Bariatric surgery will be his solution.[/quote]

I don't know why but insurance won't cover it. He's scared of surgery but it does seem like it would help. If he wanted to do it, we'd find the $.[/quote]

Ozempic?[/quote]

He's been on it for years - it helps with his diabetes but not weight loss.[/quote]

Perhaps talk to the doctor about increasing his dose? It should help with the nicotine addiction, too.

His addressing the processed food addiction first may not only solve his problem and could conceivably put the diabetes into remission, but having surgery without doing so makes it really likely that he will regain regardless or that the unaddressed addiction will transfer. A really good book about food and transfer addictions, written by an addiction medicine doctor, is https://www.amazon.com/Food-Junkies-Recovery-Addiction/dp/1459741978/

Do you have kids, OP? Not to be crass but make sure you have life insurance, as expensive as it may be.

Therapy is certainly a good start. Best to you and DH, OP. That he felt safe to be vulnerable with you about a core sense of shame seems very positive. Some people with binge eating disorders find journaling to be helpful, too. [/quote]
