[quote=Anonymous]If you’re eating to the point where you’re 300+ lbs, it’s not because you don’t know about vegetables or portion sizes. It’s because you’ve got some emotional hole to fill. OP’s daughter clearly already has some emotional issues centered around food. She already knows candy is “bad” and “fruit” is good. Her mom already chides her about portions. So what else is left - lock up the food? If OP treats this like a nutritional issue, she might end up with a skinny daughter, but I’m pretty sure that daughter is going to have bigger issues or other ways of numbing herself and attempting to feel good.[/quote]
