[quote=Anonymous]I got chubby around 10 (death of my beloved grandparent) and then it didn't stop until I was 26, when I finally took control of it. I had a MISERABLE teenage/high school set of years and the psychological scars are still something I work through at 50 (when some weight is creeping back on and I have to retake control). My pediatrician just shrugged and said "he'll grow out of it" while I sat, age twelve, balling in his office with my mother, begging for help. Poor thing, she was married to a fat man and couldn't see the harm it was causing me to be on the same path. I would have loved some guidance, some encouragement, some help, even while judgment and condemnation would also not have worked. Surely there's a middle ground. [/quote]
