From Angela, child's age 15

Hi everyone. My daughter Milly is having weight problems. She is 5'5 and 190 lbs according to the doctor that I took her to last year. She carries almost all her weight in her belly. She always has her hand on it and her back arched back like it is so heavy, like she is pregnate. I told her that I would not buy her any new clothes until she loses weight. I;m guessing she gained because she now wears her pants under her sagging belly with it peeking out under her shirt. I also bought her bikinis because I can't find one pieces to fit around her. I figured that a bikini would give her big belly ennough room. Is that ok? I never really noticed how big she was a couple of months ago, until i went into her room at night to turn of her light that she accidently left on, her shirt had rolled up in her sleep and the covers were off. She was on her side, and all of her belly fat was just hanging there. I can't even hug all the way around my baby girl anymore. She seems to like being big, all her friends are a little chubby too. I'm just afraid that she will miss out on normal things with all this additional weight. At my sisters wedding her father tried dancing with her and even he could not put his arms around her belly. It was sticking out so much that they could barely dance. What should I do?
