Personally if you want to help her lose weight, then encourage her to do so. If you talk to her on the phone when you're away be intrested to see if she has been eating healthy and excercising properly, but be nice about it. Encourage her when you see her like if she is sticking to the diet, tell her she looks pretty and she's lost some weight, that will help motivate her to lose more. Some times a simple compliment is enough. Just don't go extreme with it, compliment little by little so she feels like she's actually getting some where with the diet. Either way just keep supporting her the best you can and everything should work out fine =)
cheers, seems to be what i could go with =]

Being blunt is fine, as long as you say it nicely lol. Or if you can't try to hold your tounge, yes I know it's hard lol. Just remember negativity won't help in this matter. :hint:

Actually this could back fire rather badly. If you flat out tell a woman they are fat, then it could send them into a depression (pending how dramatic they are) and cause her to eat more, comfort food.

I've been married for over 10 years and this is the best advice thus far. She could also try the Weight Watchers program. The user is given a certain alloted amount of points each day and eventually the weight will come off on its own. Exercise will only speed up the process while toning the nice areas. :) Or maybe, buy her some kind of skimpy dress or some lingerie that she can't quite fit in yet, & this may give her a little motivation to change up her daily habits. I dunno, theres lots of different things you could try. But, I know how you feel bro. My Mrs. always whines about needing to lose weight but she can't never get motivated to exercise because she's either tired or something else is going on. Just remain vigilant and don't let her get discouraged and continue to compliment her as she progresses and everything will be fine.

Go do "fun" exercises at a gym, not like weightlifting but like pilattes, cardio, yoga, basketball (Don't be competitive), and swimming. These allow you to work-out with her in a friendly environment and she can lose weight easy with you. This means that you can create a good thing that both of you can enjoy doing together. That's my two cents anyways ^_^

If you proceed to slap her face, with a hammer, everytime she does something wrong or unacceptable, she will become perfect! (this is actually how women WANT to be treated, they are just too shy to tell you)
Before making such heroic accusations...first show me you can even lift a hammer, and try to hit me with it. I dare you...

Is she on Birth Control? If anything new was started alot of them cause weight gain especially the shots.. my brother in law's wife got it and OMG she looked like a f*cking umpa lumpa. For Real. If she's already upset about, it best not to mention it? Most of us dont like the fact of it being pointed out, especially if we noticed as well.

I just need some advice or some tips really and i thought this would be a good place to go.

I'v been with my gf for about 9 months now and am loving it, don't want to leave her, but iv noticed that she has put on some weight since we have been together.
She's always been very active and when i do go home (i work away from home alot) she does come out for runs with me and we do do alot.

i dont know what to do cos her weight is also causing her to be upset and iv said it is something she can change she just need to do a bit of excercise but i seem to be rubbish at saying things lightly (im very blunt)

need help on what i should do! please...

Gaining weight and is depressed? congratulations man your a father!

What he said.
lmao :worshippy:
Only YOU could notice that.

This is a sad thread for many reasons. First of all, when you love someone you love them unconditionally. Or at least this is the way it should be.
Also, I feel very bad for you shmanton because, as a woman, I can assure you there is no way to tell her that she needs to lose weight without her going bonkers on you.

Finally, my advice is to spend your whole salary or at least half of it to buy her a designer's dress that you know she would love to wear. Of course it should be of a smaller size.

And now i feel bad for myself for posting this, but really. Fashion in the healthiest motivation.

That is either genius relationship advice or a wicked mean torture method.... I'd go with the first! xd
