[quote=Anonymous]PP -- totally agree about picking battles (OP here). I have a history of morbid obesity (lost 150 pounds when I was 22 years old and have kept it off 21+ years), and my daughters - although healthy and not obese -- are beginning to border on overweight. I try to not be uptight about it by restricting too much, but I've tried not to introduce candy/gum or other sweet treats until they asked and/or noticed their friends having it. Gum is one of the (few) things they've never asked for. I just try to be careful about encouraging sweets and/or chewing for relief. But if it would really help her, I'm willing to try it. [/quote]
