Redi-Whip

Is there any way I can confront her about this, and not cause a fight? Her and her mom do this occasionally, and they just pass the bottle back and forth. Some women really have no self-control..

Oh that's disgusting!

Sorry, I have no advice. Just

Sure I like some whipped cream once in a while, but a spoonful on top of icecream or a drink is fine. I don't understand why these restaurants/cafes throw this whole glop of whipped cream on top It's not that yummy...

Seriously though, it will cause a fight no matter how you say it. But that's just unhealthy and gross. There's 150+ calories in just one cup of whipped cream. Diabetes, High Cholesterol, Heart Disease also come to mind.

Quick story for ya. I'm thin and one winter I got a case of Reeses Peanut Butter Cups and a case of Dark Chocolate Kit-Kats which they only sell in Canada. Well I had 1 of each just about every night. I went for my annual and was shocked to learn my cholesterol shot up to dangerously high. My first reaction was that I don't eat greasy foods that much, and how could it be so damn high. Well fiancé was the one who pointed out to me about the candy I was eating all winter and how the Sat. Fat was extremely high and would raise my levels. I honestly didn't even put the 2 together. Anyways, that was about 3-4 years ago and my stomach turns at the thought of a Reeses or KitKat now. I barely even eat chocolate now.

So the question is, does your GF even realize how bad it is for her in the amounts that she's eating?

Don't buy redi-whip and then she can't eat it.

Ask her when she's due.

Not sure if that would piss her off more or less than telling her to stop eating whipped cream..

how does her mother look?

Like an older version of her.. She talks about her own weight issues too, and they always mention plans of working out together. Unfortunately, they are the almost the same exact person.

How could I even talk to her about it? We just had a big fight the other day (unrelated ). But I honestly don't think she knows it is bad - she probably just thinks with the logic that it's just once in a while that she's doing it, and she'll eat good the next few days and be fine.

There is probably no way, I mean you could mention the amount of calories/fat/sugar, etc etc..but most likely will start trouble.

I completely agree with this.

You mentioned that she lost a lot of weight in the past... you could go at it from the angle of wanting to be healthy together and not buying junk food anymore (this means both of you). To point a finger at her alone will start a world war for sure, and in the end she might end up doing it even more and/or hiding it from you because now you've given her a complex about it.

Sorry there's no easy answer.
