My sweet husband's brain does not tell him that he is in pain nor that he is full when eating. Any advice?

That has become a real big problem for me. When he fell and broke a rib, he did not know it nor admit to any pain. But I could see the pain in his face. More importantly now, he continues to eat until I physically stop him. All he wants to do is eat anything and everything. I have to stop him because he will continue to drink coffee with lots of sugar and cream, lemonade, crackers with butter, his meal, dessert, and will continue until I stop him. Refuses any sugar substitute.

Since we are in a retired community with meals, I have to watch him closely and stop him from gorging and from taking things off the tables of other people. He never enjoyed sugary stuff before which shows how this disease changes people. And He was always thin until now. I am afraid that he will make himself sick or kill himself with an exploding stomach.

I am sure that by now his had developed diabetes. I won't know until the doctor can order another blood test. And the doctor wanted me to keep him under 1800 calories to reduce his belly fat. Absolutely no way of that.

People around us cannot believe the amounts he eats. I am tired of fighting with this "toddler" who will just go around me to eat. When is it surrendering to the disease and knowing you cannot change things? And when is it neglect? Any ideas from anyone?
