Hi guys this is my 1st post. My daughter Anna is very very obease. About 450 pounds. She is 5 foot 9 and can barly move. When ever I try to talkt to her about it she trys to run away. I say trys becasues she cant run so its more of a flop off the couch onto the floor. Another thing is that she is too big to drive a car so she cant get her drivers licence. We home school here becasue she cant walkt around the school. I dont know what to do anymore. She hasnet movced more than about 50 feet this week. Im not kiddnin either! a trip to the frige and thats about it. My wife is also around here weight but is very tall and can get around. Somebody help me before i crack............i need to go i here here calling me for some chips...........HELP PLEASE!!

I really do not understand why people replied telling you to let you daughter keep eating. No offense, but that is the last thing she needs at 450 lbs. No young woman should weigh 230 lbs, let alone 450. Since she is unable to move, I would consider surgery. Her extra 300 lbs are quite a burden. I can't even lift 300 lbs.

I believe the best move is to take her to a bariatric clinic for an evaluation. However, before they do gastric bypass surgery or the lap-band she will have to begin some sort of small exercise routine and go on a high protein diet. She sounds very angry too...perhaps she can visit a psychiatrist/psychologist...the weight maybe an outward expression of her depression i.e. pushing people farther and father away so she doesn't have to work on what's really causing her all the pain.
