    Default I don't know what to say to her????? HELP!

    Become a member to remove this ad.
    A friend of mine (we are both girls) wants to lose 10 pounds or so. I think she looks great as she is, but she wouldn't look bad if she lost a few pounds either. She is definitely NOT fat. She has mentioned her desire for weight loss several times and I don't know what to say! I want to be supportive if she wants to drop a few pounds but I don't want to be like, "Yeah, you should lose a few pounds". Because like I said, she doesn't really NEED to. More like vanity pounds. I only weigh about 110 pounds healthy, so I don't need to lose any weight so I can't be like "Let's diet together!"

    How do I encourage her to lose the weight she wants without me sounding like she's a heifer? She would be CRUSHED if I ever (accidentally) implied that she was fat or something.

    you dont have to go to either extremes. Just tell her that you believe she looks great but you support her goal. Even tho you may not need to lose weight, offer to go to the gym with her. no matter who you are, everyone can use a little more activity.

    Yes, I agree with Kallygirlie. It's good to just get your everyday fitness.

    Don't request you do something together for her, when you are at a happy weight and well not overweight just to please your friend..

    Do, tell her your honest thoughts as you have here about her weight.

    Do tell her curves are so wanted these days, by a man and women with bones are out.

    Just say , good for you if that's what you want, but darn, your already hot and sexy, leave it with you...
