[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 686376, member: 4152"] This has been an ongoing issue with our Difficult Child. As a teen we sent her to weight loss camp for two summers. Unless she is forced to do so, she doesn't even attempt to eat properly. She drinks huge sweet juices in a monster can, giant regular soda pop from the fast food joints, cheeseburgers and large fries, etc. if you suggest she get water and occasional diet soda she gives you a speech about how bad diet soda is. She won't consider getting a burger without the cheese. When she was in the house, we reduced the amount of sweets and non healthy items we kept in the house. The ones we did have, we kept in a lock box. We let her have a small portion most days. She frequently tried to break the box. Now she is huge and wants us to pay for lap band and a bust reduction. I find it frustrating. It's a little easier to cope with this when one sees some efforts being made.She has ZERO cause and effect reasoning. So, she is getting extraordinarily heavy and I'm a bit concerned it won't stop. [/QUOTE]
