what kind of mother are u?? you dont need to wrry bout ur daughters weight. and she is just fine thats the "perfect" weight for her its just right. there is no "perfect weight". she doesnt need to be more like you she needs to be her own individual just leave her and her weight alone and just be glad that u have a daughter.

By no means is ur daughter fat!! A little weight is healthy, 108 lbs is pretty tiny. Since shes only 15 shes still has baby fat as well. Lastly....Im no Dr. Phil but telling a 15 year old teenage girl to lose weight is a touchy thing with all the pressures nowadays to look like someone off of t.v she might take it too seriously and to an unhealthy extreme

um...first of all, if your her MOTHER and YOU are 5'5 and 98 lbs then maybe you should gain some weight >.< like sorry, not to be mean, but that migth be a little unhealthy. your daughter is DEFINETELY NOT fat. Im 5'5 and i weigh 117 lbs, and im 1 year younger than her. Its the fact that shes 5'7 is why shes 108 lbs. In my eyes, shes perfectly fine. dont bother her, and tell her to lose weight, because she can become anoretic/bulimic.

What kind of mother tells their daughter to loose weight when shes only10lbs heavier. She is at a healthy weight for her age, you should never tell a teenage girl that she needs to loose weight especially when she reall needs to gain a few pounds along with her mother.

....Are you kidding me? Seriously. Tell me you're kidding. 108 is very light for her age. I'm a 14 year old boy and I weigh 115, and I'm pretty skinny. But, really, you told her to lose weight? My gosh, she must be starving! That kindof weight is bordering on anorexic. I'd have a nice big dinner for her tonight.

omg, she needs to gain weight and so do you...you should be at least 120 lbs if not more and she should probably be around 130...its not healthy to be that little...you should be about 100 around 5ft and 5 lbs more than that for every inch after 5ft...thats what i've learned...it also depends on age...the older you are the more you should have on you...but she is way too little and you shouldn't be encouraging your daughter at such a young age to starve herself

At 5'7", one should weigh between 130-140 pounds. 107 is anorexic!!! What type of example are you trying to set for your daughter? You are underweight, and so is she.

I think u are nuts. with all the talk about anorexia,why are u telling she needs to loose weight. If she is happy the way she is ,why not leave her alone. Why does she have to be as thin as you are? Why are u that thin? Who says u are in good shape?

YOU'RE F**KING JOKING.
SHE'S UNDERWEIGHT.
The best weight for anyone 5'7" is anywhere from 130 IBS. to 160 IBS.
YOU BOTH NEED HELP. NOW.
