Is it too late to help my morbidly obese daughter?
My daughter is 15 years old but has recently climbed up to over 400 pounds. She's seen multiple professionals but continues to gain weight. Is it too late?

It's not too late.
She can change her eating habits and thus change her metabolism.
Ask a doctor though, just how little she can eat at this stage.
One full plate at meal time sounds like enough to where she won't starve. If she wants seconds, then you have dish out some tough love and tell her no.
Check with a doctor first, before you deny her any food.
