[quote=Anonymous]DS, 17, has gained over 30 lbs in the past year. The main reason behind the weight gain ( besides eating more calories than he’s burning, obviously) is that he isn’t playing sports nearly as much as he did in years prior. He realized that he isn’t playing at a level that’ll get him recruited for college and has focused on other, non athletic extra curricular activities . He’s also taking on a very rigorous course load at school, so a lot of his time is spent sitting at a desk. I am worried about the health ramifications as diabetes runs on both sides of our family. Is there a tactful way to approach this topic with him? TIA [/quote]
