My Dad always said I'm one of those people that needs to be hit over the head in order to get their attention. Sounds like your girfriend is the same - your hints are going in one ear and out the other - you need to sit her down and explain your feelings to her. Give her a reality check. Tell her that you're worried about her health if the weight gain continues - whatever it takes - but make her aware that you have noticed the difference in her looks. Be kind; be gentle - but be specific.
You're right about the age thing - if she's 25 lbs overwight at 21, by 35 she'll be huge. If she doesn't change her eating/exercise habits soon, she'll be fat forever. You <i>both</i> need to understand that.
Good luck
