Anybody know much about Weight Watchers?

Since you didn't say how physically active she was, my $0.02 is get her involved in something physical, like swimming, dance, volleyball, softball, basketball, etc. This will (hopefully) do 3 things. Get her to meet new people, potentially making new friends, 2) give her increased self esteem by participating in a sport, and 2) get her moving to help in the weight loss. Let her try several different ones if the first one doesn't seem to be her bag. At 5'7'' she could be a great volleyball or basketball player just waiting to blossom...maybe a longjumper...who knows

Good luck to the both of you, the things that some people have to endure at so young an age amaze me sometimes.

Dance Dance Revolution.

My friend Cricket was 6'3" and 350 pounds.

She bought DDR and is down to 250 with no other adjustments to her lifestyle.

I think part that may work to her favor is that no one else has to see her flailing around trying to keep up, but she can still compete against the computer or other people.
