The way I see it is this...it doesn't bother me if he's more inclined to show physical affection to a slimmer me, the slimmer version of me is who he was initally attracted to as far as what he found visually stimulating. What I have inside, is what he fell in love with and I am secure in that knowledge.
However, what I feel is more likely with him (knowing him the way I do) is that he is responding to me working as hard at something as he feels he is at us. He really feels like he's having to work hard for "us", and he really is having to do quite a bit of work (changing his way of thinking, dealing with a woman who is nothing like the women from his past, overcoming conditioning from past r's etc). To him it probably appears I'm asking him to do ALL of the work, this diet my Dr. put me on (1200 calories per day) he knows is work for me....so I believe he's responding to the work he now sees me actually doing...not so much the weight loss, but the fact that he knows I'm working very hard at something that has been a life-long difficulty for me.
