Remedies for Your Overweight Spouse

You have noticed that your spouse continues gaining weight while you watch helplessly. You need to do something and save your spouse from this problem. If that overweight body was to cause complications leading to serious health issues, your conscience would never rest if you don't do your part. You do not need to be a disciplinarian with your spouse. Just be realistic, helpful and encouraging all the time.

Quick exercise suggestions for your spouse

Have you noticed some outdoor activities that your wife enjoys? It could be that your wife enjoys some jogging or table tennis. Ladies, how would he respond if you took him to the gym? Or have you ever tried that? Apart from identifying the needed exercise to keep your spouse active and off the sofa, you also need to be careful to select the kind of exercise that your mate will enjoy without straining or toiling too much. Some couples decide to take a walk together to visit some relatives in the vicinity or straight to a shopping mall. But most importantly, your overweight spouse should be taken to a trained physician who would confirm whether you are safer going ahead with the planned activity or not.

Monitor the diet lovingly

The tricky part is to avoid being too harsh and demotivating when approaching your spouse about this issue. Otherwise it may not yield the desired results. Instead of just deciding to deny your husband food, select his favorite and tasty food that has a reduced concentration of fat. Such foods are readily available on the market. Most of these foods can be procured for your overweight spouse at the most affordable prices. Additionally, you can also motivate them to increase the water intake between meals so that, there is a reduction in the consumption of food. Otherwise, why not start with small reductions in the amount of food taken on a sitting? This will go a  long way in succeeding. 

 Do you Have a program in place 

People are different and even their responses to different conditions vary. Therefore, consult qualified dietitians to provide a personalized program for your spouse that will even help your overweight spouse to reduce on the weight successfully. This will even help you to avoid encouraging your mate to drink too much water at a wrong time or take exercise at a dangerous moment. It is your spouse's life involved here, and you cannot afford to rely on trial and error. See to it that all the remedial measures you have to implement are approved ad relevant to your spouse.
