My Hubby was not too sympathetic for a long time. He just did not understand why I had to eat and drink differently than the rest of the family. I would fold under the pressure and not take care of myself for long periods. I would get sick, then try again, until it was too much family hassle. When I had the first heart attack at about your age, he all of a sudden got very involved. Now he says he "could kick myself" for the way he was about my Diabetes. Tell your Hubby to PM me and I will tell him all about it, and why it is so much easier if you have the support of your family.
