How to Suggest That Your Girlfriend Lose Weight
Couples who make it through the honeymoon period typically stop caring about their appearance the way they did when they began dating. The suggestion that your girlfriend should lose weight can be devastating to her if you make the suggestion in an offensive way. One of the most important tips is to make your argument be about your health. If your girlfriend notices that health has become a priority for you, she may want to make a change and live a healthy lifestyle as well.

Encourage your girlfriend to partake in physical activity for a date. If your girlfriend is gaining weight from Christmas cookies, ask her to come skiing with you. In addition, you can go to the river or beach during the summer, where she might feel pressured to look good in a swim suit.
