[quote=Anonymous]I'm always curious about why people feel the need to "say something" about someone else being overweight. Do you think your DD is not aware that she is overweight? Most people who are obese are painfully aware and ashamed of it, which tends to perpetuate the cycle. Telling her that you are concerned about her weight is almost guaranteed to backfire and damage your relationship. I would just try to hint to her, gently, that you sense that she is stressed and unhappy and that you are there for her if she needs someone. Don't even bring up the weight. The weight is a symptom.[/quote]
