Oh! That kind of person! I had a friend like that, and it didn't matter what people told her, she didn't get it! She would walk around in freakin' belly shirts and one time these guys driving by yelled out to her "put on a shirt!" You think she got it? Hell no! Her response was "I thought guys liked girls who showed off their stomach!" She seriously didn't get it! So just let your friend think she's skinny. As long as she's happy, that's all that matters!

Will chances are ur friend already know he or she has weight. So why would u have to tell them? U said she weighs 185 now how can she think she's skinny?
Maye she's just one of those people with weight on her who doesn't care that she's heavy or maybe she's person wh has confrence in herself and she just really don't give a damn about what othrs think( which is a good thing ) because most people with weight on them have low self esteem( which is a bad thing)
So u might just want to take in to count that ur friend depends on u just seeing her as her friend u say anything about her weight may hurt her feelings.
So as her friend please realize that she has a mirror and she knows she heavy so unless she wears clothes that or too tight or revealing, u may want to tell her to either cover up for other reasons.

I'm sorry, but that has to be the dumbest question I've ever read here on Yahoo Answers. Don't you think that your friends knows about their body a bit better then you? Don't you think this friend of yours looks in the mirror everyday and knows they are or are not fat? Wake up!!
If you are a friend, you would shut your mouth and be a friend.. If your friend wants help loosing weight because they asked for help, then yes you support them and help them, but in no time do you open your mouth and insult your friend about their weight. Do Not Do It... And any comment about their weight would be an insult....

I'm sure they look in the mirror every day. I don't think they need you to tell them.
Nice of you to be concerned though. You can be a good influence on them by eating healthy foods around them and inviting them to do things to burn energy like walking or jogging or skateboarding or rollerblading or something.

I'm pretty sure they already know. it's sortof impossible to get away with being overweight and not know it, what with super thin celebrities all over the TV every second. Take it easy on your friend. They'll figure it out themselves.

Two of my best friends are and they both know it. I don't pick my friends based on their weight. If you do, that's really sad and you are way too concerned with something that is none of your business! How would you like it if someone said "You are fat!". How would YOU feel?

I mean if they ask you, you should be honest. But said it in a way that doesn't hurt their feelings. Maybe you should try to help her by asking her to join a gym or eating healthy doing it together. Like that she will not feel insulted.

Depends if you want them to stay your friend or not. If they ask if their *** looks fat tell them the truth but don't just blurt out that they are fat and need to lose weight.

Uh, I think they'd know already.
If she's thinks that's she's skinny, then she's fooling herself and / or living in a dream world. Who are you to burst her bubble? Just let her be.

lol yea i agree i think they would kno.
My friend was not fat but she thought she was but i would not tell the friend unless the friend was sickly fat then you might want to tell them that they might want to do some thing but do it as nicely as possible
