Not once did he make me feel uncomfortable. He'd grab me, pull me around the stomach, look me in the eyes and say, 'This needs love too!'40-year-old Janet is convinced she’s found “The One.” To know that while her weight may fluctuate, his attraction to (and love for) her remains constant produces one of the most monumental relationship exhales. And, isn’t that what partnership is all about? To quote Janet in song, “That’s the way love goes.”
I thought that was the sweetest thing. I've never in my life had love that was so unconditional.
My weight never affected my sex life. Nothing changed, nothing!

Miss Jackson
Janet Jackson. Amid wardrobe malfunctions and family drama, the woman still knows how to pick a man. In a recent issue of Britain’s Grazia magazine, Janet reports that despite her 68-pound weight-gain for a now defunct movie role, her music industry boyfriend, Jermaine Dupri, still worshipped her frame:

Wouldn't that be nice -to be attractive to a man and to feel attractive to a man no matter what my current weight is. Somehow this seems about as possible as world peace.
It's not impossible! My husband is super attracted to me no matter what I weigh. Even when I was at my highest weight -235- he wanted to jump me whenever he caught a glimpse of me naked. I'm convinced that he would want me even if I weighed 400 pounds. With all that I have dealt with over the years in terms of weight and dieting, it has been really wonderful to have a husband who loves me and wants me regardless of weight.
fc--see HS below!
HS--what a wonderful comment (and man). : )
It makes my soul sad and tired.....
My husband doesn't want anything to do with me if I am five pounds "too much," let alone forty pounds too much.
It's nice that some relationships are very different than mine.
Is it the weight that is the problem or how we feel and consequently present ourselves that is the problem.
If you feel fat and frumpy and moan and groan about it constantly its got to be a turn off. You see many large women who look and obviously feel sexy and are far more attractive to men than the skinny weight obsessed girls in this world.
Its mindset. Its presentation.
to respond to Debstar....
I rarely mention anything to do with weight or how I feel about myself to my husband or anyone else for that matter. I don't talk about food, my body, my eating disorder, etc, etc. I dress nicely, I do my hair, makeup, all that kind of stuff, blah blah blah. After all I am "out there in the world" being successful and amazing. ;)
My weight has fluctuated up and down one hundred pounds since I have known my husband. I have been very thin and very fat and it is quite obvious to anyone that I have food issues. However, it is also obvious that when I weigh less, my husband is much more attracted to me than when I weigh more, no matter what I wear or how I "present myself."
At my heaviest I could parade in the sexiest Victoria's Secret ensemble and my husband would run screaming the other way. Of course, I never would dream of parading in anything at my heaviest.
So, I believe it has to do with two things: 1) the confidence I have when I am a stick figure (makes no sense, I know)vs. when I am not or when I think I am not, and 2 his aversion to fat and me when I am fat.
Isn't it amazing how my husband and I found each other to perfectly play out this very dysfunctional scenario which I am sure stems from something that was never quite resolved in childhood?
