If it's public, say something in a private message in an encouracging way. They may know they need to change their food selections and your encouragement may be just what they need. Just don't nag... good luck and what a good MFP buddy you are to want to help! :smile:

Count the walking...but I don't count housework unless it's deep cleaning or moving furniture, etc. We are a doberman rescue home, so I'm there with you on rescues!!! Good job! : )

I would hope they wouldn't want to lose a valuable member!!! Good luck! :smile:

Thanks! :happy:

Thanks! bump

I concur with what everyone else is saying....don't bring up the weight / health subjects unless she does first. If she's depressed, she doesn't need to think you are judging her.

All that in 30 minutes??? RUN, RUN AWAY....! Don't look back! :noway:

Honesty is always the best policy. Don't torture yourself by sitting through an evening knowing it's not going any further. You don't owe him anything. Just tell him it's not going to work out between the two of you. Good luck!
