[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ve got 6 kids. My most active, muscular child that is always busy, moving and does the most amount of sports is my “heavy child”. 8 and weighs 70 lbs. We received nutritional counseling at the last check up. We all eat fairly healthy, occasional desserts and junk food. Just crazy that one child is heavier while the rest are stick thin. So, sometimes it truly is just genetics. But, I do see a lot of very overweight children and it breaks my heart. [/quote] Im struggling to understand how an 8 year old at 70 lbs could be fat. Especially one who is active. That's about 80%, so 1 out of 5 kids weigh more. I have a 9 year old who weighs about 80 lbs and is very skinny (but lots of muscle and super tall).[/quote]
