[quote=Anonymous]At 14, I would be honest and say "yes, you are overweight" and let her know you will help anyway you can. Other than that, I do not believe there is much else you can do. You can take her to a nutritionist but at her age she likely knows and understands the basic concepts of nutrition. I was an overweight teen and my parents pretending I wasn't overweight just ended up being like an elephant in the room. It would have been better if they were honest with me. [/quote]
