[quote=Anonymous]DS, who is 9, 90 lbs and 4ft 9.5 in tall, is also considered overweight by BMI measurements. He's always been this way. He doesn't have a big gut, but does have a large frame and larger thighs and butt. His Ped isn't concerned. What about a reward system? You can hang with your friends if you go for a brisk walk with me for 20 mins? You can have one small treat if you jump rope or ride your bike? DS isn't as physically active as I would like but I do encourage it. I do things like trying to make sure whatever I need him to get for me is on a different floor, encourage Xbox Kinect, or having him go and up down the stairs several times for various reasons.[/quote]
