"How old is he? How overweight is he? Any history of heart disease?"

I'm sorry I didn't post this xMenace. He's 36, 6 ft 6 in and 350lbs. No history of heart disease.

OMG...thanks for the wonderful responces and letting me vent.

Slipperyelm-- Yeah, he's asked to test his sugar before and says it doesn't hurt. But he's reluctant to now cause he doesn't want to see his numbers...LOL

Ok, from looking at all these wonderful opinons I've made up my mind. I'm going to greatly reduce the amount of bad carbs I cook at dinner. Therefore reducing all around portion sizes. However, I won't even ask what he's having for lunch. That's a win win for us. I will also have faith that if he does go diabetic that he'll chose to eat right because it'll make him feel better. I say hope because I was one that learned to live with sugar in the 300 and 400's before I was diagnosed. I'd felt so bad for so long I forgot what feeling good felt like. I also like the idea of asking him to get a check up to get an
A1C, cholesteral and all the other good stuff 36yr old men need. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU again!!!

Ok, now brag time for me. This months A1C for me was 5.9 and that was with reducing my meds some!!! I've also started exercising this month two to three times a week and my sugar is getting lower. I had heard it lowers sugar, but I had to try it to believe it...LOL
