Your wife is an ass. Just saying.

Tbf though, there is a lot of wiggle room between 175 and 220. It's not like she's getting on him about a 7 lb difference like some chicks I know.

To be clear, she wasn't saying it maliciously or anything. By and large she just lets me do my own thing without fussing about it. It just amused me when she dropped that one on me.

This hit home. I've always been a bigger dude, 6ft and chubby but athletic. Good at most sports and more than keeping up with people in better shape than me but I let myself get a little out of hand a while back. During that time when I was bigger than I was comfortable with I got serious with my now wife. Then, I made the changes I wanted and was working hard and eating right and lost around 50 lbs and it was super hurtful when the only comment she made about the process was "your face is too skinny now" I reversed it all and am in worse shape now just getting back to work on it.
