Try to get her eating protein powders some times. I'd also suggest doing cardio whenever possible, Maybe suggest the 2 of you go hiking or walking on the weekend. Throw out some of the junkfood at home...

I tried the Protien powders and she dosent like them. She works on weekends and She eats at work most of the time. She is a Bartender and is on her feet moving around all the time and also goes all day alot of the time without eating and she still is putting on the big butt. Whats up with that?

In thirties metabolism starts too slow down, if you don't adjust diet and workout, well, as you know, can't fight mother nature, yet she will let you work with her.

That's what's up most likely if she is normal and healthy, unless some medical thing has come up.

Metabolism slows down because the body is completely done with growth phase, it is no longer growing anything thus it does not need extra calories etc. Now body will only process what it needs to maintain, ie, homeostatis, and then it has to deal with the rest of food it doesn't need, which most of time turns into additional weight.

This is pretty normal and most all folks go through it, unless you have a super duper metabolism, which some folks have, again most don't.

Easier to make changes now in early stages then much later when it is emotional a bigger challenge. Easier to take off ten than 30.

good luck

Like the friend idea, that's smart.

She just turned 27 about 2 months ago!

Terminator......Ummm.......what is your real name, are you my husband.....

Seriously, its a now win situation I think.....you could wait for her to make some sort of comment and then say....well, I love you , but yes I have noticed your butt has gotten a little bigger. But really, I think no matter what you say her feelings are going to be hurt. But if it really bothers you, then you should say something. Just make sure she understands that your feelings for her are no diffrent then they were before. Good Luck with what ever approch you pick....

Here's how I handle it. I turn it around on myself. I would say man I'm getting fat I think I need to get back on a diet. Usually she will say somthing like I could use a diet to. Then be nice and say then we'll diet together. She probably knows she's gained weight.

I like this approach the best. Remember, women are very sensitive. Personally, If I gain weight, it is usually from an outside factor in my life: stress, hormones, relationships, depression, etc. And in this case I am already upset that I let an outside factor effect me like this. In the best interest of your mate, approach this matter in the least abrasive manner as possible....if at all.

I mean, it has only been two months. Give her some time to deal with it on her own or suggest working out together so you can "spend more time together" Try to think about this from a woman's point of view.
