I am convinced that my husband is doing everything he can to be as unhealthy and unattractive as possible.

He worries about other factors of his life that are not at all health or appearance based.

He has a very prestigious job, makes good money and saves nearly every penny toward retirement. He frequently invests, building to his portfolio and is doing well in the stock market. He is unwilling to spend more than a few dollars on a haircut, won’t schedule an appointment to have his teeth cleaned and wears the same old clothes he wore in college. The main thing we argue about is what he eats and his refusal to do anything physically related. The nature of his job has him sitting at a keyboard all day long. His various hobbies all center around him sitting as well. He rarely moves around and never increases his heart rate. He doesn’t get breathless or sweaty. I’m not surprised that he is experiencing some physical issues. He suffers from neck, back and hip pain nearly every day. He has put on a significant amount of weight in the tummy region. At first, I attempted to convince him to do personal training at the local fitness center. When that didn’t work, I suggested a group fitness class a few mornings before work. I then realized he wasn’t going to try any of my recommendations. I have been begging him to at least stretch in the morning and at the end of the day. His muscles would benefit. He refused to do that as well. My new plan is to feed him healthy meals. It’s the only hope I have of improving his health and weight. Since he won’t participate in any sort of physical activity or take care of his body, there is no other choice.
