[quote=Anonymous]OP, I think a couple of things should happen. Just IMO. I get why you're concerned and those posters who claim you're wrong for being concerned around just fooling themselves. 1. Mandate some sort of physical exercise year round in a structured setting. This has nothing to do with weight loss and everything to do with mental health. It's important for kids and for adults to always get some form of exercise for reasons completely unrelated to weight. 2. See if you can (carefully) get her tested for PCOS or similar just to rule them out. 3. Do get some therapy. This isn't snarky. You will have to work on acceptance and also how to better support your DD. It's tough and she' going to need support and understanding. Ultimately, we can't make people be different than who they are even if we know who they are is a tough road.[/quote]
