Does this mean that English native speakers usually don't comment somebody's behavior??
In my native language, Japanese, there are some ways to express our ideas in such a situation above, and I'd like to know if there is similar expressions in English, too.
Thank you.

If this is a very close friend and you know she has been struggling with her weight and has asked you to help her stay on the right path, you could say something like "Sweetie, remember you asked me to help you make better decisions? I just wonder if this is one of your better choices..." and leave it at that.

It is otherwise completely unwise to comment on the habits - no matter how harm
