[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most teens seem thin so if your child is even a slightly overweight, she may be the odd one out.

My kids all have no fat and they eat tons of junk. [/quote]

My DD finds it completely unfair that her friends' parents let them eat all the junk food they want and are thin.  She's not thin and we definitely limit junk food (basically, one dessert a day, which is still a lot.)  The responses to this post will be evenly split with parents saying an overweight kid shouldn't get a dessert a day... and parents saying that by restricting food we are headed toward an eating disorder.  It's a struggle EVERY DAY.[/quote]

My daughter is very skinny but loves to eat. She has the eating habits of an overweight child but she is stick skinny. She eats dessert everyday. She loves ice cream, chips, cookies and chocolate. I don’t know how she is underweight. At he last check up, she was 18th percentile in weight.[/quote]

We're not all equal when it comes to weight gain. That's why Ozempic is such a miracle. It evens out the playing field.[/quote]

It really doesn’t. Some of us don’t have to give ourselves expensive injections.[/quote]

And some of us do and now we look skinny like you. Oh well.[/quote]

But with saggy skin and drooping faces. We know ozempic when we see it [/quote]
