Let's face it.
No one wants to be overweight and kids are no different .
Weight loss for kids is sometimes looked at as a somewhat controversial topic but if your child is overweight then you should not feel bad about approaching this subject matter.
Weight is a big deal in our society and it is easy to see why, it reflects how people perceive you and it also reflects how healthy you are.
People naturally want other people to be in good health, it is simple human nature.
Many children who grow up over weight can develop insecure emotions and self consciousness due to dealing with name calling and harassment from other children.
If you were overweight yourself as a child you probably know how difficult this can be.
If you never went through this yourself imagine everyone picking on you all at once with no one to understand your pain.
Being obese as a child is flat out no fun.
Not only is eating healthier good for their body and mental health it is also great for learning discipline and cutting back on food costs.
No more dealing with whining or crying for a meal at McDonalds that cost $6.
You can create delicious and YES nutritious meals at home for less than half the price.
So really when it all boils down to it, what do you have to lose other than a couple of pounds and annoying whining? Help your child lose weight and they will thank you for the rest of their lives.
