[quote=Anonymous]Agree with pps. My BFF of 22 years is morbidly obese. Her obesity led to major complications with her pregnancy. She developed preeclampsia, nearly died in OR during an emergency c-section, her baby was delivered at 24 weeks. The child died after 12 days. Seven years later my friend is still morbidly obese, diabetic and infertile. Her doc has told her she might get pregnant again if she could lose 100 pounds. It is a daunting task for someone who has been obese her whole life. At 38, her biological window is quickly closing to lose weight and try and get pregnant. I only discuss weight with her when she brings it up. But as her best friend and someone who loves her I do think it's my responsibility to compassionately encourage her to do things to try and do all she can to lose weight. My advice, OP, wait for an opening and kind but firm in discussing the life saving need to lose weight when that opening occurs.[/quote]
