for context, my girlfriend lives about 8 hours from where I do (yeah, it's bloody wonderful). The other day I mentioned I was really pleased with my progress at the gym, how I've lost some weight. She groaned and told me how she really doesn't want to hear about it and how she disagrees with "that sort of thing."

What gives? I thought chicks dig abs. At the very least it should be a good thing to be healthy right?

I'm not going to stop, I'm looking and feeling the best I ever have, but I'm puzzled by her attitude.

(incidentally she used to be a model, but she hates that whole business now - that might be relevant)
