Answers:
Ask her to go on bike rides with you or go running or swimming with you!.
Make her some healthy snacks and then eat them with her!.
I'm sure she looks up to you so if you try to keep really healthy as well as trying to include her with that as well, she might learn by example!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I think selphie has the right idea!. You could check her BMI to see if she is overweight, but I don't think telling her would do any good if she is sensitive!. Just encourage her by setting a good example!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
