How does a child lose weight?

Sweetladylove2 @Sweetladylove2 (46) • United States 27 Jul 07

My daughter is 6 years old and she is over weight and I know some of it is my fault because I let her eat what ever. Now I am watching what she eats but she sometimes she sneaks food or hounds me for hours for food. What can I do?...

zavansky First see my response to your other question in regards to diet. Then make sure you are having fun with her to keep her active. Take her for nature walks and find how many types of leaves you can find, or get her a personal trampoline, or kick a ball around at...

zavansky Make sure that she is getting the appropriate fruits and vegetables, (5 servings a day) if this is the case, then take her to the DR. so that they can determine what is wrong, if anything. If nothing is wrong I would do postive rewards for accident free days....

zavansky They say you should give your body at least 12 months before becoming pregnant again. (This is also good for your teeth to give them time to build up calcium. It's up to you and your husband though.

zavansky Sounds like you already know how you feel about things and what you'd like to do. No one can really know your child's needs and schedule who hasn't spent the past how ever long working with her on it.

zavansky I feel the same as the first person who responded. The american academy of pediatrics recomends that you wait until at least 2 years of age and look for "signs of rediness."

Would you breastmilk your baby in public, like in the park, restaurant,etc?

jonaida @jonaida (574) • Philippines 5 Jul 07

When my baby wants to drink milk in public, I let her if I have something to cover with, it's just embarrassing to do it infront of other people.

zavansky I charge $100 a week for potty trained full timers, and $125 for not potty trained full timers. I also will be getting the food program as I get up and running. This is what every, and I mean EVERY daycare here charges though, and some charge more.
