[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In another forum, there’s a thread about an overweight adult man who says he never learned basic nutrition in health class or at home. Does she know what carbs are? Sugar? Protein? Ten isn’t too young to educate her. Not saying it will flip a switch, but it might help. [/quote] This is where we are now too. Nothing else seemed to work except discussing portion sizes and “fun food” vs “fuel food”. I hunk it’s finally starting to click for our 12 year old. The obsession was real. We now exercise as a family and make healthy meals together. We try not to eat out often but if we happen to more than once a week, we guide her into making better decisions. She could also throw down half a large pizza or more.[/quote]
