I lost 50 kg, but my partner didn't and won't.

Well done on the weight loss.

But getting rid of the missus wont be as easy because you imported her to Australia and now she will have access to the Western legal system.

And the best lawyers your money can buy.

Oh...and be careful, in the feminist run nanny state of Oz, a charge of domestic abuse could be founded upon the comments you have already made in this thread.

I AM playing the ball

I'm suggesting that you re-examine your motivation here.

When you were fat, your stock was worthless, now you've lost some weight, you obviously think your value on "the market" has soared

You think you're entitled to a hot wife.

Guess you shouldn't have married her

So you don't believe a man should try to save his marriage? You're strange, and you prevaricate.

Good luck Kris.

I never implied he shouldn't try to save his marriage.

If you can't understand what's being said, you should brush up on reading comprehension

Please, it's about me this thread.

Don't bother to reply to this gentleman...

My thought is to get her back to her usual diet: Thai food

Thais and carbs not a good combination...my wife is restricted to one farang meal a week...

My gf just wants a new wardrobe so I gave her a few thousand Baht.

Face quickly saved for all....the buffet booked and with free flow champers all round.

Bangkok living at its best!

Encouraging to lose weight is the same as nagging.

IF this lady reaches bottom and decides it's time to take action (as did the OP), then that is the time when loving support can come into play and at that time if that time comes it will be a great help with her efforts (but still of course no guarantees).

Before then, get real.

She KNOWS she is carrying excessive weight.

She KNOWS it isn't healthy.

She KNOWS it isn't pretty.

So what does telling her all those things again and again that she already KNOWS do exactly?

There is lots of research on this. Nagging doesn't help.

I think he's pulling our legs.

[Jingthing]

Could be but it's an interesting problem anyway.

Is it just me that thinks krisb is having us on.

The other day we drove past a McDonalds at 60km/hr.

She grabbed the steering wheel and swerved me towards it!

Luckily the roads the were dry.

Large fries please.

Please, it's about me this thread.

Yes it's very remote, she's got no control.

Edit: just seen Patsycat's post. Not just me then.

I believe this to be a TROLL thread.
