[quote=Anonymous]All of the advice I read regarding kids and weight loss says to emphasize increasing physical activity instead of diet, but in my own experience, exercise does nothing to help me lose weight, it's all diet. Is it really different for kids? My suspicion is that doctors are more likely to emphasize exercise, because they're afraid that if the parents emphasize diet and weight loss too much the kids could develop an eating disorder. I understand this fear, but I can't help thinking that simply adding exercise and not doing much to cut down on calories isn't enough to help a kid lose weight. [/quote]
