[QUOTE="KTMom91, post: 741066, member: 4040"] I'm short and about 150 pounds overweight. I know I'm fat, and I'm also sick and tired of being sick and tired. Medication side effects and fibromyalgia have left me the perfect storm of stubborn weight and constant pain. What does your daughter want to do? Would she be embarrassed at a wedding looking like an upholstered ox? Or is she really OK with her size? Personally, I'd get out of that discussion and let the chips (no pun intended) fall on her. You already know you can't make her want to get healthy, and you'll most likely receive less than polite comments if you try to be kind. Maybe just lay it out there? Tell her flat out that she's fat and unhealthy, and if she cares about looking good at this wedding, she's got a lot of work ahead of her. Then put on the hard hat to shield yourself from the fallout. If she's not interested in getting healthy at this time, Catherine's carries some very nice formal wear up to a 5X. [/QUOTE]
