Worried about husband’s future health

Worried about husband’s future health

At what point do you inform your husband they are unhealthy and overweight? When Charlie and I first started dating, he was in decent shape.

Charlie was a little soft even then, but at least he was healthy.

Over the years, he has quit doing anything physical. His job requires him to sit at a desk and type on his laptop. All of his hobbies are completely sedentary. He likes woodworking and completes the projects while sitting down. He often smokes his pipe on the porch. Charlie enjoys reading while soaking in the hot tub. At this point, the only physical thing Charlie does is walk to the table to eat, pee and take a daily shower. I am quite worried about his health continuing to deteriorate. He already complains about back, neck, shoulder and hip pain non stop. For now I have given up pestering him about getting fit. My boyfriend is just determined to be a fat buy at this point. Even if he is going to be overweight, I’d like him to make some attempt to improve or protect his health. I would hope he would take a few minutes to at least to stretch in the morning and evening. I am sure he would have less pain if he would stretch his muscles and increase flexibility and range of motion. The muscles tighten up while he is sitting for eight hours. He then just sits in a new location and does nothing to care for his body . I cook the healthiest foods possible, but that only does so much. I am worried that Charlie will develop heart problems or joint pain later on in life. I keep myself in peak condition because I plan to live a long, healthy life. I don’t want a husband who is on the verge of a heart attack at 40 because he refuses to so much as stretch before he sits down all day.
