My Boy's weight concern


Question Posted Friday January 22 2010, 1:24 pm

I just started dating my ex again (He's 23) and he is overweight. He talks about how he wants to lose weight because he said dating me he feels like a "walrus". Lately for a couple of weeks he's been eating late at night and the either that night or the next morning he'll get sick. Has this happened to anyone? I want to push him and give him tough love to lose weight but I don't want to offend him. I'm scared that he's going to make himself really sick or give himself a heartattack because of how he eats. Help please?

Approaching someone with the topic of their weight can be a touchy subject. Sit him down one on one in a comfortable setting and voice your concerns. Explain to him he's at risk for a heart attack, diabetes, and more health problems than you can imagine. Tell him you love him at any size, but you won't be able to share your love for him if he isn't a live.

Furthermore, eat healthy and exercise around him! If you live together, remove anything high in fats and sugar from the home. Find ways the two of you could exercise together, such as taking walks, rock climbing, etc. Losing weight is much easier with a support system.

Stop him right now!

Eating late dinners is the devil's advocate. No wonder he's sick! Stop it right now and make him eat early, give him some tough love, and support him along the way.

Eating late dinners/meals = fat, sickness, decreased life span, mood swings.

So get him up and out of the dining room at night! Let me know how it goes.
