This is going to sound bad, but back in October I sat my ex-fiance/now boyfriend type thing (who was a meat and potatoes only kind of guy) down and said:
"I love you, and even though women typically live longer, I don't want to out live you by twenty years or more. Please eat some veggies that are not full of starch, and please be more conscious of what you eat. Your metabolism is going to slow more as you age, and your eating habits are already affecting your appearance. I love you no matter what, but you've said you don't like the fact that you're putting on weight. A more balanced diet in addition to your current workout will go along way."
He still eats mostly meat and favors potatoes, but he will eat more veggies and fruit if it is around. He also stopped eating fast food all the time and started buying leaner cuts of meat and drinking skim milk. While that isn't a huge change, it's a change that he's managed to stick with.
