Well sure, there's a few things you could do - You could start with looking beyond her physical appearance and putting more importance in the last few years you've spent together. I doubt that you have stayed with her for her physical beauty alone, personality is usually what makes someone love another person.
If you're still that concerned about her weight, suggest going for long walks or something. Be more active with her. Have more sex. Encourage her to do things WITH you so that it doesn't come across like "Hey honey, you're fat". That's a great way to lose someone fast.

that suxs. Id ahte to be in your shoes dude.
I suggest not telling her and YOU start exersizing more, going to the gym, eating better then after shes used to it ask her if she wants to do the stuff with you.
There is no easy, or sugar coated way to say, "Baby i love you but youre getting fat." LOL.

Exactly. Tell her that her HEALTH is important to you.
Make working out a fun activity for the both of you.

definately suggest that you two pick up a physical activity together. and sugar coat the hell outta this one!(comin from a chic)
like, "hey hon, i was thinking, spring is coming and my new's year's resolution was to stay/get in shape. I want to start jogging X miles every 2/3 days. I would love the company if you would join me. I hate going alone and we could use the quality time. I miss you. You know with our crazy schedules we don't see each other much and I think this would be nice for the both of us."
If she live with you, go to the grocery store alone one day and buy lo-carb, lo-fat everything. if she asks, tell her "it's for me. please support me in my decision to be healthy and keep me away from a ton a junk food" If's there's nothing in the house to eat but health food and diet soda, she'll eat that.
just an idea. good luck.

Yes, sex is a great way to lose weight. I'd prefer the honest way. Of course she may get a little hurt by it, but she'll know how you feel. If you're only together for physical reasons, then maybe it's time to shop somewhere else.
If there's love there..be honest and offer to help her out. Diet and excersize together.

We both have very busy schedules. Full time work/full time school. Our free time usually consists of eating dinner, relaxing, and having sex. She eats healthy food for dinner, but loads up on junk food all day. There's pounds of candy around the house.

I have had this conversation before with an ex-boyfriend.
"Honey, you knew when you met me that I wasn't attracted to overweight people. I haven't changed, but you have. We'll diet together whatever, but too much more weight and I won't be sexually attracted anymore."
It's a harsh way, but it's honest and straightforward.
But I was talking to a guy. Most chics are way sensitive.

Take charge of the food shopping. Buy healthy, convenient snacks and put them around the house instead of candy.
