[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is the OP again, in my original post I said: “Please recommend to me some kind of professional that we can go to for counseling.” Obviously this is a public comment board and people can respond with whatever they want, and maybe I didn’t phrase my initial post well enough. But what I really was hoping for is the name of some sort of counseling center, weight expert, something like that.

Hasn’t anyone on this board disagreed with a spouse about how to handle weight issues in a teenager and gone to see an objective expert? Isn’t there some kind of doctor/dietitian/psychologist who can offer science-based strategies?[/quote]

I think it will be interesting to see if you get any specific responses. The reality is that so much we know about obesity and dieting is rapidly changing. Without a specific recommendation, I would try to see if you can find a counselor or nutritionist who believes in “health at any size”. I think they are the most likely to have the kind of guidance you are looking for. Your challenge will be that your husband may balk if he knows this is their perspective.[/quote]
