What if her idea of exercise is just stepping into the gym? Also ask her if she wants to play some touch football or go for a hike...you get to spend some time together and you get to have fun! well…I think inviting her to exercise with you…I’ve exercised with some of my friends who “exercise everyday”…and believe me what they call exercising I call ADD.

She exercises daily, and most of the time eats well, but she definitely likes to binge on chocolate & ice cream now and then. She looks like a porker, not the way she looked when we first met. Of course now I will get hate messages from all you ladies who think I am being mean & superficial, but please lets be fair about this. I think this is a topic worth a full entry by CC.

I dont know any guys, or girls, or really anyone who find it sexually attractive to watch people eat or know that they are eating high calorie foods. I think a more logical explanation would be that if he made you a meal and put hard work into it, your guy would be a little put out if you didnt enjoy it, or worse, wasted it. And for the other people bashin on this girl, are you dumb? Some people just like to take care of themselves. If you dont take care of yourself, who will? Your mom? dude tom that was one weird a$$ paragraph to read.

Some guys, myself included, get pleasure out of seeing women enjoy food. My girl is not a stick and she's certainly not fat. I don't get pleasure out seeing a girl gain weight. But enjoying food is totally different- it's sexy when a girl takes something into her body and gets pleasure out of it (sound familiar?) It's also enjoyable to see a girl lose her inhibitions and scarf down some rich meal. It's totally natural for a guy to feel that way (although guys are conditioned by the system as well in the respect that they feel they need to find the starving-model-figure attractive.) That's why a lot of guys don't admit it. In any case, their are plenty of healthy ways for a girl to go about pleasing her bf in this fashion, and some of your suggestions are great. Once in a while it's good to throw the fella a bone, though. Putting on the sad puppy face and begging for a sundae after a hearty meal will probably turn the guy on, and if done in moderation, won't have repercussions on your figure.

I am on a 2000 calorie a day diet (more than I need) and this is hard to maintain with my significant other otgrting 600 calorie iced coffees, breakfast, lunch, and going out to dinner.

Honestly, most of you girls look like guys because of the way you keep your bodies. I like my girls to look like women, not boys with padded bras. If you get fat you get fat, that's how your body reacts. React accordingly and don't push it on others. Metabolisms work differently for everyone so it doesn't matter what you say works, cause it probably won't work for anyone else.

PS: I know women of every size with good shapes/figures. Most would rather have a womanly shape than a "girlish figure" anyway. Good luck with the self deprivation.
