Answer #1

buy only healthy foods. do not buy junk food! that way she will be eating healthier and better. also, sign her up for a sport at school or rec league. just get her involved with physical activities and make her eat healthy. ~~hope I helped~~

Answer #2

If she’s eating her meals under your roof - try putting more fruit and veg. into her meals - it seems an old, tired trick but it worked for my 13yearold brother. Any food like them which contains a lot of water, helps people get less hungry for longer. Also eating more high fibre foods will help clean out the digestive system. If she seems hungry -all- the time however, leading to excessive consumpion of food, maybe it’s worth checking with the doctors/hospital that she’s not suffering from hormonal imbalances.
