[quote=Anonymous]OP here again... WOW. Thank you all so very much for your thoughtful and helpful replies. I have tried a few of the strategies mentioned (like giving her baby carrots and yogurt ranch dip before dinner). And while I try not to do food rewards, my huband does. Once I caught him sneaking french fries up to her room and he said, I just want to make her happy...which I can understand. But obviously not a good idea. We are doing family therapy and she has a therapeutic mentor (who, alas, is also very overweight, but they have gone to the gym together a few times, which is great). Love the idea of finding a buddy to walk with..will have to brainstorm on that one. She's in an ED classroom with only one other girl, which is a bummer, and she refuses to mainstream to any classes, so it's hard for her to make friends. That info on the rEEG is fascinating and I will definitely check it out. [/quote]
