I'd say, if you want to win her back, the first step would be to apologize for not being supportive in the past. Because if your love for her is dependent on her weight, she's not ever going to be comfortable or secure in your marriage.

I have profusely. But she's past it and doesnt care what I think. Complementing her before I knew any of this was going on only made her angrier.

Oh and no disorders, but she's struggled with weight gain on and off for YEARS.

Of course it did - because it reinforced that your love for her was conditional.

Before I comment on MLC I would need to know ages and years together.

If you want to find out for sure you can.

Please PM me your email address.
I can't do that.

Why does the MLC diagnosis matter to you?

Not necessarily. If I’d struggled with my weight off and on for years, and my spouse was very critical - and then I found some method (healthy or unhealthy) that finally allowed me to lose weight - I’d probably be thinking “F you H! “

I just want to make sure I'm not doing the wrong thing by detaching. MLC = tough love. If she's walkaway then softer gloves are needed no?

So how would I fix my mistakes in this case?

No it's all the same you have to give her time and space. If she's having a PA then yes you get a little tougher but it's all basically the same.
