[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. We do make good choices and exercise as a family. We found out that she was ditching the healthy lunches we packed and was buying fried foods at school. We have shut off her lunch pin so she can’t do that anymore.

I’m not in the dark about her weight. Just think the BMI is BS and most doctors don’t understand nutrition, female hormone systems, and mental health. At least none I’ve met that go beyond lecture and lip service.[/quote]

So you think your doctor is too stupid to understand nutrition and yet this is the person you rely on for medical advice about your child?  If your doctor really is that stupid you need to go to a different doctor but the more likely answer is that your doctor, a trained medical professional, knows more about these issues than you do and you should listen to them.[/quote]

A doctor being able to diagnose strep and prescribe antibiotics is different from a doctor being able to understand a young girl and nutrition.

I assume you haven’t been a woman misdiagnosed by doctors your entire life?

OP, I get what you’re saying.[/quote]
