I feel as though her recent weight gain has made her undeserving of her hockey sticks of whicxh i bough her after she succeeded at the Jenny Craig bread and water diet.
ALSO she wets the bed frequently.

You're kidding, right? First of all, if your daughter is young enough to wet the bed, she shouldn't be on a diet. Second, if she's older and still wets the bed, she may have an infection and should be taken to see a doctor, soon. And third, Jenny Craig doesn't work. Jenny Craig sells food that''s chemically enhanced and treated to make people lose weight, but as soon as they get off the food, they gain all the weight back.
Answering your question, no, you should not sell her hockey sticks on ebay, you should get therapy for yourself. She's your daughter for goodness sake, and no matter what she looks like you should LOVE her.

For one, I think you may be the problem why she's gaining the weight and wetting the bed. There is no excuse for a father (regardless if your identity is un-disclosed) should be on line speaking about his daughter in such a negative manner.
Second, instead of selling her hockey sticks as punishment for the weight gain, why not trying to enroll her into a Jr hockey league to aid her in losing the weight and keeping it off. Get her involved in a sport that she will feel confident and comfortable playing, and encourage her to stick with it. Be that support she needs from a father (who should love and nurture his daughter) and boost her confidence to help her lose the weight.
Also, you might want to take her to the doctor and make sure that there isn't something wrong with her internally that's keeping her from losing the weight. People kill me how they think weight gain is contributed only to what people eat. There are a number of factors that contribute to obesity that can be controlled through the proper medical care.
And how dare you keep her on a diet of only bread and water. Don't you realize that when you deprive a body of food (or a lack of nutrients) the body will hold onto what ever fat it has stored as a defense against starvation. If she's hungry and don't eat lean meats, fruits, and veggies it will take what ever it can get and store it until it's burned off through a good work out. So get her active don't starve her!!
And you might want to look into talking to a shrink to see why you would be willing to torment your daughter over her weight. What's the matter, you never lived up to pop's expectations of what you should become, so you take it out on her? It sounds like you contribute to her problem with your way of thinking. Encourage, not discourage! Nerd...

Okay, I think for a moment you should re-read what you just wrote. B/c your daughter is "fat" you want to take away her hockey sticks? I think instead of taking them away you should encourage her to use them! Diets like Jenny Craig and Nutrisystem are easy fixes to an underlying problem. Try getting her involved in athletics or an exercise program at the Y. Encourage her as much as possible rather than discouraging and punishing.

Is this a serious question? If so the answer is NO! You should encourage her to use them and work out! Bread and water diet? That hardly sounds safe or healthy! Instead encourage a healthy, WELL ROUNDED, diet and also encourage her to work out... playing hockey is a great example! Selling her hockey sticks would only increase her "weight gain" because she would have less physical activity.
And what does bed wetting have to do with it?

first how old is she, maby the age has something to do with the wetting the bed??
second, if you are worried about her being "fat" use the hockey stick to your advantage and get her to play some roller hockey
third the hockey stick was a gift for reaching a goal and therefor means alot more to someone than like a gift on christmas or a birthday and therefor should not be taken away unless the goal that was done gets undone (sits for days on the couch eating potato chips is a good example of undone)

Her recent weight gain might have to do with your attitude towards her; have you thought of that?. I don't mean to offend you but I'm being honest with my answer. Think of it; if you take away the hockey sticks, your daughter will have less exercise. And wetting the bed frequently can be helped too. ( I had this problem too when I was a kid) doctors now understand it better than many years ago. Please do not jeopardize your daughter's health with punishment about gaining weight. I would suggest that you be tolerant and understanding about her problem rather than punish her!

Your no help
Hello no one should be on an bread and water diet no wonder it didn't work
Crash diets are not the answer
Here is a health diet that works and also build immune system
If you love her and want her to succeed you don't take things away,
you stand behind her, help her, love her don't be so judgemental.
Loosing weight is not easy. And knowing something will be taken away or people constanly judging you is awful.
How would you like your boss looking down your throat and deducting $$ every time you made a mistake or a step backwards?????
Diets are not cheap and getting good health is essential
Here is a diet it is too long to post it does work

give her more insentatives, weight problems stem from bigger issues. she needs support, not any negative. Also those hockey sticks keep her excersizing. right. think about it, why do you want her to lose weight because you are embarrased or her health. If it her health then encourage her to use thos sticks. And she msy need some counceling if she is overeating and wetting the bed, but go easy- that may be the very thing that causes these things. remember positive reinforcement.

So let me get this straight - you think your daughter gained weight to spite you? You can't be serious. If she's old enough to be doing Jenny Craig and still wets the bed, then she probably has emotional problems and needs counseling. This doesn't surprise me, considering the unsympathetic tone of your question.

Take a step back and think this over rationally like a human being. What kind of message are you sending to your daughter if you sell the hockey sticks?
