[quote=Anonymous]My 9 year old weighed 51 lbs at his 8 yr old checkup. Your child is very overweight. The kids in my school often come into the pre-k program very overweight. I work in a Title One school and the kids are used to eating junk food and drinking sugary drinks. We had a girl start last year who was probably around this weight. She would waddle down the hallway and would need to stop frequently to catch her breath. She couldn't run like the other kids so she just stood outside during recess. She couldn't climb on the playground equipment. She was frequently absent due to illness. OP- I would get help from the doctor and possibly a dietician now. If there are no medical issues causing this weight gain, she is going to have a dietician work on a food plan for her. [/quote]
