hi, my daughter is about 10 pounds overweight and she looks more, she is 5'3, 140 lbs, 34-34 inch stomache. i dont understand because she eats healthy and is very active. during the school year she has over 10 hours of sports and over the summer she is at camp every day. i cant figure out howcome she cant loosse weight. we went to a nutritionalist and she said that she was eating all the right things and we even changed our diet alittle. if anyone could help post or email me at gymnast102290@aol.comthanks alot

Some of us retain weight easily, others lose weight easily. Perhaps your daughter, like mine, is in the 1st group. Encourage a little extra exercise. Our Dr. recommended 30 min. per day strenuous exercise. We found, 10 min. at a time are easier than 30 min. nonstop.
