How to make small improvements which will lead to a healthier lifestyle?
One of our subscribers questioned:
“My husband and me are really opposed in our sights about health. I’ m nearly 27 and I’ m at the right moment in my life where I’ ;m thinking of the future. I don’ t want with the skittle more of an heart attack with 50 and I don’ t want that to happen to my husband either. I was raised up with a excellent education and I like to eat lots of veges. My of husband only likes the taste of red meat, potatoes, and of bread. Therefore in our marriage, I´ve adjusted my cooking to satisfy him, but I’m losing my temper… eating that stuff really drains my energy. In the past we smoked also and drank too much alcohol. I want to make the changes but he just won’ t. He will not eat my healthier cooking, he´ll just complain, go out and buy chips and carryout fries. He continues to smoke and refuses to take even a single vitamin. What shall I do? I can’t go on like this, and he shouldn´t either. His dad is 55, diabetic, and has the cardiac disease. I don´t want him to end like his dad!“
It isn’t hard as long as you make things that still taste excellent to him, but are a small healthier. The red meat isn’t that huge of an issue, just stick to red meat that is lower in stout. Only use ground round or sirloin for things that require ground beef. Steam veggies, if he wont eat them alone place melted cheese on his. Switch to multigrain bread, he will get use to it. And potatoes from time to time aren’t going to hurt him either. Also get a excellent juicer, if he wont eat his veggies, then get him to drink them. He wont know they are in there, use an apple and carrots to hide the taste of greens like spinach. Add a yam and beets also. The juice alone will make you both feel better if you drink it every day. And you get all your servings of veggies and fruit at the same time. Slowly over time when he realizes he is feeling better and has more energy he will start to change.
As far as the smoking, you cant make him stop he has to do that on his own.

I know your concerns but I reckon you’re going about it the incorrect way. You’re not going to convince a man he needs to change what he eats and does becasue you feel that way or say he should. You should eat like you want to and let him do the same. He is a grown man and has the right to make that choice. I’m sure he likes being told what he should be eating and doing about as much as you would like him telling you to eat like he does. Just know you are two different people and have different thoughts. If he sees how healthy you are eating, he may change his thought on things becasue he wants to but beyond doubt not becasue you are telling him too and fussing about it. Goodluck.
Let him eat what he wants. He’s a grown man. Maybe he’ll change his mind when he sees you eating healthy.
