I do not recommend the this approach. If you are not planning on ending the relationship.....NEVER say, "I can't do this anymore".

Also, 'tough love' hurts. She is hurting enough right now. Do not add another stress to her life at the moment. If she doesn't feel like she is living up to expectations, wait until she doesn't think she is living up to YOUR expectations.
