[quote=Anonymous]What measurements do you do to your son to monitor his weight? When my son was overweight at about 9 we were told to do waist, chest and leg length to see if he was growing. Waist and cheat were fine but doing the leg length was always awkward because when they have such a chubby belly it starts coming over their trousers. This meant when measuring his leg length we had to sort of lift his belly fat out of the way to get the tape measure at the correct height. He absolutely hated it and it made him feel even more fat - how do you cope with this?[/quote]
