As her bf you have a lot of influence on her self image. You can discourage her from reading Vogue and Teen magazines that worship the underweight. You can complement her on days she feels fat and encourage her to eat meals with you. Be sensitive and be aware of the little signals you give her that may affirm her low self image or support her bad habits and stop doing those things. Also, maybe you can get the support of her closest friends in this process. Best of luck to you and her.

Sorry man, but it won't matter what he says. If his girl has a self image problem only she can deal with it.
