[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, you need to have less food in the house. Have lean days where you make sure all the food is eaten before going out to buy more.
Also, it takes a TON of exercise to lose a few pounds.. Remind him that nothing tastes as good as the mile jog it will take to get rid of half of it. 
If that doesn't work then go towards zero tolerance of over eating. I have to curb my son. When I bring groceries home, I simply say that if I so much as catch him eating such and such, he is in big trouble.[b] I simply can't afford to feed him to the extent that he wants to eat.[/b] I only buy organic eggs, meats, and dairy, so it is expensive. He sees the bills. Also we try to grow our own produce. [/quote]

You simply could afford to feed him to the extent that he wants to eat if you didn't ONLY buy organic.

But I guess it's better to be able to brag that your kid only eats organic rather than know that your kid is full and not hungry.

Also, it's the kids like your son that come to my house and pig out.  Instead of eating one cookie after school, he's shoving 3 and 4 in his face.  [/quote]
