Gah, that middle aged spread is no fun to fight. I used to be one of those annoying guys that could eat like a horse and, seemed to have a hollow leg and, never gain an ounce. I hit about 35 and I swear that changed over night.
At 40 I was 6-4 290, enough of that, it was literally killing me. I got busy and now, I'm down to 180-190 and maintaining it, so that's good for me - a lot of diet watching and making sure I get enough exercise but I need to do it. I've got enough other things going on with my health that I don't need weight issues too.
As far as anyone else, I think it's a personal choice and, yes I do encourage any partner I have to be healthy, but if they are eating right (except a few guilty treats now and then) and reasonably active, wherever their weight wants to be is fine with me.
