[quote=Anonymous]I also cut chunky in 4th grade and was made fun of a bit. I ate too much junk - lots lots lots of after school snacks and sugary drinks and double portions at dinner. I did not play any sports and didn't really exercise. First, talk to doctor about any undetected issues. Don't buy junk regularly; allow it, but in single serve portions and sparingly. Serve reasonable portions in general. Don't restrict to the point of deprivation or talk about it too much. Fill up on lower calorie foods if she's already eaten or about to eat - veggies, fruit, unbuttered popcorn, sparkling water. Family walks, help her find an individual exercise she can like (girls this age are often too self conscious to play team sports with there skinny friends). [/quote]
