Get them into meth.

well first it has to be established that it's any of your motherfucking business what another person choses to eat-- like, say, it's your minor child.

in that case, ask his/her pediatrician.

on the other hand, if you just wanna butt in, there's no "graceful & kind" way, and it becomes a cost/benefit calculation.

lay off it fatty!

one of my friends' friend's... boyfriend.. okay my friend is a girl, her friend is a gay male..

the boyfriend of the guy friend told her 'arent you fat enough already' when she picked up the spoon to reach for the icecream. WTF Mr Bitchy Pants?!

Imho you dont have any biznez telling someone they are overweight unless you are their personal trainer or doctor.. their parter and its a medical issue? I think these are the only two/three reasons I could possibly justify as it being okay. Its not yr body so its not yr biz.

oh yeh I guess you could get them hooked on class A's if you were really THAT desperate to interfere with their body/lifestyle. Tho, that is probably more damaging than any minor weight problem.

Serve them the entire fucking cake and then when they take only one slice, say "Oh, is that all?"

Telling them to get into sports is a good one - running is sehr gut and free, and for the ladies, I hear that rollerderby is mucho fun. Swimming is nice and relaxing too, and cycling also (I cycle pretty much every day to and from work - an hour's exercise a day right there).

If you mean a booze-fat person suggest they drink less. If they are a food-fat person, tell them to eat less junk and walk more.

When greeting this person, ask "who's your friend?"

I've not been skinny since I was 8 years old. I wouldn't say I've ever been fat but I've always been a sorta slow bulky person. Adds to my character says some people.

And I'm not UNHEALTHY exactly so I'm fine with myself right now.

I told my bf last night that he is getting a little chubby, and I think I need to loose a little, too, and that we should start working out together. He sort of just agreed, and said nothing more about it, but today, it seemed he was bothered.

So, don't ask me, I guess.
