[QUOTE="skeeter, post: 10725, member: 439"] yeah - I was going to say as an answer to the title: get older! I was voted "skinniest" my senior year of high school. I weighed 85lbs then, and only weighed over 100lbs when I was pregnant. Until I hit age 40. Now at age 48 I weigh about 115, which doesn't sound like much, but seems huge to me. But there isn't a darn thing I can do about it - my body seems to hold onto this weight no matter what I do!!!! Anyway, I'd look at the QUALITY of what she is eating vs. QUANTITY. Loading up on chips and soda to get calories is not a good thing (as I'm sure you already know). Try to make sure she's getting the vitamins she needs, and watch the junk food, and I'd then try to help her forget the rest (again, I know, easier said than done). And tell her it's great when you can get away with getting jeans in the "preteen" department - or the boys - because they cost a lot less than juniors! [/QUOTE]
