There are MANY different ways to interpret the original posting, and it seems many here have done that. I'm going to avoid the comments about piginess and see if I can get the gist of what you're after.
I think I can see where you're comin from in that you're thinking that if she's really trying to lose the weight, you think her eating habits need to not be counterproductive to her working outs, essentially the calore burn intake concept. There are different metabolism cycles for different people, so be wary of equating food intake as too much food - ie Sweetpea's thin but good eater scenario.
If she has mentioned to you any frustration in getting off those last few pesky pounds and asked for advice, this observation is one you have made that be hindering her in her goal, here's a possible suggestion: How about making a date cooking dinner? You can find a recipe for something tasty but healthy. You can determine your portions based on the amount of food you prepare, and can have fun at the same time. I will advise that restaurants are not always a good judge of eating habits, as I know I see them sometimes as my place to splurge, especially if it's food that won't keep well in a doggie bag.
