if she is 13 100 pounds is not entirely that skinny.
I am currnetly 15 and 100 pounds I do not found myself skinny. I am 5ft 7 inches. I was 80 pounds when I was 13 so justt ell her you cant even tell she lost any weight.

Sounds like an eating disorder, or an obsession, with her body, no one thinks diet & exercise is "fun", people to it for better health. Braggers are a bore, if she keeps talking about her smaller size, just say "thats nice", do you have anything more interesting to talk about", if not, be thankful that you only have to put up with her for 2 days. good luck, and try not to let her get on your nerves.

Has she stopped growing? I don't believe that children should worry so much about losing weight if they're still growing and developing. Unless she was obese or had a real weight issue. Did the dr. tell her to diet? If not, she should shut her mouth and/or you have to ignore it- just don't listen to it, change the subject and/or tell her to stop bragging; that you don't appreciate the bragging. HTH

get some diet tips from her, tell her she is doing a good job, and make sure she is not going too far with her dieting. If she's worked really hard, she is probably just proud and wants some praise

compliment her and ask her what she did to lose the weight. this will take the heat off of her trying to make you jealous to think you are envious. She'll be a little confused and downtrodden that the bragging didn't get to you and will have to share dieting info with you so she won't look so obvious. try it, it will certainly work.

Tell her that you enjoy spending time with her and that since she is visiting you in your home it would be nice if she stopped bragging and respected your space and time together by doing things other than refer to her weight loss. I would suggest planning an activity together that would take her mind off of it. If she gets out of hand I would shut her down by insulting her.

if she gets too out of hand i would just tell her to stop talking because everybody can see that she looks better she doesn't have to keep saying it. If that doesn't work then just ignore her, shes only doing it for attention and to get on your nerves.

maybe you can have some guy around
make her jealous of you in another way, like he compliments you and ignores her, or if he hears her talking he can call her a ***** or tell her she is too thin.
tell your parents that you are worried about her that she might have an eating disorder

Complement her on her diet success and continue on .
No need to discuss it further. If she brings it up, simply say you'd rather talk about something else.
Who cares what she weighs ???
