Should I Tell Someone I Work With to Lose Weight and Get Healthy?
Question by Ttown: Should I tell someone I work with to lose weight and get healthy?
This women I work with is 49 never been married and and has to weigh over 300 pounds. She is always eating. She walks very slow and hunched over. She looks like she is miserable. I seen a picture of her “from a coworker” when she was young and she was a knockout! I guess she was stood up at the alter by some dude. Then she started working all the time and gained weight and never dated again. If she lost weight I know she would atleast be more happy. I really pitty her. Would it be wrong for someone to try and talk to her about her health and weight? I feel she needs an intervention. She is going to die fat,sad and alone. I am not even trying to be funny. Any opinions?
Thanks for the advice. I talk to her everyday. She is nice.. and I have worked with her for eight years.
Trish. What if I had not used the word intervention? Would you have been able to spare me your assumptions?
I am her friend. I see her five times a week for hours a day. I know the names of her nieces and what shows she likes. If I did not know her.. Then why would I care?

Hey =]]
what you can do is comfort her into eating more “healtheir food” instead of telling her straight up to lose weight. Is nice that you are trying to help.You can tell her to run up the block or jog a little =]]
good luck!
