[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't really get the sense that OP is nagging him. It sounds like she's been trying to be helpful but her DH is resistant to change his habits. I don't blame her for feeling frustrated. If her DH has been ignoring the doctor's advice and eating whatever he wants then he is acting very selfishly. But he has to be the one who wants to change.

The nutritionist's advice may not have been helpful anyway.  The ADA diet is high-carb, and the most recent thinking is that LCHF is better.  She is trying to change his eating habits for him unsuccessfully, and he's dealing with a scary diagnosis in his own way, what you term "very selfishly".  If she is cooking dinner every night, then she should enlist his input on what he wants to eat, and what he should be eating, rather than preparing meals that leave him hungry.  [/quote]

Metformin is the game changer.  I don't know that you can eat LCHF if you are taking Metformin.  That is why someone needs to get educated on what this guy is supposed to be eating.[/quote]
