[quote=Anonymous]Try serving healthy soup before each meal or making sure she drinks a glass of water within the half hour before dinner. Make her use a spoon and manners sure, but stop shaming her about food. If you’re worried about her eating too fast enroll her in some etiquette lessons but don’t make it about food. Just get rid of the goldfish and pizza and cheeseburgers and 3-4 times per week desserts and other processed crap you offer her on a regular basis and let her eat what she wants. You have control over what is available, that’s where it ends. Your daughter is not obese, stop treating her as such before you end up back here in.5 years talking about your child with an eating disorder. [/quote]
