Thank you all again. I must say I had not thought about the gaining weight in preparation for puberty. All of my other children are older and boys and did not experience this. Again for those of you that keep harping on my poor parenting skills, we actually don't watch television and she doesn't sit on an ipod or video…

Thank you for the responses. I should make note that we do eat rather healthy and snacks have been limited in variety and had a set time since well before she, as my youngest was born.

Wooooooow to the word "Detox" trolls. None of you actually have a problem with the plan her mag outlined... Just eating cleaner, watching calories and exercising.

Drink lots of water. Post pone your dinner to after 6pm. Simply don't buy snacks that are not good for you. If its not in your house, you can't eat it.
