Dd (14) just announced she will only be taking 30p to school a day?!

This is enough to buy a piece of fruit and says she will be taking a drink as well. I know last term she wasn't eating at school hit would come home and eat dinner and a lot of junk. She lost 4 pounds in a week. Then we went away an she ate every meal time and she has been eating at scho as well and she has now gained any weight she lost. I will admit she's very overweight and this affects her but she's happy and relatively healthy besides not being good at sports.
So now I'm scared this will develop into the eating disorder she almost had last term. What can I do?! Besides forcing money into her purse.

The thing is, even if she took more money to school, you won't know if she is eating more will you ??

My dd is on the tip of being diagnosed with an ED, and I can see from her food account that she buys food, but as her mental health team have said, how do I know she's eaten it.

For now i'd not say or do too much about her only taking 30p. Just concentrate more on what she is eating at home. Keep a food diary, and discretely make a note of what she is eating. Also look out for her making trips to the bathroom soon after eating, just incase she is making herself sick.

She has a food diary on her ph

Oops
Phone. She has taken in 601 calories today and burnt 454, leaving 147 in the "bank" that's through walking at school alone.

Could she be bullied (demanded to give money) at school?

I wish it was that simple. Alas no it is all about food.
