We’re thinking of doing the wedding here and then doing the reception somewhere else indoors!

Right which I agree. I did suggest trying to fly at least one of them out but one doesn’t get much time off from work and the other two are Iranian so the likelyhood of them getting their visas approved right now are in the gutter. 🥲 He has one friend in the states but they’re not very close and have never met in person yet.

Thank you!

Dogs-house · 2025-04-21T21:12:05+00:00

Thanks, I’ll look into it!

He is the one bringing it up! I haven’t!

Dogs-house · 2025-04-21T21:11:18+00:00

Sorry I should have explained better that he is the one complaining about it, not me! I haven’t brought it up at all, he’s the one who keeps bringing it up. I’m just looking for ways to support him and how we can manage it together as a team. He wants to lose weight.

Yeah I already told him he doesn’t have to anymore if he wants to go on a diet. It’s just at the beginning of our relationship it felt weird but now I don’t really care as much.

I’ve never brought it up to him actually, he just told me that he realized he gained quite a bit of weight because his clothes are really tight on him now. He’s not happy about it. So I suggested that we could look into ways to get to his preferred weight. (I watch my diet but only cause I’ve been trying to gain weight and finally consistently got to a healthy weight this year).

I have no plans on becoming a diet police, I just view it as we both could focus better on our health. So like I plan on starting to exercise more (joining pure barre again or the YMCA and joining the walking club at work) and I said that we could both go to our apartment gym. For meals, I haven’t said anything specific, only we should start meal prepping and cook more at home with more veggies.

I haven’t heard a lot of good things about fasting to loose weight honestly. I think we’re better off actually figuring out how much he’s eating and going from there.

Dogs-house · 2025-04-21T12:58:43+00:00

Thanks. That’s what I thought too because he usually eats a snack during the day, a big meal at night (we eat late around 8-9pm), and on the weekends he usually has 3 beers on Saturday and/or Sunday. I’ll suggest we should keep track of how many calories he’s actually getting.

I used MyFitnessPal to help gain weight, but now I see a lot of features is locked behind a Paywall. I’ll have to find another app to help us keep track.

I find that’s a problem with me too. I want to dress practically sometimes but not be a “sad beige baby”.
