Overweight children can be helped to a healthier, more satisfying life thought practical lifestyle changes made by the entire family. Caroline J. Cederquist, M. D. has drawn on her medical experience in successful weight management for this commonsense guide, Helping Your Overweight Child - A Family Guide. Through it, family members can better understand why a child has a weight problem, and the facts about nutrition and good eating and exercise habits. The information can be used to develop healthy habits for all adults and children in the family. Dr. Cederquist provides sample sheets for goals and for "eating," "exercise" and "emotional" journals. Overweight children learn how to set reasonable goals and to make healthy decision. The appendix includes valuable comparisons of the nutrition value and fast content of many brand-name food products and meals found in fast-food restaurants. She also provides recipes from her kitchen that are nutritionally sound and kid-pleasers.
