We have been together for almost a year and I have gained twenty-five pounds. Every night when I get home he has a full course dinner on the table complete with desserts. He has told me I am getting fat and I've tried to cut down on my food intake. But every time I refuse a second helping he gets offended and hurt because I don't like his cooking. This isn't the case. I love him and his food, but he doesn't like my getting fat. Can you solve this for me? SIGN ME; GAINING FAST
