know how to make him stop. Maybe i just want to be balanced but is it normal ?

Well your priorities seem a little misplaced. If he is losing too much too rapidly that should be your concern, not how it makes you look or that you should be part of this unhealthy weight loss phenomenon too.

Be an anchor. Tell him you are happy with yourself the way you are. Tell him you are concerned about his weight loss. Tell him to go see his family doctor. Then tell him that whatever he decides, it is his problem not yours, and to leave you out of it.

I dont think you should lose weight, you should love yourself the way you are. my fiancee is like a model, and i'm like 10 pounds overweight, but i dont feel that way, i dont care what people think, and if he complains one day, so be it he's the loser! i'll just let him go if he cant accept me theway i am.

If you feel uncomfortable being seen with him until you, yourself lose weight, then I suspect that you are overweight. Remember that MOST people in the industrialized world ARE overweight, so being "average" means being overweight.

Consider his weight loss as motivation to pursue yours. Go on a *low-carbohydrate* diet. This will be good for you.
