writes: hi. My girlfriend snores so bad that I just cant stick it!! I had to tell her one night because I just couldnt take it anymore I woke up and fell asleep about twenty times an hour. Anyway i bought ear plugs but they started to hurt my ears and gave me a really bad throat in the morning somehow. She lost a bit of weight a couple of months ago and the snoring got a bit better, but she put it back on and the snoring got worse again.Ive done a lot of research on the internet and have studied her snoring when she is sleeping and have found that the reason she snores has got to be a weight issue.The problem is she isnt fat at all but apparently you only need to be 10 pounds overweight to start snoring. I cant put up with the snoring anymore but I dont want to tell her she should lose weight to stop snoring. If she was really fat and she knew it perhaps it wouldnt be so hard to tell her that losing a little weight might help but because she isnt really fat I dont know how to tell her and I dont want to upset her and really dont wasnt to risk possibly giving her somekinf of eating disorder. She might be ever so ever so slightly overweight, wel i wouldnt say overweight but it wouldnt harm her to lose a few pounds. ive noticed she carries some weight in her neck which is a big cause for snoring. how do i tell her tho?? When wev searched for snoring causes together iv always said i dont believe its anything to do with weight to be kind but Iv had enough of not having any sleep now. Im also worried about the fact that she tells her parents EVERYTHING. if i suggest losing weight would help the snoring, her parents will think im a horrible boyfriend for telling her she needs to lose weight. Whats the best way to tell her?? I have to do it cos our relationship is really suffering!!

I think you need to tell her straight that the snowing is getting to you, and you think it' so bad it's worth her going to the doctor to see if he can find anything out for her and help her. You just have to be honest that it's getting to you, and you think a doctor might be able to help.
