[quote=Anonymous]This is tough. I would want to make sure both kids are active. 10 might be too young for your daughter to understand food and calorie intake, but she will soon. Since she likes to cook and bake, I would capitalize on that. Have her involved in meal planning, packing lunches, picking out favorite vegetables. Get books from the library or find some good people to follow online. I would also rule out things like thyroid disorders in both kids. You may find talking with a pediatric nutritionist. (a real one - not someone with a certificate from a made up place). [/quote]
