    'It's going to be hard to confront the wife'

    Yep - sure is.

    I suggest you talk with her instead... (oh and offer to help)

    Sorry to point this out but you are coming over as a bit controlling...and hard on everyone around you. (I can do it too...)

    Telling people what to do is rarely the answer....but pursuading them might be. And there are lots of good ideas above, I especially like the approach of the poster who has worked out what motivates her each of her kids/husband.

    And YOU can lead by example on healthy eating and self control - no thanks I'm full, i'll have the fruit not the cake this time, mmm maybe tomorrow I already had sweets today. Can we have boiled not roasted potatoes please. Just the one thanks. I'll make sandwiches lets not waste money on a fatty drive by. I'm mean with the cream cos I love you! Etc.

    It's not all about what is bought by your wife....

    Hope this helps. Good luck.
