My daughter is turning 10 in a few weeks and she's a little too fat. My wife and I are big as well, but for a 9-year old to weigh around 275 pounds isn't right.

No offence, but I so happy I read about you. It's just that I wrote about my morbidally obese eleven year old daughter, who weighs 213, and I thought no one else was her size. Thank goodness your on the same scale as me. Listen, we have to lower our childrens weight right away. They haven't even entered puberty yet. I talked to my docter and he said that at my dauter's rate of weight gain, by the end of peuberty, my daughter cound be in a wheel chair, or might have to have surgery. So your daughter is in deep trouble. Don't worry about hurting her feelings, worry about saving her life. My daughter does not have a dicease but is a huge eating fanatic. And I if I can help my child, you can help yours.

No offense but she is a little overweight. Just try to put her on a diet without hurting her feelings. Don't make it ovbious (or howeever you spell it) that you think she is oveweight. By the way i am 217 and 11 years old.

Hello, my heart goes out to you all. I have a daughter that is over weight too, but she has lost some pounds and she is still working hard to lose more. For one i have made this a family thing for her, i am eating right too along with exercising with her. I have cut out going to fast foods, eating fried foods and alot of fat period, NO SODAS. She and i eat more bake foods and i make sure that we eat dinner before 7p.m. everyday now. I must say this my daughter has a sleeping disorder and she has to sleep with a machine called a cpap to help her to breath right at night, god knows this is no happy feeling at all. God knows i am working hard to help her and she is doing great. If you would like to know some of the things i am doing to help her please feel free to email me MZ_HONEY29@YAHOO.COM. THANKS AND TAKE CARE AND I WISH YOU THE BEST OF LUCK WITH HELPING YOUR CHILD.
