My child needs help! My daughter Kiera is 11 yrs old and she is 146 lbs and about 5'2. And I'm only 32 yrs old and 155lbs and 5'5!!! I don't know what to do. And I think she got an eating disorder when she went to my sisters home in Nevada. When she went one summer she came back as big as me! I was shocked! From then on she has been like that up till this day!
Reply from Sara, Child's Age 15 - 05/08/04 - IP#: 205.188.116.xxx My daughter weent on a diet with me once. We didn't eat any junk food, no snacks, just veggies and fruits and dairy products. We played sports and just had a great time outdoors, instead of in doors, the most greatest thing was she didn't know about the diet, so after 2 weeks of spending time outside and eating less, i weighed myself and i was 10 pounds lighter, so i made weigh herself, she was 7 pounds lighter. The thing is, your kids will eat anything, you give them, so start making them eat healthier, now shes 15 and she is looking for cute guys, so she is working out, it works, and good luck.
Reply from Maria, Child's Age 15 - 05/08/04 - IP#: 205.188.116.xxx your daughter is 11 years old, she shpuld weigh between 99-120 pounds at that height. Get her to a aerobics instructor who could help her. If she feels fat and needs to talk about it, talk to her and be there for her, but the worst thing to say is "Your fat hunny". It only makes her self conscience go down. Also, spend time with her outside, sign her up for an active sport, cook less fatning foods, if shes going on a diet your family should eat what shes going to be eating for some weeks, to comfort her and show her were here for you sweetie.
