Hi there, got an interview with for a BA in consulting (insurance technology) but I’m kind of skeptical. I’m coming from another integrator consulting company. 1) What is the culture like in EY? Are you “agile”. 2) Would working in a specific service line in insurance meant it’s hard to exit?
3) Does EY still use utilisation for consulting? 4) Can I work on international projects? Any nice perks and benefits? Thank you!

OP you sound like a compassionate, loving and supportive mate. She is very lucky to have your unconditional love. So many others, in this circumstance, would adopt a selfish, judgemental and uncompassionate stance.
Congratulations! You earned FB's biggest douche post of the day! Please treat yourself by putting Icy-hot on your balls.
She is the one sacrificing it. Not you. You are merely sacrificing vanity...
How do you work at McK without recognizing facts? Obesity is not a "vanity" topic, it's a health problem.
If you're wife has become "obese" as you imply and this is something new that she has recognized as a problem, why don't you offer support and try to figure out what is really going on with her so that you can help her work through it? You know, like an actual PARTNER. It's a marriage and that takes worse and if you can't handle something like weight gain, I'm not sure you can withstand more serious and challenging issues that will most certainly arise as the two of you grow together. Not trying to lecture or even berate you for this, but it's so clearly wrong from an outsider perspective
^And I'm a 25 year old and have figured out at least this much about relationships. Honestly if this is an issue that is causing you to "be done", you were never really there to begin with...:/
Maybe she eats her feelings cause you're a shitty husband who complains about things that should stay between you two?
What's sad is, if his spouse could read this now, she would be emotionally devastated, and if she could have had a crystal ball to see how unsupportive he could be when she is grappling with a minor issue, she might have been able to avoid the marriage in the first place. She deserves someone who can provide unconditional love, and support. I feel genuinely sorry for her. PS I am a guy
Is there something else going on? New birth control or medicine that has impacted her appetite? Depression? Seek the cause and then work on a solution together.
Man everyone is rather quick to jump on this guy. I think he's got a right to be upset, and I don't think any part of his post said he hasn't been doing whatever he can to support and help her (maybe he's not, but we wouldn't know). Folks sure are quick to judge. At the end of the day though, it's her decision and drive that will change anything. And clearly she's large enough that she agrees it's a problem, so I'm confused why people are asking 'how fat is fat?' That's subjective, and the only two parties whose opinions actually matter are in agreement. That being said OP, that sucks. But definitely remain supportive, maybe she needs professional help if she's eating to cope or something? Or maybe she just doesn't care anymore, which would for be unfortunate.
Well clearly divorce her and try again and go through the same thing all over again in his next marriage as soon as the smallest challenge comes up and he tries "talking to them about it several times" (and ps, weight gain is a small challenge in the scheme of life GUYS)
Leave her and get a hot 20 yr old. Being fat is being lazy. Clearly she isn't motivated by you.
Why is everyone hating on OP? Give him a fucking break. If he said that his wife was pissed that he got fat from eating shitty food you'd tell him to go to the gym (AND YOU WOULD BE RIGHT). But because he's expressing disappointment and frustration with his wife for doing the same he's an asshole? Get off of your high horses - who here wants a porkass SO 🙋♂️🙋♀️? Anyone? Right. Cut the guy some slack.
/s
Imagine what you'd want her to do if the role were switched.
K1 "being fat is being lazy." Stereotyping, judging and fat-shaming is no way to go through life, son.
*phatter
Maybe she's dope as hell. 😎
So much for partnership
OK GUYS it sounds like OP has talked with her about it multiple times and she's taking no actions to change. What is OP supposed to do?
D2 is assuming that the two parties are in agreement rather than considering the option that she is merely agreeing with him to avoid the badgering...
