[quote=Anonymous]My DD is starting to gain weight.

It's a big issue for me. I'm overweight and gave been struggling to lose it. So I've focused on healthy habits for - I cook fresh, healthy meals and have family dinners every day. I allow her a snack once or twice a say. I buy loads of fruit and veggies. I pack healthy school lunches.

Despite all that she still developed a taste for carbs and sugar and not vegetables. Loves anything m with bread and cheese and sweets.  If we're out with friends and they order pizza, she chugs down half of a medium pizza. If we're in a Mexican restaurant she fills up on chips and caso.  At school she would buy herself ice cream or snack bars.

So my efforts to develop healthy are down the toilet.

I can't control what she eats outside the house and it seems she gets a lot of junk everywhere she goes. Friends will offer pizza and ice cream, camp teacher rewards then with a bag of candy, grandma will treat her to cookies, DH just bought her two containers of ice cream as a treat.

I don't know what to do. :cry: [/quote]
