Nice to meet you.

Peace.

anonymous – Thanks – I hear you and yes it is more complex and far deeper than what I said – I know that. I have lived it myself with yo yo weight issues. I knew it was a quick fix for a purpose but it was an opportunity to educate and get something started – it was a ‘do it don’t talk about it thing’. Cause she is one who will talk and not do. Enuff said.

Thanks Tami and others who have offered support and encouragement – I have ‘got over’ some other things with her and am trying to move on – I am in Craigs challenge – see you there!

Craig n Jens blog has a nice ring to it……need a bit of yin to go with the yan Craig? LOL

Sorry Nik…Most of what I write is at my own blog.

I’m hearin’ you..
And I agree.

My daughter was always an average size until she hit puberty. Then overnight she put on loads of weight. Her diet hadn’t changed. We eat healthy though we have treats occassionally. She exercised. In that year she represented her school playing squash and swimming, so there was a fair amount of training involved. We walked together alot. Still the weight wouldn’t budge. What more could I do, I was frightened to put too much pressure on her. Its hard enough going through puberty without adding weight issues to the mix.

I think the weight was due to hormonal changes, and it took a long time to shake that weight.
Now at 21 she has a lovely figure though she would say she wants to lose 5kgs….like every other female I know! She knows about eating healthy and she goes to a gym on a regular basis.

Unfortunately she carries alot of hang ups about her weight which comes directly from her “fat” stage.

I guess I’m just saying, don’t be quick to judge EVERY parent, its not always black & white.

Wise words Grasshopper.
