How Lazy Is He???
Seriously - if he's really lazy, that means you can easily exhibit some control over his diet. If he's too lazy to cook dinner, and such.
Salad and fish and chicken - goodbye pasta and steak and fried cheese. After this diet knocks off about a pound or thirty, you and he will both be amazed at how un-lazy he will suddenly become.
Seriously.
Not only will it be easier to lug himself around with 30 fewer pounds (That's a LOT), his heart and circulation will be better, breathing and sleeping is easier and more effective - and when he sees himself looking a little better, and clothing fitting better, that will provide an incredible amount of optimism and motivation to continue this trend.
I speak from experience.

Nah - There's nothing wrong with worrying about the health of a loved one who's trapped in a self-destructive mindset.
The term is called: "Letting oneself go." And it is very difficult to get someone who has let themselves go to get back into a healthy lifestyle. But it is most definitely possible. I wish you luck.
