I too am worried about my girls.  We have started an exercise program at the 
Y and I had them "set a goal" of what they want.  My 17 y/o wants a dwarf 
hamster and my 14 y/o (who is very thin) wants a bikini.  

We will be "writing up a contract" that states they have to exercise 3 days a 
week for 12 weeks.  If they don't, then the contract is null and void.

I also included that they have to go "with a positive attitude" and not 
complain !!!!!
