@ldrlaw Oh, dear! This might sound pretty harsh, but please read it in the light it is offered. You can only do what you can, make the resources/lifestyle changes available to switch to, and offer all-out support. Your husband ultimately decides what he will do, and when you have done all you can, keeping after him may not move him to change.

My husband was on dialysis for 5.5 years before his transplant, due to high blood pressure. It took a lot for him to see what he was doing to his own body, and he vowed to make changes. He did, even though I see some slipping back to old habits now.

We are always here for you to vent, and if I can think of more ways to help you get through to your husband, I'll certainly post! Do you or he know anyone who changed their eating habits around and became healthier, that he could talk with?
