You’re not being awful, it is indeed possible to be healthy at (almost) any weight. Maybe the current lifestyle is healthy for her. But you are feeling unhealthy at your current weight and you absolutely should bring it up with your partner if you think you should be eating less and exercising more.

Maybe you didn’t phrase it very well to them, but trying to get buy in to help you with healthy living doesn’t a priori make you the asshole, and using a breakup as a threat was a dick move on her part. Who the hell breaks up over their partners meal portion size?

It’s possible (but unlikely in modern society) to be obese but have good nutrition and activity levels high enough to mitigate the health effects such as high cholesterol). We’re talking manual laborer to elite athlete activity levels here.

I mean that might technically be the case, but I imagine at that point that one’s weight would get in the way of said manual labor and Olympic athletics. The fact is that any doctor in the world would put “maintaining a healthy weight” alongside “quit smoking” at the top of their lifestyle recommendations. Anything else is just :amerikkka: AmeriKKKope.

Obesity is a social crisis created by capitalism. Negationism on that point is not fundamentally different from the people who say climate change is natural and not that bad.
