He never really chastised me for being on it, but never would cut back on carbs himself. Now he weighs 285 (6'5" tall) and takes medicine for high blood pressure. The last time he was at his vascular surgeon, she told him that his other doctor will probably put him on cholestrol medicine as well. Funny, how I now see him cutting back on the carbs. He often tells me that all he had for lunch was a cup of soup and a broiled fish sandwich.

I just tell him that if he ever wants to go on this with me, he should let me know he is serious and I will tell him how to do it. I do think that he has shed a few pounds in the past few weeks though. If I am successful, maybe he will believe me!
