[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Has your husband ever gone to therapy? Sure we can tell him to eat less to lose weight, but people who are morbidly obese often have more going on than just loving food. People often use foot as a way to cope with anxiety, depression, or past trauma. [/quote] OP here, and I agree 100%. He will not go to therapy. I've mentioned it. Again, unless he is determined to change, it isn't going to work, so even if I 'demand' he go, he doesn't want to go himself. But, yes, I think the weight is so many things - his mother being proud of his weight when he was a child, all his friends growing up being big too (so identity issues), a football culture that heralded big boys as the went through childhood, a sense of betrayal to his family who are all big, a denial in what he actually consumes, a tendency to be absent-minded in other areas of life which leads to mindless eating - so many things.
