She’s 9.5 and is 142 lbs. We are putting her on a health kick. She has poor impulse control.

    So you are logging everything for her on the app? Is that what you are saying? Is her doctor involved in this?

    This is not meant for people under 18.

    Yes please make sure her doctor knows and advises on proper nutrition goals for her age. This app is designed for adults with adult nutrition needs in mind.

    MFP won't provide accurate caloric goals, for anyone under 18 years old; therefore it's necessary to take your Daughter to a Registered Dietitian {not a Nutritionist, since they don't receive; enough education}!

    However, assuming she's doing all that, this is still a great way to keep track of what she's eating and how much.
