First of all and speaking from personal experience and what I know of so many others, it is NOT always easy to lose weight, no matter how hard you try because for one thing there can be complex underlying issues, both physical and/or psychological. Also, they have to want to do it for THEMSELVES for it to work in the long term. (I am sure we know how many people can lose weight, even a LOT for short times, and then put it all back on and then some). If the Dominant is constantly ragging on the submissive about her weight, it's probably just going to make her more depressed and insecure which for many will mean it will just exacerbate their eating/dietary problems. IMHO if the submissive or slave WANTS to lose weight THEMSELVES then a supportive Dominant can be fantastic. I struggled with weight issues for a long time on and off, and finding the answer to a complex problem was not easy - I also had some significant medical issues to overcome. Also the solution (in my case) was not easy - I have finally lost a lot of weight by living on 600 calories a day for nearly a year and am now sure I will reach my goal weight. (Part of my diet involves taking Optifast, otherwise 600 calories really wouldn't be do-able in the long term nutritionally). BUT one key for me was my Dominant's caring, support and encouragement. That inspired and motivated me even more, plus it just reinforced the deep trust we have in each other and I especially have in him - that we're here for each other, no matter what, and our relationship actually pivots more than anything on kindness - yet I am sure I would walk across hot coals if he asked me to!
