[quote=Anonymous]Some kids are compulsive overeaters from a very young age. I was. Why? I do not know. My grandparents would feed me a second breakfast, my mother hid sweets and was obese herself. I was overweight starting around 3 or 4 judging from photos but didn't know there was anything amiss until kindergarten where kids bullied me. Mother and I dieted together from my age 7 or 8 on. Rice diet, egg diet, diet doctor pills. I yo yoed. I was an 88 pound first grader, a 4 ft Inch 145 pound 4th grader. 250 plus in high school. It's in the mind and spirit. Having healthy food around won't fix it. Guilt and restrictions won't fix it. I am in remission now and have been on and off. Mostly on, for 40 years. I don't know what will work for a kid. [/quote]
