Just back from 8 days on the road, and heading back out in 2. I should be happy that I stayed stable. Ate poorly, but exercised every day.
Now that my wife travels with me everything is a compromise. She has the worst eating and lifestyle habits imaginable. After 30 years I accept that she is anti-fitness. Seems to be threatened by the idea that her body is her responsibility. I occasionally, subtly, suggest that maybe, just maybe....cookies and cake coupled with token exercise a few times a week isn't the same as "nothing works". 😁
I would love it if she could open her mind to the concept of personal accountability....bigger issue. And it would be nice if we could end poverty and have world peace. I'll concentrate on those, better chance at successes.
I would appreciate any thoughts on how to help a partner/spouse understand the difference between "nothing works" and "doing nothing meaningful tho change your poor habits doesn't work".

Humility helps me with this issue. I have had great progress with my choices over the past year, however, I force myself to acknowledge that I *still* have been *blessed* to have a body that responded the way I wanted it to, and a temperament for certain ways of eating and exercise. This allows me to be a bit more 'patient and understanding' 😁 because there are soooo many things I do not have a temperament for that others in my life do.

Unfortunately, the only thing you can do is to continue to lead by example. Getting healthy is hard work and no one can do it for you. Be supportive and positive. Your wife would probably love nothing better than to be the healthy person you encourage her to be. Watch "the obesity code" presented by Dr Jason Fung it is on you tube. It is a great source of information for those who believe "nothing" works. Good luck

Praise her on those rare instances when she makes a healthy or healthier choice. Praise yourself and treat yourself when you hit a goal and tell her all about it in an excited way. Who tends to buy the groceries and does the cooking? If she does, perhaps you could start trying some new meals in the kitchen yourself - maybe that will peak her curiosity to try something new and think about choices while on the road.
