When I married my husband ten years ago he was fit and healthy. In our ten years of marriage he has grown from a trim 155 pounds to a huge 350 lbs. Given that he is just 5'-4" in height, saying he is really tubby is an understatement...
If I say anything about his weight he will sulk and order himself a big party pizza with a cheese crust. He will eat it all, including the greasy delivery box! His employer told him they are worried about his health --- sulking, he called in sick for two weeks. While he was at home he ate practically non-stop. (He did take breaks while I went to the store to buy more food).
When he first started having significant weight gains I thought he would eventually realize he has to loose weight. That hasn't happened yet. Having seen even fatter people on TV shows like Jerry Springer, Montel, and Maury, I now worry my hubby may never stop until the gluttony kills him. I find the whole situation very depressing.
Do you have any advice that can bring me hope?
Any advice for his big sorry ass?
