[quote=Anonymous]You could start by approaching the situation with concern about your brother’s mental health (since that’s likely the cause of the weight gain based on what you posted) instead of “ew, fat.” If you’re really so concerned about his well-being, I would try talking to him about how he is doing without mentioning his weight. “Hey Joe, are you okay? You seem more stressed and anxious than usual, which would be understandable given everything that’s going on.” Then follow his lead on how the conversation goes from there. But to extent you dispense any advice, focus on things that can help him manage that anxiety, like daily exercise, not his weight.[/quote]
