Tough question: Do you tell your beest friend if their gaining weight rapidly?!
Question: Hi
I'm going to say no and I'm assuming your friend is a girl. Most likely she already knows and doesn't need other people to bring it to her attention - she will tell you when she needs your advice - it's a touchy subject that can hurt real fast and make things worse
If she has asked you to tell her that's different. But believe me she knows when she puts on her clothes - don't you realize when you put on weight? Most women know when they are retaining even a lb of fluid so I think your friend is perfectly aware she is gaining weight....

Yes Befoe They Sumosize!
definitely yes
i LOVE MY BESTFRIEND AND SHE DESERVES MY HONESTY yes i would then i will tell her i'll walk with her and it will be good for both of us
yes, if they are your best friend then they will know that its truthful... fat people are treated differently... nobody wants that
yes. ask them if theyre pregnant
Yeah tell them.
Can't hurt as an intervention. But don't be like, "baby, you're fat." That will get you a whole lot of not-friends-anymore.
Just mention to em that you've noticed they've gained a bit and you're concerned.
what are you trying to tell me?
yes
find out why they are gaining weight first they might be pregos and afraid to tell people.
Depends on the person. You should know your best friend good enough to know how they take critisism. Some people need it to better themselves. Other wise suggest joining a gym or a dance class together. If she is worried about it then she will get the hint.
Your right, that's a tough one. If your friends is happy then i wouldnt say anything, you dont want to be the one putting doubts about her appearance in her mind, if she starts worrying about it then help her out but until then i wouldnt say anything. If she asks your opinion on it though be truthful.
Yes you have to be super honest , wouldn't you appreciate the same thing back?
best friends should always be honest with each other,but you have to be diplomatic about it , tell her in a nice way.
no - cause they will know it.
a better way to help would be to make sure they are getting enough exercise by encouraging them to accompany you and to make sure their diet is ok by not eating any junk food yourself.
if there is no real cause for rapid weight gain they should see a doctor, and getting them to do that could be a real exercise in tact for you. perhaps speak to their parents and ask for them to take over that role. Your job is support.
yes you should. I bet your best friend means a lot to you so then tell her whats happing but everything in a gentle manner
Always be honest :
"the truth either set you free or sets you on fire."
Good Luck
I don't think you need to tell them. I am pretty sure that they know that and they don't really want to talk about it. Maybe just bring something up along the lines of eating healthier or exercising and see if that person bites on it and starts talking to you about the situation.
Absolutely. BTW, your usage of "their" is incorrect.
No doubt in it, I will tell my friend regarding it. Being the best friend should and I will advise him, how to reduce the weight.
daaaa of course you do youre their best friend
I would say yes. Obesity is a... forgive the pun... large problem in many 1st world nations. It can lead to many serious psychological, physical, and social problems and has many economic impacts from health care to infrastructure. If you care about your friend, I would find a safe and compassionate way to express your concern and feelings about the subject. Offer ways to help, especially with moral support. Most of all, make him/her feel as if they have a choice, and the ability, to deal with the problem.
I topped out at 270lbs, and it took me 2 - 3 years of diet and exercise to come down to a trim 190lbs. But it is more than possible to change your lifestyle to reflect happy and healthy choices!
Good luck!
