How to Get Your Girl to Shed Some Pounds
Get Your Girlfriend to lose weigh
One of the most difficult things to do is tell your women that she’s packing on the pounds. It happens to the best of them. But it is rightfully our job as men to get them back in form. Below are six suggestions for easing into the topic.
1- “I don’t like the way that outfit looks on you anymore.”
Every woman has a go-to getup. If you don’t know it, you don’t know her well enough to discuss her flabby stomach. The only thing that could ever change the way an outfit looks is the way it fits. Tell her you aren’t sure why it looks odd, suggest a looser knit, and watch her forever skip the nachos with cheese.
2- “I can’t get over how fat I feel.”
Women have been commiserating with each other for eons about the thickness of their thighs. If you launch a pity party of your own about how heavy you feel, and let her know at every turn, she’ll become fat-obsessed by osmosis. Women have been doing it to each other since the dawn of public washrooms.
3- “Your friend isn’t nearly as attractive since she gained that weight.”
Be careful. Delivery is everything. Pick her homeliest friend and you can let your most outrageous BS fly. Pick an attractive pal and you’ll be explaining your wandering eye until you give her a ring. Focus on the improbable target, and she’ll be thinking that if you find her bookworm buddy hefty, perhaps a diet should be on her docket.
4- “I have a new female trainer at the gym.”
She won’t suggest fewer trips to the gym, but it will drive her bonkers to think that another woman is spotting your squat thrusts. She’ll sign up and be there within 24 hours just to keep an eye on you.
5- “The saleswoman said it was for smaller women.”
If you want your girl to shed some baby fat, spend a couple of bucks on a nice little fashion piece a couple of sizes out of her reach. If she thinks she is thin in your eyes, and the only thing telling her otherwise is a piece of clothing, she’ll work morning, noon and night to fit into that cursed thing.
6- “Let’s help each other lose a couple of pounds?”
Let’s face it. If you tell your girlfriend to lose some weight, she’ll withdraw your all-access pass to her wonderful folds. But an honest commitment to work together to become fitter and shed some unwanted girth can only be met with the excitement that your investment in her is the same as what she is willing to invest in you. Losing weight is no small task. Make her sure you’re worth it.
