Download or read book OMG You Think I m Fat written by Madeleine Berg and published by . This book was released on 2019-01-31 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I'm not an advocate of the "Health at Every Size" or "Fat Acceptance" movements. I know how concerning it is to watch your child's weight escalate. Childhood obesity is linked to depression, anxiety, and a myriad of other health problems. Even a modest unwanted increase in weight can cause a child to become self-conscious and have lower self-esteem. Much has been written about the childhood obesity epidemic, yet the fact that all our "helping" is making the problem worse has been largely ignored. What we've tried so far isn't working. You know this is true, or you wouldn't be reading this. This book is for good, caring parents such as yourself, who are ready to try a new approach.By the time most parents look for help, the relationship between parent and child regarding weight and food has already started to turn toxic. Even adult children are not immune from the hurt caused by their parent tossing off a casual comment or disapproving glance. There is no statute of limitations on the damage caused by parents trying to control their child's weight. Weight and weight control are hot button issues for many of us throughout our lives. I'm not saying I have all the answers, but I can say with absolute certainty that trying to control your child's weight is like trying to catch a knife in midair. Not only is it impossible, but any attempt you make will only cause more damage.I know you want what is best for your child. There is no quick fix or miracle cure. Your child may always struggle to maintain a healthy weight. You may always struggle to come to terms with your child's weight. You may always struggle to come to terms with your own weight. The purpose of this book is to let you know you are not alone. It is intended to help shed light on the problem, identify the behaviors that are not working, and help create a positive, constructive path for you and your child to move forward.

Download or read book Super sized Kids written by Walt Larimore and published by Florida Hospital Publishing. This book was released on 2005 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The experts at America's 'Hospital of the Future' provide a comprehensive approach to helping parents control their children's weight while developing a healthy, active lifestyle. Studies show that as many as one in four American children is overweight, and childhood obesity rates have doubled since the late 1970s. Medical problems that doctors once saw only in adults aged 50 or older are now striking individuals in their 20s and younger, including heart disease, stroke, diabetes, colorectal cancer, high blood pressure, asthma, joint problems, and arthritis. In this essential new book, a pediatric endocrinologist and a respected dietician present a step-by-step, medically sound, and achievable weight-control program that will benefit the whole family. Poor diet and sedentary lifestyles-as well as a lack of parental guidance-are at the root of this child obesity epidemic. Studies show that approximately 40 % of obese children will grow up to be obese adults. This book seeks to break this alarming pattern.

Download or read book Your Child s Weight written by Ellyn Satter and published by Kelcy Press. This book was released on 2011-12-01 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As much about parenting as feeding, this latest release from renowned childhood feeding expert Ellyn Satter considers the overweight child issue in a new way. Combining scientific research with inspiring anecdotes from her decades of clinical practice, Satter challenges the conventional belief that parents must get overweight children to eat less and exercise more. In the long run, she says, making them go hungry and forcing them to be active makes children preoccupied with food, prone to overeating, turned off to activity, and likely to gain too much weight. Trust is a central theme here: children must be able to trust parents to provide as much food as they need to satisfy their appetites; parents must trust children to eat only as much as they need. Satter provides compelling evidence that, if parents do their jobs with respect to feeding, children are remarkably capable of knowing how much to eat.

Download or read book Fat Kids written by Rebecca Jane Weinstein and published by Beaufort Books. This book was released on 2014-10-06 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fat Kids: Truth and Consequences is an informational vault of deeply personal tales and essential information, focusing on the lives, questions, and concerns of parents and children living in a childhood obesity crisis. Unlike most books about weight, however, Fat Kids is not a dieting or weight loss how-to; it instead explores the true human experiences and often untold science outside the current political positioning on children and weight. This book powerfully combines interviews, relevant research, social anecdotes, personal author accounts, and the reality of children struggling with weight, to create a narrative that is profoundly poignant, accessible, and essential for understanding our current war on fat. Fat Kids is a truly unique work; all other books focusing on children and weight are solely focused only on diet and weight loss. This book, with its empathetic point of view, raw emotion, and solid information, is a necessary voice in the literary scene.

Book excerpt: Controlling Child Obesity - Keeping Your Children Healthy Table of Contents Introduction Reasons for obesity Side effects of Childhood Obesity Does Your Child Have a Genuine Weight Problem? How to prevent Obesity in Your Child Healthy Convenience Food Options Homemade Burger Patties Homemade chicken Nuggets Chips Ice cream Conclusion Publisher Introduction Did you know that in the last 30 years, the childhood obesity cases in children have more than doubled and more than quadrupled, in teenagers and adolescents, in the USA alone? 7% of children were considered to be obese in 1980. In 2012, that percentage had increased to 18%. In the same manner, teenage obesity had increased from 5% to 21% in that particular time period. What is the difference between obesity and overweight? Overweight means that our body has extra body weight, due to water, bone, fat, muscle, or any of these combined factors for a particular and given height. On the other hand, obesity is concerned with just extra body fat. Millennium ago, the idea of children being obese was a rather rare phenomenon. They may have been overweight, because of lack of physical exercise and eating lots of food indiscriminately. But they were not obese, because they were not genetically conditioned to be so. Also, sedentary lifestyles at that time was not encouraged in children because, since childhood, they were trained to do hard physical labor, which they would continue for the rest of their lives. In many parts of the world, there are still societies which equate being fat and well-rounded with being prosperous. That is the reason why even now, mothers still stuff up their children, with lots and lots of food, so that people do not blame them for “starving their children” because they are so thin. How did this attitude of society come into being? We have to go back millenniums ago, when man was still struggling to survive. That is when it was not so easy for him to get enough of food to feed his large family. This is the reason why plenty of his children stayed hungry unless they could forage for themselves. It was only in a comparatively prosperous family, that they could get enough of food to eat, in order to get “fat.” That is when fat became synonymous with prosperity. Kings and emperors were never shown to be lean, slim and thin, unless they were warriors and were in battle worthy conditions, in wall paintings or rock carvings. They had this bit of a paunch. This was to show that they had enough of food to eat and to eat heartily, so that they could get fat.
