    Heh... There's always the option of bribing him to be more active.

    Tell him you'll give him a BJ for every 10 miles he runs... He'll be in shape in no time!

    I have been married for 18yrs and my husband has been trying to lose weight since I met him. In the beginning it was only 10lbs. Now 18yrs later he should lose 45! The older you get the harder it is. I have tried every approach to get him motivated. From subtle hints, asking him to join me running or at the gym, to down right telling him his boobs are bigger than mine! His friends playfully call him fat. I just keep living my healthy lifestyle and trying to get him on board. I honestly think he would be alot heavier if I wasn't a constant reminder to him. But the rest is up to him and I can't get him to want it. I wish he would work out with me and get serious but it's up to him.
    Good luck. Just keep being a good example and keep asking him to join you. Maybe it will click. =)
