[quote=Anonymous]There was a post on here awhile back that stuck with me about a parent with an overweight pre-pubescent child. And the doctor’s advice that actually worked was serve a fruit and a vegetable at every meal and for snacks, and ensure the child gets 60-90 minutes of medium intensity physical activity every day. Long walks/hikes, stuff like going to the playground or the trampoline park if they are running around the whole time. Not all kids organized sports/activities get them moving around as much as needed. After a few months of following this, the kid started to get into a healthier weight range. [/quote]
