[quote=Anonymous]I tell my girls to listen to their bodies. Eat when they are hungry, stop eating when they are full. Eat a good balance of protein and carbs to stabilize blood sugar. Not too much added sugar, but it's fine to have a treat. I was bulimic as a teen thanks to terrible messages from my mom (e.g., "You're going to eat ALL THAT?!?" "You're STILL hungry?"). I have had to actively resist disordered messages from my female relatives, including my sister in law telling one of my daughters that she would be "big" if she kept eating the way she does. (DD is a competitive athlete.) There are so many potential pitfalls here. Please tread carefully.[/quote]
