[quote=Anonymous]Our doctor sat us down and told us (parents, not our daughter) that her BMI was too high and it was *way* less than your son's. She looked soft and pudgy, but not fat. We took her talk to heart and made major changes. We said nothing to our daughter at all. I made herculean efforts to start cooking and eating at home, packing lunches, no soda, and lots more exercise. I, of course, haven't lost a pound, but at the next well visit, her doctor was thrilled with her super healthy BMI. It was mean of other parents to talk about your son, but treat it as a wake up call. Our doctor wasn't mean, just very direct. I am thankful for the wakeup call. [/quote]
