I'm saying that it's not your job to monitor his diet, he needs to do that for himself, not put it on you.

In a relationship between equals, he should be using his own will and self discipline to make the right decisions for himself. I find it to be a bit of a red-flag that this is being put on you. What happens when he continues to gain weight and becomes unhappy? Will that be blamed on you? To what end?

The heart of it, is that if he fails to control his own actions that should be on him and him alone, as ultimately you can't really stop him if he's not going to listen to you.

To top it off, it just seems rather unhealthy to fixate too much on your partner's eating habits, sounds like some sort of weird ass disorder waiting to happen.
