as soon as i went downstairs today, i saw sammie eating loads of food downstairs. i told her to go take a jog, and excersize it off. i stayed outside to make sure that she was really jogging. i watched her try to run, and less than halfway down the block she became red in the face, and started panting. she asked if she could stop because she was hungry and i told her to go around the whole block. when she came back, she was all covered in sweat, and exausted. she went right back into the kitchen and started to eat.then, we decided to go to the pool, but her only tankini was in the wash, and nothing else fit her but a two peice because her belly wasn't being squeezed in. when standing up, her stomach is the exact length of her arms sicking out in front of her. she has gotten really big, and i really didn't want her to go in it, because she looked inapropriately dressed. she can't really...

a little while ago, i caught sammie as soon as she finished four leftover hotdogs in the firdge. her stomach was still growling. i decided that since this was hard for her, i would let her eat whatever she wanted today, and she could start the diet the next day. she ran to the fridge, and grabbed the unopened chocolate cake we bought. i ate a bite to take some food away from her. she shoveled in peice after peice, until there was a tiny bit left. then, she went back into the fridge, and ate two doughnuts. i asked her if she was done, and she said no, not yet. she began to get some bloating, i think, because she unzipped her jeans, and lifted up her shirt so her belly was loose. i went out of the kitchen, and throughout the rest of the day, i saw her wolfing down meal after meal after meal. she then told me she had decided she dosen't want to be a model, she wants to be fat so she can eat...

this diet thing has been so hard for sammie. every time i see her reach for something unhealthy, i remind her of her goals. yesterday, she even started crying when i made her give up a hamburger and fries. we went to the pool a few days ago, and she wore a tankini. her stomach was too big for it, though, and bursted out. she didn't even go swimming, though, just sat and ate a pretzel and some soda. there wasactually this little belt to put on over the bathing suitm so i tried to get it on. i finally squeezed it over her belly, and closed it on the last notch. for a while she went around, looking squeezed in, and when she sat down, it opened, and popped off. looking at her belly, compared to the other overweight girls, she looked like she was much fatter than all of them. i was wearing a belt with my pants before i cahnged into my bathing suit, and it was too big on me, so i tried it on...

thanks for all of the advice. especially between kyle and sammie. i got kyle alone, and calmly asked him what his problem is. he tried to ignore the real question, and told me about how much sammie ate yesterday. after a while of trying to get through to him, he told me he was scared about her, and didn't want her to keep gaining weight. he told me he's afraid she'll get a health condition, and makes fun of her to try to get her to see she has to lose weight. by the way, kyle just got a call from abercrombie and fitch this morning, after staying up the entire night to hear the results. he made it! i told him i was proud of him, but would be even more proud of him if he went and told his sister what he told me, in a nice way. first, he tried to stall, by calling his girlfriend, but then i saw him awkwardly enter sammie's room. at first, her began muttering about all the food wrappers,...

hi all. today, i went out to a party, and i made Sammie stay home so she wouldn't gain more weight from all the food eating there. well, anyway, she screamed, and was crying when i left. when i came home, Sammie was at the table, eating chicken, steak chicken nuggets, hot dogs, cake, ice cream, chips, hamburgers, and a whole bunch of candy layed out on the table. i didn't bother yelling at her. then, when she was almost done with it all, she went over to the fridge for more. my wife was on a buisiness trip for almost the whole day, so i was alone with her and kyle. he asked her howlong she'd beeneating for, and she said, since we had left for the party. after she wasdone eating the second round, she took a break and sat down. i was about to yell at her for eating all the food, when i heard a popping sound. her button down shirt came halfway undone, and her jean button popped right open, ...

Naiome tried on a bikini, and then Sammie asked where she got it from. Naiome is a size 0, so i knew right away it wasn't something Sammie could wear. Naiome is very nice to Sammie, though, and tried to tell her nicely it wasn't going to fit her, by reccomending some cute plus sized women's one peices, and water shorts.it's so hard to go shopping with sammie, because she wants to wear whatever Naiome wears. the two have gone out for almsot a year now, and i heard Naiome just got a modeling contract for Abercrombie and Fitch. my son is applying today, and i don't know what to do if he gets the job. sammie will be so jealous, and i just want her to be happy. what should i do?

i was able to get internet access on the ship, so i will keep you posted with updates in my daughter. i am a little worried about her. since we've gotten on the ship, all she has done is eat. my wife told her to take a break, and go do something with her brother, but she started to cry, and said she was hungry.whenever we go on cruises, she usually gains alotof weight, but she has never eaten this intensely before. i am worried it is because we told her we were okay with whatever she looked like. by the afternoon, it was time for the chocolate and desserts buffet to open, and truthfully, she never left the room. when she sat down, i saw that her belly extended a little past her knees. she continued to eat until it was time for bed. kyle told me that her pants looked too tight, so i went over to check it out. she looked completely bloated, even her double chin looked bigger than usual,...

yesterday, we went to a pretty fancy resteraunt, we like to go out to eat alot, and my daughter ate a humongous amount of food. she would not touch the salad, but drank two bowls of soup, and had the whole plate of cheesy fries, which was our appetizer. again, she had to wear one of my belts, too keep her shirt on over her stomach. next, she refilled her soda four times, and ordered a hot dog and hamburger duo, her favorites. after wolfing the meal down, she ordered another of the same dish. she was about to order one more, when i heard her groaning, and rubbing her belly. i went over to help her, and found that her stomach was being squeezed by the belt. i put it on the highest notch for her, and she proceded to eat the third plate of food. by then, it was time for dessert, she has a very large appetite, so we let her get the mini cake for herself, plus a chocolate milkshake. she then...

thank you, taylor, for that caring remark. when i typed that, i was implying that she be healthy, since healthy is better when you are thinner. i wouldn't mind if she were 500 pounds, but it is hurting her self esteem, and truthfully, i do feel embarrassed. not of her, of myself. i let her become the size she is now, and people like to make fun, especially if they are from a thin family. also, i want her to be thin because i want her dreams of a model to come true. but she is happy when she eats, so i will let her eat. i just hope somehow she can be healthier, and have a slimmer appearence.

I tried to talk to my daughter, Sammie. i told her that she needs to realize she is obese, and is setting unrealistic goals for herself, such as to be a swimsuit model like her brother has done once. she asked me why i pick on her because she isn't fat. i think she knows she is, but is embarrassed. we recently went to a dinner party, and a relative we haven't seen in a while thought she was the older sister. when we told her no, she patted sammie's large belly, and told her all the weight is unhealthy for her to have. she joked, and said she took her family's stomachs on herself. i can't really blame my relative, sammie wore a very tight button down shirt, and a skimpy skirt with one of my belts on the highest notch. the buttons were stretched over her, and her belly bulged over the top and bottom of the belt. what's worse is she ate two double hamburgers, and a giant slice of cake....
