[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP. An average day would be: Breakfast: smoothie (fruit, yogurt, milk, no added sugar), eggs, or overnight oats with peanut butter and half teaspoon of maple syrup Lunch: whole wheat pasta with mushrooms, garlic, olive oil, and Parmesan or fish with a side of vegetables Dinner: Tuscan bean soup with a sprinkle of Parmesan or homemade chili with guac and a sprinkle of cheddar Snacks are almost always fruit or vegetables. [/quote] Change her diet. Go heavier on protein and fat. A lot more fresh veggies that she can munch on and that take up space in her tummy. Work with her genetics. Do it gradually, small changes a little bit at a time so she does not become self conscious or anxious about weight. I have a similar aged DD but opposite problem, she has very high metabolism and we have to make conscious effort to ensure she is eating calorie dense foods.[/quote]
