Trust me, Ellie: I've tried. I cook lean at home (last night we had roast turkey with mushrooms and baked baby potatoes) but then he goes and eats a taco for lunch. He says he will control it with exercise but then he is always too tired.

He has a whole gym in his office and does not use it. We even have some equipment at home but he resents any attempts at 'mothering' him...

I've only been able to give him fish oil capsules at breakfast and that because D gives them to him. I understand OW had given him a ton of different vitamin pills that he still has at his office... but that is one of the subjects he never wants to talk about.

And the worst thing is that he watched his mother die, and it was not pretty. I've even told him I do not want him to do to D what his mother did to SIL and him...

I bought a glucometer to check his FBS in the morning and has not even taken it off the box.

I can't win for losing...
