450 pounds? Are you sure? I'm sorry, friend, but. about five years ago, maybe?

if she hasnt noticed then shes got bigger issues then the 450 lbs

Good chance she already knows!

about 400 pounds ago!

She probably has a feeling already. When she looks in a mirror she probably sees a whale.

when your house foundations collapse.

Umm take her close to the morgue, that way you wont have to be taken far afterwards and she wont have far to go to identify the body. Sheesh, do you even love her?

Weight is always a very sensative issue, but when someone is severely morbily obese, then the weight can cause harm to their health such as diabetes, heart disease, high cholesterol, and many other different diseases. The best way to appraoch your wife is to tell her that you love her and you want her to be around for a long long time and be there in your life and your kid's life(if you have kids). Let her know that you love her for her, not what she looks like. You do not want her to lose weight for beauty, you want her to lose weight for health. You want her to be healthy, happy, energetic, etc.. Be nice, be sensative. Tell her that you will take her to the doctor and a dietician and they will help her get a really good exercise and eating plan. You can help her with her eating and exercising by helping her cook, and by walking with her (or whatever exercise she decides to do) Swimming is the best exercise cause there is almost zero stress on the knee joints. Good Luck to you and your wife.

Honey, not to b rude but that passed u by about 300 pounds ago. Otherwise, ask her to take a walk with you around a nearby lake or something, when she starts getting really winded really fast, bring up how sometimes you worry about how healthy you 2 are..maybe you should start doing stuff like this more often..and so on..

When she wants to get on top.

You don't have to hint. She already knows.

Obesity in America is a growing issue (no pun intended). It sounds as if your wife may be medically obese, and may require more than just a diet. I would recommend talking to a healthcare provider. When someone is medically obese, it has many more affects than what we can see on the outside. Heart disease, diabetes, and thyroid disfunction are just a few of the common problems associated with being medically obese. The best time to aproach the issue? Although she is your wife, and you want what is best for her, I understand where you may be reluctant to talk to her about this. As a doctor, I counsel people all of the time on their weight related issues. Call her doctor, and let him know how concerned you are. He should have no hesitations about talking to her about getting some help and making sure she stays healthy. Thats why you guys pay us so well (lol). Good luck to the both of you, and I hope it all turns out well.

Stop being a jerk! Love her more. Maybe you are the reason why she is trying to hide. She is hiding in there somewhere.

First of all if your wife is 450 pounds over weight, that means she must weight close to 600 pounds, and I doubt that she doesnt know that she is overweight. The weight is just an issue, it is possible she is miserable married to a jerk like you! It could be that she doesn't want you to touch her and she is trying to kill herself slowly with food. It could be she was molested as a child and hasn't dealt with it, (experts have reported that obesity is a factor in over 90% of Child molestations, along with alcoholism, drug abuse, self injury, depression and many more negatives). If you are not a jerk, and you love your wife, ask her to help you save her life, ask her to go to a counsel er with you and seek therapy so she can have a happy life. Obese people are not happy, I don't care what anyone says, it sucks to be fat in this society of "try to look like a pre-pubescent boy" fashion. Why not take her out for "a cup of coffee and a chat", then as nicely as you can, ask her what you could do to be supportive of a more healthy lifestyle for you, her and your family. Ask her what she could suggest for a better overall lifestyle is and then listen to what she is saying, ask questions, don't try to cut her off and inject your opinion, just listen to what she has to say, then when she is all done, tell her you love her and are worried about her life span, that her heart is having to work too hard and you want her to make healthier choices and you are here to help and be supportive. Good luck.
