Dear Diana,
I'm 24 and my boyfriend is 23. We've been together for three years now. Our friends say that we make a cute couple, but I don't believe them. After all, I'm quite plump in appearance while he's very thin. I've been thinking of joining a weight loss programme, but he says he does not mind.

Dear Maneka,
If you want to get in shape, you should do it for no one, but yourself. Also, if your guy genuinely seems to be fine with your fatness, that means he loves you for who you are. You must not belittle your relationship by letting such issues come in the way. At the same time obesity could lead to health issues, so for your own good it is better to shed weight. The most integral key to a good relationship is communication. If your weight issue makes you uncomfortable as he is thin, talk to your guy about it.
