I have the same problem with my girlfriend only the reverse. We grew up together and were always in theatre together; she is a competitive dancer so she is not only naturally beautiful but unbelievably toned and in amazing shape, she's also a musical theatre student with me, but I'm no toned, ballet, light on his feet theatre boy. I'm 6'3, 224 (thats after losing a lot of weight post football) and I'm more of a strong vocalist, not so much the dancing. I always have a hard time with my body when she tells me that I'm handsome or that she is attracted to me. My advice is be persistant about loving herself but I don't see anything wrong with encouraging a healthy lifestyle, over weight or not. Skinny doesn't mean healthy; if she is flaking then I suggest you start with her, begin and encourage her to come along if it's becoming such a large problem... there are lots of solutions... none of them are her just deciding she's pretty because I was always an overwieght kid growing up and we all know it doesn't work that way.
