My DD has recently started saying she is fat, frequently mentioning her weight, and reading the calorie content of different foods. I haven't noticed any other troubling symptoms (she eats normally), but is it too early to start worrying about a possible eating disorder? She loves her food, and is an early developer - I have done my best to reassure her that as she is tall for her age she can expect to weigh more than other kids in her class (some of whom are midgets). If being honest I would say she is slightly podgy, but it is only puppy fat. She's on the 75th centile for height, and just below it for weight, so I am not worried about her actual size, just her attitude towards it. We don't have any scales in the house, and I try so hard not to discuss other people's body shapes! Is anyone else in a similar situation? How can I get her to stop worrying about her figure?
