@Juggle I think this other post on that site (about the author of that article) would probably be a good read for your gf http://www.nerdfitness.com/blog/2011/07/21/meet-staci-your-new-powerlifting-super-hero/
It just kind of explains all of that in more detail with her as a case example. I feel like it does a pretty good and gentle job of dispelling some of those myths. @JWestland had a good idea re scales although I look at one all of the time for some reason.

Ah, "tone" the woman magazine term for
Moar muscle
Less fat
(but OMFG no size please)
;)
Women and I've been guilty of that, can have a tendency to undereat and not want to put on any weight. If she's like that, make the scales disappear :p
