Al the nice clothes I have don't fit anymore. Once I lose the weight to get back into wearing them, I'll have a similar complaint that all my casual clothes are too big on me now.
Can't seem to win, in any direction I turn. But the best direction is to avoid the kitchen, deserts and large portions. Doctors all say it's better to be trim than paunchy or fat.
As for the wife's comments, unless the marriage is relatively new, we should all be used to them by now. Don't let their sarcasm or snide remarks rub you the wrong way. Stay Calm and Collected. That leads to better, longer good health.
