[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why anyone keeps junk food in the house once they have kids is beyond me. The kids will find junk food on their own as they get older. Establish good eating habits from day one. Yes, they always have overweight / obese parents. [/quote] I’m thin and one of my kids is very petite. I’m very active as well. My husband has struggled with weight on/off but is not obese. Our 10 year old DD is definitely overweight. She’s active in sports and dance. The petite one hates physical activity. My overweight DD doesn’t eat different things from the family but she likes to eat. And there are some anxiety issues as well. It’s SO hard to keep a balance between encouraging her to be healthy and not wanting to cause body image issues. And she does have body image issues bc she knows she’s bigger than say her ballet friends. Judgmental jerks like you don’t help. [/quote]
