Your friend Jessica really needs help. You are right that if her wrong eating habits persists this will make her too fatty. I think you should consult a doctor for your friend and check that if she is experiencing any kind of eating disorder. Tell her that walking and exercising are good for her.

If you really want to help your friend, talk to her freely about her eating habits and how it will affect her. Tell her about the problems she’ll going to face, once she’ll get obese. Tell her to work out in gym or join aerobic classes and you too join with her so that she can go there along with you. Also, consult a doctor in case none of these tips work.
