[quote=Anonymous]I don't think you want to hit your DS with a "diet" on the cusp of adolescence, right when he probably feels kind of uncertain anyway. There are many steps you can take together as a family, however, especially if you seek the help of a physician, RD or wellness coach. Do you talk about healthy eating with your kids? What do you model for them? Do you drink soda or high-calorie drinks from Starbucks yourselves? Do you, as a family, read nutrition labels and plan meals together? What kinds of exercise and activity do you do together as a family?[/quote]
