Overweight and Obesity Management in Children – Family group Weight Loss

Overweight

The things our children like most are the major causes of Overweight and Obesity. Management of these in Children becomes easy if we involve them effectively in healthy lifestyles behaviors

I love my children and I believe you are too. As for me they form a very dear part of my family. Anything which is affecting them affects the whole of my family. For instance the predominant of childhood overweight and obesity in our societies is escalating to epidemic. That is why as a family we are taking the problem of overweight collectively in all dimensions. Immediate treatment is not just necessary but a must if we are to bring up healthy children today and to the generations to come. Ideally this course is best taken by the application of a non-drug, multidisciplinary approach and not forgetting diet, lifestyle change, and exercise. We are encouraged by the findings of the experts that just a little reduction of calories by only 200 – 260 each day would help in the prevention of weight gain in most overweight children.

To say the truth dear friends overweight and obesity management is not very easy and more so when the victims are children. In appreciating this fact we rely on the experts opinions to make effort in managing this problem.

Weight lose guidelines

In our group weight loss program at this facility under the able leadership of doctor Akoury, we have been given worthy tips which when adhered to, will help you bring up healthy children free from overweight and obesity. I urge you to consider getting this valuable health information from the doctor any time of choice. In the meantime, the following are some guidelines which can be very helpful when applied to your overweight children:

  • Reduce or better still avoid unhealthy fast foods, high-sugar snacks, commercial packaged snacks, soda, and sugar-sweetened beverages including too much juice.
  • Allow your children to take snacks, however always make sure that the snacks they are taking are healthy. The experts have established that children develop good weight and cholesterol profile by eating healthy meals frequently in smaller units than taking two or three big portions all at the same time.
  • Encourage your children to serve themselves their own portion of food. Doing this has been established from one of the studies that when children are allowed to serve themselves, they tend to consume 25% less.
  • Never use provocative words to overweight children. Condemnation really does not help, instead this could put children at risk for eating disorders, conditions which could be similar or possess greater dangers to their health.
  • Discourage over use of television, video games, and computer to a few hours a week. This will immensely result in proper weight control, even without use of diet and physical activity.

As a society and parents we need to focus on doing things which will make our children see us as there role models towards healthy lifestyle. What we eat both at work and at home is very important. Therefore during our family weight loss group training, we impact on our children to remain focus on the following three important behaviors:

  • Improved food choices
  • Increased physical activity
  • Reduced screen time.

It is important noting that these three behaviors are not only meant for children but the whole concept is applicable to everyone. Therefore if we succeed in impacting these things in our children at their young stages of life, then we will be making progress in securing the good health of our coming generation. Can you take a moment and make a reflection of how life can be if we are all free from the pandemic of overweight and its health complications? I can only admit with great humility that “yes we can.”

Changing Sedentary Habits

Changing Sedentary Habits – I know that we have mentioned this but allow me to make some emphasis on this again. Never underrate any small changes you make as long as that they are positive. For instance even small changes in physical activity can expend energy. For example, by merely getting up to turn the TV on and off instead of being stationery and opting to using the remote, and standing while talking on your cell phone may help you lose up to five pounds a year. Can you imagine that? Very simple things we often ignored. Other suggestions include:

  • Cooking your own food at home instead of consuming the take away food stuff from the fast food.
  • Walk to as many places as possible, using stairs instead of taking the escalators, elevators and gardening.
  • Even fidgeting may be helpful in keeping pounds off, and, in one study, chewing gum increased energy expenditure.

Finally the problem of managing overweight and obesity is the responsibility of everyone. Just like obesity can affect anyone so is the burden of finding solution. If we can all pull together in our individual or collective capacities, and with the help of the professionals like doctor Akoury, we will certainly win the war for many generations to come. Be the change you want.
