Hi, this really isnt about me its about my friend. See, shes my age and 5'6 and 150 lbs. She used to be really skinny like 2 months ago but she gained like 20lbs in 2 months. All she does is eat, and I'm really worried about her. She doesn't think that she is overweight and she thinks that I'm just over reacting, but shes my best firend. If anyone can help mehow to tell my friend, email me at artgal16713@aol.com

Hey a real freind would just say somthin like, I dont wanna be mean but i noticed you have gotn a little bigger mabe you should lay off a little bit on the food. And my best freind crystal always eats alot when somethings wrong, one time when you see her eating ask her if anythings bugging her. Hope all goes well, Good luck

Hi, it does sound like your friend may be overeating. Try to help your friend by suggesting healthier food to munch on (since she/he insists on eating) Try fruit instead of chips... stuff like that. Otherwise, its your friends choice. One day it will come to her, shes overweight. but as of right now, shes ok, just not in great shape. I wouldnt tell her shes fat or anything. just gently say to her, "you need to keep that great body you have, dont blow it on snack food when ur not hungry". or if you are overweight, "Will you help me eat better, will you try this diet with me?" Just make up stuff like that. but dont give her too many compliments otherwise she will think shes fine and wont change her habits. Good luck.
