[quote=Anonymous]OP: My daughter, 14, is as well. Don't think for a minute that she has not noticed, with all these little girls around here that are super skinny. My DD is a chunky bigish girl about 10-15 lbs over, 75th. She has her sister to compare to every day, if not her classmates. I encourage her to eat healthy, and her friends do too. She says she eats when "unhappy" However, she is not depressed. It takes discipline to resist eating more than you should, and to stay slim in our society, surrounded by delicious food. The doc is not going to say anything until it is too late. Be supportive; it is hard. try losing 15 lbs. She is still growing, so I encourage sports. Not the most athletic girl. Best of luck, support![/quote]
