My son needs to lose weight. He's 19. How can I encourage him, help him out, without being a nag?
If he's self-conscience at all about his weight then it's gonna be kind of hard for him to talk to you about it. I don't know if your son is an exception to being a 19 year old male but when I was that young I thought I knew everything about the world and didn't want advice from anyone.
The best thing you can do is probably to just let him know that you're concerned and are willing to help him if he wants help...the rest is up to him.
OR
You can tell him what I wish someone would have told me when I was younger and say "The fitter you are the more Vag you get to pound in your life, plain and simple".
You may not want to have to think about your son's sex drive but trust me...it's there and it motivates him more than anything.
