Saffie, I do and would appreciate what I've got, or had, or hope to have again.
Physical beauty is important, no doubt, maybe expecially to men. But even when my W was quit a bit heavier, I told her she was beautiful and that I loved her (not enough apparently, but I did tell her, and meant it). See Sara's comment about how she told the dog ILY more than her husband. That's what was important to me, I wanted my W to say ILY and want me. I didn't care if she got fat (2 ceasarians, one overseas the wrong way).
