A friend of mine has a problem with his weight. His getting heavier and I fear that he might get a heart attack anytime soon. He can't control his eating. I told him to exercise and lessen his food in-take. He told me, he doesn't care if he dies because of it. As a friend, I want to change his opinion in life and help him become healthy.
Can anyone give a suggestion?

it's hard to change something that has become a habit. if your friend likes eating so much and he has been like that for a long time, you will have problem changing that. Your friend himself will have difficulty changing his ways. i suggest you talk to him about it and let him see the BAD SIDE of being fat. if you have to be harsh then i suggest you do that if that is what it takes to help a friend. tell him he doesn't look good with this figure now or that he looks so behind from all your other friends because of the excess luggage of fats he has. the more you let him see how bad being fat has made him, you might get him closer to a change of heart and eating habits. if he is convinced that being fat is not only unhealthy but likewise ugly to look at, he will change. you have to target his mind and heart first then you are likely to succeed with the next steps you will take.
i hope that helps mikko.. take care.

This is a very difficult concern to handle. Because this is self-containment. Nobody will help your friend exept himself. You can just recommend to him but if he doesn't listen then its a waste.
