A few kilos? So what she is like 180cm and weighs 83kgs? Really that's within tolerable, may still have good looks, too.

More adductor in wide stance squats, more quads in narrow stance squats. More hip mobility required for wide stance, more ankle mobility required for narrow stance. Less range of motion in wide stance, more range of motion in narrow stance.

If your stance is too wide (very wide) you may start to get valgus collapse of your knees, which is potentially bad. If your stance is too narrow (given you can't push your knees out far enough) your femurs will hit your pelvis on the way down.

If you can't do both you need to work on flexibility.

Give us some of those jedi mind tricks OP. My gf is in OK shape and going in the right direction but I may need some devilish tactics if things change

Nah she's 5'2 and weighs 65kg. I still think she's sexy as fuck, I just wanted to nip the weight gain early and get her on the right track, so i didn't end up with a whale.

Pt 1.
She has a big dog, which she barely used to walk. I subtly shamed her for not walking her own dog for a few days until guilt set in and she started walking it regularly. Once she had done that for a about a week solid, I spent some of my spare time training the dog to run whenever she gets taken out, which forced my gf to do more than just placidly walk the dog for 10 minutes and achieve nothing. Gf has started enjoying the jogs and the energy she has in everyday life now.
Daily cardio: Done

Not so much a mind trick as just leaving no alternative, but I took over the grocery shopping and only bought one pack of the chips she likes. Everything else is clean, nutrition food. Showed her how to spice/marinade shit healthily, made it a bit of a competition to see who could make the best stuff (we're both pretty competitive people) and now she loves to make tasty, healthy dinners. It took about a week or so of bitching about no tasty num nums in the house for her to get a taste for veggies and fruit instead of potato chips and chocolate. The one pack of chips is still there, but they don't even get finished most of the time. I meal prep and she loves helping me make everything and having healthy shit ready to eat during the day.
Portion sizing is still a bit of an issue but it's getting better every week
Healthy Eating:Done

She fell for the "women don't lift because they turn into gross manbeasts" meme, so I've been encouraging her to come to the gym with me when it's quiet and just do some basic weight training. I kept myself in boxing shape from when I used to fight, I like shit on facebook about women who lift/recovering fatties (not gym selfies from sloots though, I'm not looking for the jealousy angle) and talk to her about my own weight loss (from 115kg to 62kg at my lightest, 72kg now) It helps that one of my mate's wife has been lifting for a few years and she's got a real nice body, so whenever we hang out with them the subject of the gym comes up and my gf gets more and more interested every time. My mate's wife is in on the plan and helps me out. Gf has started asking me questions about workouts and shit so with a bit more guidance I'll get her to come regularly.
Lifting: On track

Eh, I like 'em thicc so I'd be stoked if she just lost a little bit of the belly/arm fat. She hit a fucking sweeeet spot when she first put weight on but now she's gone a little past it.
