[quote=Anonymous]OP, you cannot change your husband. You already know this because you've tried. So if you continue to nag him you will only increase the tension in your marriage. If he'll see an outside person like a nutritionist, that would be great. I suspect there's some compulsiveness here and something like Overeaters Anonymous may be helpful. Compulsive eating is an eating disorder. Ultimately this is like any other habit in a spouse that you cannot control. You have to decide if you can live with it or not and act accordingly. And because of the stress on you, and the fact that there is an emotional/compulsive aspect to your husband's eating, you may want to see a therapist to help you negotiate what to do. This is not about making the right foods or saying the right things. As for the PP who thinks being thin is an achievement by which people's virtue can be measured, I agree with the poster who said . . . controlling, very controlling.[/quote]
