Her original goal was 40lbs, she's lost 20 so far - but has reached a plateau and has been wavering at her current weight for the past couple months. She's especially upset that everybody else can lose it easily, except for her (her friends, other people at the gym - especially older women, etc.)
I'm also involved in the gym. I have my goals and I've done alot of reading, research, and stuck hard-fast to what I've learned, and my results only get better and better. I've tried talking to her countless times about her diet, her workouts, etc .....
always a no go and has been a conflict area of our relationship (me trying to give her advice).
So I've learned to completely shut the fuck up, and I used this strategy recently while she cried and told me how fed-up and depressed she was on the matter.
She's doing Weight watchers which seems to teach that you can eat whatever you want, as long as you don't exceed your daily points. She does cardio and some classes at the gym, roughly about 4 days/week on 1.5 hrs.
I've tried telling her that she needs to incorporate weight training, needs to eat 4-6 meals per day, and needs to ditch the whatever you want methodology and start eating a bit cleaner. She finds someway to refute and rationalize all of this.
What am I supposed to do in this situation? How do I even "offer support" when she isn't open to taking real actions to conquer her problems?

The Calorie Counter is a way to count your daily calorie intake and manage your weight. Have her put it on her side for the whole day, so she can see how much calories she burn daily, because everybody is different. After she see how much calorie she burn a day, teach her how to read food labels. Believe me fam, this is the most effective technique, when it comes to loosing weight.
