How physically motivated are women?

I am in a marriage that has gone sideways. I have gained weight and my wife doesn't like it. I suspect however that if she still loved me it would be less important that I have put on weight. That is an assumption of course. I am assuming if ahe still loved me like she did she would see me as she wants to see me.

My wife gained 80 pounds and I no longer find her attractive. Our sex life is pretty much non-existent and our marriage is on the rocks. I lost 100 pounds and we are still having problems. Still love her but I just don’t want to do sexual things with her. Physical attractiveness is still a factor in a marriage and if you get complacent and stop taking care of yourself, it can suffer. She is now trying to lose weight which is all I can ask for.
