If I had a friend walk up to me and say smoking is bad and you shouldn't do it, I'd say hmmmm... I must have missed the memo on that, but thanks for letting me know.
If I had a friend come up to me and say you're overweight and being overweight is bad for you, I'd say fuck you, and not be their friend anymore.
Larger people don't need to be told that they're fat. I think they get the message when that size 16 just doesn't fit anymore.
There a PLENTY of things that are bad for you including smoking and being overweight. But in the end.... if you're not the one who is the smoker or is overweight, it's not your problem and it's DEFINITELY none of your business.

Exactly. And if they don't get the hint that their clothes are getting too small for them, the looks, stares and comments from strangers will most likely give them a hint. When someone has to deal with it from strangers (and most of the time family), who needs friends adding more?
