>>20856993>>20856991Yeah, it's gonna be tough working with them.
Best approach is probably gonna be finding a middle ground that's not too preachy, something honest, raw.
Understanding how you both feel about your weight, maybe opening up with how you've felt vulnerable too and things you've enjoyed or got out of it. Not even pushing them but just sending them a thing like that, saying what you got from it, you're down to talk or there for them if whatever but not pushy.
If you talk about things you love since losing weight?Make the mundane massive.
They sleep poorly? Laying on their front, daaaamn, imagine being able to sleep on your back easily, but still be open about things like being self conscious. Everyone has their own reasons for eventually wanting to lose weight. If he doesn't change or he send you some weird clickhole schizo shit then shrug it off.
Intellectual honesty will get you much farther than virtue signalling.
I never had anyone push me to lose weight who was close to me.
I just gained weight after an accident and forced myself to fast it off; but I'd been fasting since I was a teen before joining the army. I was however self conscious when I was big, hated dense brickies in vans jeering who'd not been through what I had. So I could relate to that shame and how it wasn't a good motivator.
>>20856994step 4 is good for everyone even if you're not losing weight
understanding that water weight fluctuates and that measuring at a certain time of the day will differ and it's all about long time trends helps people bust out of the plateau funk where they crumble at no progress
