Why did my ex gain so much weight?

[Anonymous]

I'm not being snide or rude, but he used to be heavy into body building a few years ago and was ripped. We weren't together long at all, but in his latest photo I saw he had gained a good 30 lbs from the last time I saw a photo of him. He's still handsome in my eyes. We broke up because he wasn't willing to meet my needs and he blocked me at the time. I've actually lost 25 lbs. Because I'm still hurt over it all and I'm trying to make it so I'm actually worth something to someone next time. I think he's with someone new but I don't know how you can have so much pride in yourself flexing and all to that (even had old memes of him joking about people) to where he is now Even when I was with him there was barely any light in his eyes. I don't find it funny I'm worried.

My two exes turned into very tubby guys, which is odd given that one is a coach. The other worked out with me all the time — he said he loved to watch me “bounce” (smh) — but since his mom rook over his life and married him off to a terrible little chippy he’s become really enormous.

Maybe he just lost motivation? It happens sometimes, body building is something that takes a lot out of a person's time and energy.

He's muscle converted to fat and once that starts it's just downhill

I'm sure he is doing just fine.
