[quote=Anonymous]Re:sleep apnea. It took years with my husband to finally get evaluated and yes it turns out he has it. He isn't even overweight. I would gently push and then I just gave up. We ended up sleeping in separate rooms due to snoring. When he complained about always being exhausted I said "That must be so frustrating. I'm not going to bring up sleep apnea, because I will trust you know what's best for you." Eventually he got fed up and made the appointment. Re: weightloss. That's tough. I know quite a few former athletes who are quite overweight. I lost a lot on my own with weightwatchers. Have always loved exercise and was consistent with that. My husband NEVER pushed me to lose weight and if he had, it would have been painful. I would not push your husband. However, I will just put out there maybe he needs group activities. What sport did he play? There are informal adult teams in places for soccer/baseball, etc and tennis clubs. I would stop pushing him. Let his doctors do that. Instead reinforce any efforts he makes whether it's looking into activity groups, working out once in a blue moon or whatever.[/quote]
