Mild Sleep Apnea
My husband was diagnosed with mild sleep apnea last year and has been trying to lose weight to help. He's had no success. He started a construction job last march and has been eating better and has not lost one pound. We are trying to find out what could be causing the no weight loss after being working in such a labor intensive field. Any ideas. Essentially — Is he a soda drinker? What about a late night snacker? Both of these things make it very hard to lose weight I have found when I stopped both it really helped a lot.
Here's a good resource about the link between sleep apnea and being overweight:

Maybe your husband could look into a customized weight loss program to help him figure out why he's having a difficult time shedding the pounds.
