how easy/difficult is it to lose 30 lbs in a month?
i have not seen him at the squash club for over a month. the old h would have been playing every day and rigorously because he hated the treadmill. squash was his favorite cardio sport.
the thing is this .. he is getting older. your metabolism is no longer the same as it used to be. and he has health issues. heart disease runs in his family history. he cannot afford to indulge like that and then later on say "well, i can hit the gym and work this off". the doctor might test his blood pressure and say "it's off the charts, don't do anything to put added stress on your heart". he can't work out or hit the gym so now what? your plan to work off that 30 lbs is not happening. so you turn into the pilsbury dough boy? this isn't a far fetched scenario. it has happened before.
sigh .. so really, who's killing him? is it the marriage or mom's baking that he cannot stop shovelling in his mouth?
