do you knowo how we can make her lose weight or help her relize it's time to lose weight?
Hm, and for some odd reason when you deleted your last question and reposted it, your cousin's weight magically changed. I wonder how she gained so much weight in a matter of hours. Very strange. Hmm...
(Eh, give me another 1, I don't care. Just because I didn't give you the answer you WANTED to get, you have to increase her weight to make her ACTUALLY obese. Hm, sad.) [ lbwhite89's advice column | Ask lbwhite89 A Question ]

i think you need to realise that you might be hurting your cousin by calling her fat and saying all that stuff to her about her weight but i know your only trying to help her. you need to see it from your cousins point of view. why dont you try to approach her in a different and nicer way...
maybe join a sport or lesuire activity with her, show her she isnt alone because eating healthy and losing weight is really hard and your cousin needs to know you want to help and give her the motivation she needs.
or you could do active things with her... things she likes doing like maybe bike riding, swimming,
tennis, soccer, netball or you could even go for a walk with her every day or every now and again.
just remember its not going to be easy for your cousin thats why she hasnt done anything about it yet... so show her your with her all the way and you want to help she will realise that and appriciate it....
hope that helps you xoxox

CheerCandi answered Friday June 1 2007, 7:54 pm: ok heres what you do. play with her. start being active (but dont tell her)play games out side and keep her out of the house. then for food look up healthy snaks that taste really good (like a fruit smoothie with no added sugar) do it together. make it fun. encourage her to make it all the time. (replace it with soda)
hope that helped! if u have any more question just ask me whenever on whatever. tell others too =)
