Okay, first of all she is old enough to know that she is overweight, I think you should tell her this, but definently do not make her feel bad about it, she is too young for that.
She is also, I think too young for exercise, maybe let her go to swimming, or a dance class, balet, tennis, what she likes to do, that involves some sort of movement, or exercise.
My mother buys 100 calorie packs, for my 7 year old sister, and 4 year old sister, they are very good, and only 100 calories. They have them in chips ahoy,, oreo, cheese nips, duritos, etc...
Also maybe instead of buying milk, buy organic, or low fat milk.
And instead of buying sugary cereals, like cocoa puffs, maybe buy cheerios, or puffins.
Encourage her, find a fruit or vegtable that she likes, maybe try every one with her.
You are a great mother for worrying, and I don't blame you for trying to help her!
Good luck with your daughter!

Well, do an analysis first...
Diet, what do you feed her?
Excercise, what kind of activities does she do?
Thyroid test with a physician and give him the results of the analysis.
Then set a program and be disciplined to do it.
Diet...good foods that taste good in smaller portions, maybe.
consult with your Dr. and research the net.
Excercise, not just running or working out, but things that are fun like playing at the local jungle gym and other recreations she would enjoy (i.e. dance, skiing, swimming, softball etc.).

Please dont do the whole calorie diet thing. it may work but it really deprives you of the things you really need. i tried it and i couldnt do it. the counting got to hard and sorta pointless. so heres a suggestion. the both of you go on nightly walks and just watch what you eat. you'll be better off. if you have the money. La weight loss really works i know shes kind of young but after 5 weeks of doing it I would recomend it for any one.

okay, talk to her doctor. put her on a controlled diet, no more than 1500 calories in a day. get her down to at least 120 and make her exersise, even if it is yoga, pilates, basketball or whatever.... that is very scary and she could be at risk for diabetes..... or heart diseases
