If your mate's waistline measures 40 inches or more, he's at severe risk for obesity-related diseases such as heart disease and stroke. If your husband is of average weight or greater and adds two inches to his waistline, it represents a major gain. If a woman brings her husband's weight gain to his attention in a caring way, it can be the incentive he needs to start dieting. Don't invent excuses for impotence. If your mate is unable to get or maintain an erection long enough for satisfactory sex in at least one out of four tries, he's considered impotent.

Your husband's longevity is directly related to his health habits. You can calculate his life expectancy by reviewing the following chart.
