However, a thyroid problem and apathy are two very different things. Assuming it is indeed apathy, which it may not be, but it's definitely not a thyroid problem. Thinking about it, perhaps that's the problem: I don't even vaguely understand why she doesn't take better care of herself. Hmm...

that's what my point is... is that in the longer trend of the relationship you'll have an idea as to what is acceptable and what is not, and what the root of that really is.
the physical problem trounces the apathy in some way right? or if it doesn't makes it extra clear to you what is important to you, as shallow as it seems but it is still important to you.
I believe since I quit smoking in 1997 I gained 10lbs, since I quit drinking 2 years ago I gained 20lbs...
I didn't really change my excercising habits (I live in a major city so I walk all the time) and over the years my income has increased so I do go to restaurants more often.
am I taking better care of myself? or am I not? taking care of ones self is a challenging concept...
