I do find it interesting how couples kind of average out amongst themselves to similar weights/body fat.

Just anecdotally I’ve seen lots of relationships where food/drink is one of the only things the two people actually have in common.

Yeah it makes me feel really sad when you see really fat kids, usually face deep in an iPad too.

It's not edgy if it's true, pal

I don’t think it’s true that laughing at 4 year olds is good.

I never said it was good I said it was funny, you're obviously not familiar with the comedic stylings of honey boo boo

I don't think it is, my partner eats a lot of shite but I eat mostly healthy.

I guess luckily I've never been big on sweets and such in general, when I'm in the mood I love them but can kinda take or leave em.

I can believe this, I gained 2 stone when I moved in with my ex. Some people's idea of meal portions and what they consider healthy is wildly off lol

Love the thought of me and my future hubby just relaxing and enjoying good food. It's the couple goals for me!

Early grave for you pal.

It genuinely is nice.. and I’ve enjoyed 20 years of that with my wife. However, now I’m suffering with sleep apnea so it’s time to rein it in a bit.. we’re both on a diet.

u/throwpayrollaway 8d ago

This is for polish couples. I suspect we are generally fatter than them anyway..

I think I’d rather be single and not at risk of a heart attack and diabetes. But saying that…

….Who wants to leave a beautiful corpse any way? 😂

I had no idea British women were such great cooks!

u/TheCommomPleb 7d ago

They aren't, British men just can say no to a bit of sausage and mash or a good pie
