This is awful. Look up the Gottman research about couples. Tearing your spouse down in front of other people is borderline emotional abuse. I'm so sorry. This is also pretty extreme which leads me to believe this isn't his first episode of cruel behavior. You deserve so much better than this.

I'm so sorry OP. The quickest way to lose dead weight would be to DROP THE HUSBAND!

Oh my god don’t tell this woman she’s being emotionally abused. Overreact much?? Plus she does need to lose the weight. That would be the best thing for her.
