[quote=Anonymous]30 lbs on a 17 year old is not going to give him diabetes. It sounds like he has a lot going on that is pretty high stress. If he is a junior or senior, is he putting a lot of pressure on himself to get into a good college? I would talk to him about how his stress level and how he is feeling. You can certainly messsge that physical activity is a good way to mana he stress and offer to do some physical activity with him. Playing pickleball or going on a hike with your stressed out kid will be better in a number of ways than pretending that his current situation is a lead up to a life time of chronic illness. [/quote]
