[quote=Anonymous]Hi - I was very overweight at that age and my mom took me to weight watchers meetings. They used to have special classes for teens, too -- not sure if they still have those. It might help, and it's something you could do with her. Maybe the allowance should be tied to attending those meetings and weight loss instead of attending school for awhile. Can she take a packed lunch instead of buying food at school? She might still get the snacks, but at least she'd have something healthy and planned with her. She is finding solace in food, I get that. It's a hard place to be. [/quote]
