you could have a scrapbooking party or some other kind of "remember back when ________" event. Sometimes the person who has gained a lot of weight might not really realize it until they SEE it. Gradual weight gain is a monster... just 7 pounds a year betweeen high school and college graduation will be the difference between being "thick" and "damn what happened"
I would advise people who are concerned about their friends weight to do things with them like taking a walk, going swimming, playing tennis, etc. A lot of communities have health fairs and free screenings so go TOGETHER and check that stuff out too... maybe it will serve as a wake up call.
Even small things like finding something to do BESIDES going out to eat will make a difference.
I personally wouldn't talk about the weight, but rather invite them to be more active. They'll get the hint.
