[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was your dd and shamed for it by my ped, put on a diet...Nothing worked and I started eating more rather than less, in secret. Turns out I was just full-grown at 12yo and 5'2 and 125, making me overweight according to child BMI. At the same weight once in my 20s I looked like a regular adult, normal, not overweight. I never shed my poor self-esteem over it.[/quote] OP’s daughter is 5’4” 162. That is also overweight for an adult. But she is 12. Assuming OP already is providing cooked meals and lots of heathy options, “intuitive” eating isn’t working. She has made herself obese by intuitive eating and needs some more guidance and intervention. But chances are nothing will help until 1) she actually wants to lose weight 2) is old enough or large enough for meds [/quote]
