And-- maybe exercising is too difficult for her. Remember.. when you're that obese, it can be extremely taxing on the heart and respiratory system. Maybe she needs to find a program specifically designed for someone with her problem. She probably needs to start a lot more slowly-- like on a walking program.
She needs help.. professional help-- probably in the form of a psychologist, a nutritionist and a private trainer.
It's wonderful that you're so concerned, but all you can do is be her friend. She needs you.
