But it needs to be about you - you initiate it based on your weight and desire to get healthier. Don't need to mention hers at all.
This is my current tack, I know I have to lead by example... it just set me off that last night she was complaining about her back and it bothers me that she is in pain but won't do anything about it. However I'm not a 'gym' guy so that isn't going to happen, fortunately we are in SoCal so there are lots of outdoor activities (hiking, biking, yoga in the park) I can get into... fortunately while I also love carbs I have done the low carb diet and have no problem with it.
