[quote=Anonymous]OP here and thanks.  I should clarify that DS does eat breakfast and we provide a healthy lunch, but he sometimes rushes through it.  He is a fast eater and we are always suggesting that he slow down and digest his food because then he'll know if he is full.  DS is not into sports (and unfortunately the more overweight he gets, I think the less interested he is because he falls behind), but he will take evening walks with us and we try to get 30 minutes in.  I should mention that he also started taking an anxiety medicine that can cause weight gain, although overeating has always been an issue for him.  I just hate the thought of him being teased over his weight or not participating in activities because of it (summer is around the corner and he already mentioned being shirtless at the pool).  I also know that this sometimes resolves on its own and that I have cousins and adult friends who were very overweight in their tween and teen years, but eventually decided for themselves to do something about it.  Sometimes it required them to become more interested in their appearance (or in girls for that matter) to find the motivation to make the change.  [/quote]
