[quote=Anonymous]Nothing makes me want to shut down completely more than my parents commenting on my weight. They are constantly asking if I've gained or lost, despite the fact that I have stayed within about ten pounds of the same (healthy) weight since I was 16, and it makes me want to put on 30 pounds just to spite them. Whatever you do, don't harp on her weight, and don't assume it's causing problems in her marriage unless you actually know that it is. If you actually want to help, offer her babysitting or housekeeping help. That way, if she wants to use the extra time to hit the gym or cook healthier meals, she can. It's really hard to find time to exercise when you are taking care of kids all day, unless you have someone else to watch them for an hour. Unless she lives under a rock, I promise you that she knows she has gained weight and that it isn't healthy and doesn't look good. Telling her that will not help anything.[/quote]
