Talking about weight always brings up the 'You never criticize of womans weight' people who act as if even thinking your SO is unattractive to you because of weight is somehow a crime.
Lets change 'weight' to 'tribal face tattoo'. If you SO wanted a tribal face tattoo should you be supportive and not say anything, even if it makes her/him less attractive to you?
While I am the first to admit I have made mistakes in getting my wife into the diet/exercise lifestyle we now have, there is nothing wrong with letting your SO know that you are not happy in that regard. Communication is key in any marriage and you should be able to tell them your true feelings. When my wife said that I needed to start going to the gym I didn't whine an fuss and think she didn't love me anymore and was trying to control me. I saw she was right and I hit the gym. It gave me the kick in the ass I needed to start going, because I KNEW I needed to start exercising again, I just wasn't motivated enough to do it.
So now we are both looking a ton better, are healthier, and need to buy new clothes since the old clothes are now to baggy to wear. Neither of us would have done this if we didn't communicate our feeling on the issue. If I'm a jerk for it, so be it, I'm a jerk.
