Hello everyone, and thanks for all the responses I got last time.
As I said in my previous post, I have an 11 (now 12)-year-old daughter who recently broke 700 pounds. She's basically immobile at this point and struggles with everyday tasks; we've been trying to get her to lose weight so she doesn't develop any serious health issues.
Angel and Hanna have suggested I'm not trying hard enough to help my daughter Amy lose weight. Honestly, that hurt a lot to read. I want my daughter to be happy and healthy, but every time her father and I have tried to change her habits, she simply refuses.
Amy is a very sweet girl, but she gets VERY upset when she doesn't get the food she wants or when we try to get her to stop eating. She starts crying and it breaks my heart to see her like that...
We've tried to explain to her that it's for her own good and we've taken her to the... (view more)

Hello everyone.
I have a very obese daughter called Amy. She needs an electric wheelchair to get around, and her doctor says she may develop serious health problems in the future.
I'm not sure how to feel about that. I know I should get Amy to eat healthy and lose weight, but it's really hard for her. She's used to eating as much as she wants (I admit, that's entirely my fault) and she gets really sad when she doesn't get food.
I don't think she ever spends more than a few seconds at a time without some kind of candy, junk food or sugary drink in her mouth. The poor girl just can't stop eating. And exercise is basically impossible; she can barely waddle to the bathroom even with help.
I have conflicting feelings about this. On one hand, I know I should take the doctor's advice seriously, but I also want my daughter to be happy, and I know she's not happy when she has ... (view more)

Hi everyone. It’s been a little while since I was last on here but I wanted to see how everyone is doing, especially with the holidays coming up. This is my family’s favorite time of the year. I love cooking and baking and always end up making a lot of pies and cookies. Emily and Chloe love to eat all the things I make. We’re all bigger now but it doesn’t stop us from enjoying ourselves. I hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving and a wonderful Christmas.

Hi all,
I took my ds in for a doctor's appointment due to a persistent rash on his neck only to find out it was a sign of serious insulin resistance and that he was borderline diabetic with type 2 diabetes. He is only 11 and I really don't know what to do. I've tried getting him to eat better but all he wants is what his friends eat which is junk food. I've tried explaining that they aren't facing a health issue like he is but he is very resistant.
Please help

Hello everyone. Hope you all had a good summer. It’s been good to see how the boys have been doing, but I’m wondering where the girls’ families are, too. We’re all doing great, here. Emily and Chloe are starting their schoolwork (they’re homeschooled) and are excited about it. How’s everyone else’s girls doing?

Hello. I have a problem with my 12yo boy. He's always been a little stocky but lately we've noticed (and he's told us too) he's accumulated A LOT of fat on his butt and thighs. I know you can't target specific areas for weigh loss so I've told him to try losing overall. He's told me he's embarrassed about having a massive ass.

Anyone have experience with getting pants tailored? My boy is 11 and stores most of his extra weight in his thighs and butt. Wearing men's sizes has never worked because he's average height for his age. We tried a small men's pair of sweatpants and even they were too small whilst also being too long in the legs? Are husky-sizes worth it or should we just skip and buy adult and get them hemmed?

When I sent my daughter off to college, she was 155lbs at 5"2. Still overweight for her height, but she was active and healthy. She comes home once every 3 or so months. I could tell she was putting on weight, I just didn't realise how bad it was. At the beginning of last summer, I overheard her confiding in her older sister that she had gained 45lbs, but she was going to lose it over the summer. She didn't. She gained another 10 or so lbs. I saw her for the first time since Christmas when she came home for her sister's wedding. A few wider family members said they were shocked to see how much she'd gained. She's only 20 and got out out of breath from a few minutes on the dance floor. A few days later, I went into the bathroom straight after her and saw that the scales were displaying a number. I felt guilty because it was clearly private to her, but I had a look. 257lbs. She's an adult and I don't want to push her away or nag her about her health, but she's gained 102lbs since she started college in 2022. I'm worried sick.
