I have posted here several times about my daughter Lisa. She just turned 11 last week. Well, she is still getting bigger. On monday I took her to the doctors office and she is now 4'10 and weight in at 231 pounds. She is so heavy, she has real trouble with walking longer than 5 minutes. The doctor recommended that Lisa should go to a special clinic to loose weight but she said to me she doesn't want to go. She wants to diet with me at home. But I am not sure what to do now.

If your daughter IS stuck in bed due to being overweight, then her only source of food is through you. thus, limiting her to 3 meals a day without snacks should help her.
Remember, you're the mother, buy healthy food, don't give her pocket money to let her buy sweets, if needed have locks fitted to all food storage areas.
You have to be tough to help her in the long run

i would try to diet at home with her, but if after awhile if it doeasnt get any better you should take her to a clinic. i know she may not want to but it'll be better for her in the long run.

Hi Linda! I would really like to talk to you. Can you please give me your email address. I really don't know what to do anymore.
My little girl keeps getting bigger and bigger. For the past 4 weeks she has been eating constantly. She can't even get up from her bed by herself anymore, because she is so heavy.
