[quote=Anonymous]5'2 and 140 is not thin but it's not fat either. Do you think she doesn't realize how she looks? She will have the whole world to criticize and judge her, why do you think she needs her mother to do so as well? You should eat healthy. You should exercise. Put down those cupcakes...do you really think she doesn't know that? How do you think pressing it is going to change it? It's not, she is just going to have a complex and get mad at you. If she is not motivated to look like you and your beautiful self, then she's not motivated. It's something that she needs to decide for herself- trust me, she sees herself in the mirror, in pictures, and has a ton of messages telling her she isn't good enough. She doesn't need you adding to that. Kids gain weight, teens gain weight, it's normal. There are a lot of things going on with their bodies. Come back and ask when she's 5'2 and 200 lbs. Then my response will change. [/quote]
