Do You Think If A Husband Doesn't Approve Of His Wife's Weight, That He Has The Right To Criticize Her As A Way Of Encouraging Her To Lose Weight?

 Sure, why not? But as in many cases... People should be careful what they wish for. A guy I knew once bugged his wife about losing weight, which she then did. Then he wanted her to get a breast enhancement surgery, which she then did.

Then she found a rich sugar daddy, and decided she did not need her husband any more.

 The husband should not criticism about his wife's weight as i feel it will make this worse and she will eat for confort. He should appreciate his wife for who she is and not for what she looks like .

 A husband should take her as she is and love her, not make remarks about her.

 No-one is perfect, she may be overweight but maybe he is too, or has some other "fault" that she finds unattractive. This sounds like some kind of manipulative ploy by a rather weak man to assert his "superiority" by diminishing his wife's confidence. Challenge it!! You may be pleasantly surprised by how fast this kind of bully backs off.

 Has nagging a husband ever made the husband more amicable to his wife?? In turn why would criticizing something so personal about your partner get you anything positive. He might suggest they both start a healthier lifestyle together and start walking and eating better.. But To outright say.. Your to fat. Is just asking for it...

 People need to make changes for their own benefit. A nagging spouse just hurts the person they love when they nag and criticize their partner.

 Definitely not. The husband should accept his wife for who she is. If she decides she needs to lose weight, then he should do whatever he can to encourage her and to help her take it off (i.e., offer moral encouragement, suggest and make time for walking and other exercise, help find better ways of eating healthy, being her conscience if necessary, and even being firm with her if she has asked him to do that), but he should not criticize her for her weight.

 Nobody has any right to criticize anyone for weight, smoking, alcohol use etc... That being said, if you're concerned and want to encourage a healthier lifestyle then get involved in activities that you can both benefit from. If my Fiancee thought I needed to lose weight, certainly criticizing me wouldn't make me WANT to lose weight. Bringing up the subject in a non-accusing manner will make her listen to you more than saying "hey, You're getting too fat" Any man who thinks he can treat his wife like that cant possibly love her, and shes much better off without him. Maybe when a wife prefers a cookie over her husband is because she gets more pleasure from the cookie.

 Tigg is 1,000% right!!! There is no need to do this in any manner and if they do then there is something seriously wrong with the husband!!!! It is not just on the outside that counts, the inside counts too!!! And if he has to do this he is the wrong!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 No one person on this planet has the right to criticize another person no matter who, about their weight! That would be like taking a leg off a dog just because it's injured. I'm appalled at this idea.
