Is there a good way of getting my friend to lose some weight?

This isn't about not accepting them how they are but you being worried about their health. What if they're binging on junk food, not doing exercise, gaining more than 20 Ibs in 4 months and having both high levels of cholesterol and triglycerides. She used to be thinner and healthier last year. This isn't a case of genetic nor issues with hormones. This is a case of binging eating and not taking care of yourself.

Is there a good way to getting my friend to work on her diet and seriously lose some weight?

That's not how she was.

You can’t manipulate her into a diet without hurting the friendship. Why not express your concerns about your health and get her to empathize with you? See if there’s a cause you can address. If she still refuses to lose weight, then there’s nothing you can do. If it makes you uncomfortable, you’ll have to keep it to yourself if you want to keep the friendship. If you continue to bring it up in a negative way, speaking from personal experience, she’s going to distance herself from you based on the belief that your friendship is shallow and she won’t want to spend time with you anymore.

Well first you've gotta find out if they even want to lose the weight. Some people don't value health or vanity much. I've met types that are more motivated by pleasure or even money.

Your update is incorrect. It was always there.

Her to eat healthier, that's all you can do
