Adult daughter is fat

[Anonymous]

GLP is not ideal for anyone much less a young woman!

How FAT is she? 100 pounds over? 15?
How much do YOU weigh, OP?

Or ask if she’s visiting the doctor recently. I was thinking GLP 1 could be an option but I don’t want to push it.

This sounds like she is a farm animal to be sold! Is this a culture that does arranged marriage?

Do not say one word about her weight.
Do not offer to buy "healthy" food.
Do not offer to pay for a gym or exercise class.
Do not ask about doctor visits.
Do not ask about what she is eating.
Do not ask about her fitness efforts.
Do not say anything or give any side-eye about what she eats or drinks.

She is an adult, and all of the above is none of your business.

Just love her and show her that her relationship with you is not weight-dependent.

You are a horrible PIECE OF SHIT, OP. I hope you know that. I hope your daughter tells you that.

OP is a clearly a troll. Ignore.

Does your adult daughter have any mirrors? Does she have an intellectual disability? Is she living under a rock and has never heard of GLP 1s? Yes, no, no?

Then butt out. She knows she is overweight. It’s crazy you are all in her business acting like she is unaware of being overweight and the options out there.

People who are fat know they are fat.

Was this change sudden or gradual? If her weight changed drastically in a short amount of time she could have a medical issue that requires treatment.

If the weight gain was more sudden, she may be on a new birth control, like Depo Provera. Back in the 90s, my friends who chose this gained around 15-20 lbs almost overnight, and all had the same puffy appearance.

Ask her about her job. People at work are probably bringing in treats all the time, or she is exhausted and overwhelmed and just comes home and noshes on whatever. Do NOT mention her weight to her. Just be a good listener.

She is an adult who presumably has mirrors and clothing and possibly a scale that can indicate changes in body composition. Her weight and her medical issues are none of her parents' business unless she herself chooses to discuss it with them. So even if the change was sudden and drastic, not one word should be said.

Completely agree. And a really shitty one at that.
