When you have 1 story after another about a woman weighing 135, but just lost weight 30lbs. Self-esteem play's into it a lot. Diet's aren't good for anyone, especially a growing teenager, who may have lot's of hormones. I think you should have a talk with her and see where all this is coming from, get her point of view's of what she think a diet is..and let her know about how you cook them healthy food, and that healthy eating is a way to go....Also, get her to show you picture's of what she think's an acceptable body image is..Body image is key. SHow her what you feel, and think a healthy body image is... It doen't have to be a star... :
Great advise, I think her and I are going to go shopping tonight and out for a nice dinner for some serious girl talk...
