Here’s my question. I’m training to be a personal fitness trainer. I’m in shape and I love to work out. Being fit is the most important thing in the world if you want to live a long and happy life; I believe this. My girlfriend wasn’t out of shape when we met but recently she’s been getting fat and she won’t do anything healthy like work-out or eat the right things. I can’t seem to get her motivated she just tells me I’m saying shes ugly and i don’t love her anymore, i don’t get it. can i get her to want it for herself? is that possible?

Sounds to me like she may be depressed or upset about something which could explain her lack of interest in exercise and keeping herself well. Talk to her and find out if anything has her down. Perhaps to motivate her to exercise, try to find a way to make exercise more fun and appealing. If you can cook, cook healthy meals for her.
P.S. Make sure that you let her know that you DO love her, but you’re concerned for her health.
You could encourage her to be healthy by taking her to healthier places to eat, making healthy meals, and going on “active” dates like boating or biking or rollerblading. But you can’t FORCE her to change. You can bring it up every so often but you better do so VERY gently because girls are super sensitive about their weight. If she doesn’t want to be healthy and is going to keep going downhill health-wise, then maybe she’s not the girl for you.
