Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes are on track to earning a new nickname: TomFat, sort of. After running the New York City Marathon and finishing the race with a time of 5:29:58, Katie has become a lean, mean running machine.

But while Tom adores his wife, he’d like a little more of her to love. Who wouldn’t?

After Katie sprinted through the streets of New York City, Tom, told OK! that she “inspires” him, and now Tom is hoping to inspire her… to eat more.

Recently, the couple joined a few of their closest friends for a dinner. Putting his movie star role aside to be a caring hubby, Tom entreated his wife to dig in. “Honey, eat something,” a guest heard Tom gently urging Katie.

“When Katie said she just wasn’t hungry, Tom pushed further, saying, ‘Come on, you haven’t eaten all day, eat something please,’” says the source. Katie then seemed to appease her worried husband by consuming a selection of the appetizers that were being passed around.

“Tom loves good food and loves to eat,” says a friend. “He was just concerned that Katie had gotten herself a bit worn down. He’s always looking after her that way.” And, of course, a couple of extra pounds on Katie won’t hurt. [via]
