Yes, well, we can be quite sensitive. I mean, some people no matter how hard you work your arms/abs/thighs are just NEVER going to have the definition they want--their bodies aren't built for it.
Instead of saying, yeah I can see them, a better approach is-- "DIet and targeted toning could help you feel better." You're saying yeah I can see them without hurting feelings, you're giving her a plan of action.

ABSOLUTELY. I routinely eat more than my overweight friends. But... then again, I am active--I work out everyday and have a fast metabolism, am burning more calories, so require more calories.
