[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was anorexic. Anorexia is not always about wanting to lose weight. A lot of times with preteens and teens, it's about control. It's a major thing they can control themselves. I would back off of trying to force her to eat or bringing it up. [/quote] That’s what I’ve been doing, but now I’m second guessing that. Thanks everyone for being kind and for the practical suggestions. I will log her intake on the sly for a few days to see if it’s possible that she’s making up the calories somehow, I’ll read up a bit more, and I’ll call the pediatrician. [/quote] Good job Mama Bear/Papa Bear! You've got this! She's your baby and you know what is normal for her. Stay aware. Don't let up. If it is anorexia, early weeks count so much. The earlier and younger you can intervene the better your chances of success.[/quote]
