Reportedly, the During the summer vacation, the pediatric outpatient clinic welcomes “weight loss fever” .
In fact, not only this summer vacation, but also after the start of the school holiday in previous years, you can find a few more “little fat people” in the class, the kind that can be seen at a glance “gained 10 pounds”.
Friends also often complain that her son already weighs close to 170!
I don’t even know how to comfort myself. I am less than 170cm tall, but my weight has almost reached 170 pounds. According to the calculation formula of children’s weight,
Weight (kg) = (age ×7－5)/2
Standard reference weight = (12*7-5)/2 =39.5 kg =79 catties
“Both friends are not the kind of fat people, which is too much!”.
Friend turned on the Tucao mode :
· Sleep until 9 in the morning
· Play until 12pm
· “If you don’t eat during the day, you just like to eat snacks, whatever is sweet!”
· “You can’t even get out of the house!”
· Various “inducements” or “squatting at home”
Then I saw the child’s face gradually becoming rounder, and his waist was as thick as his two. I heard that obesity in adults can easily cause “three highs”. I wonder if there are any related problems in childhood obesity?
A friend went to the hospital specifically to consult with a pediatrician
Obesity in children is equally predisposed to adult diseases such as high blood pressure, hyperlipidemia and diabetes, doctors say.
In addition, children are in the growth phase, which can also affect bone development and increase the burden on the heart and lungs.
At the same time, obesity can easily cause ridicule among peers, generate inferiority complex, and affect social interaction.
If childhood is not intervened, carried over to the adult state, it also increases the risk of other chronic conditions.
The fatness of the child must intervene, says the friend!
I. Metabolic management
For babies who are still growing, “dieting” is not advisable. It is necessary to activate their metabolic ability and make the body “move”.
The child grows up and needs various nutritional supplements every day. “Dieting” will cut off the child’s nutritional entrance, which can easily cause the child to lack certain nutrients and affect development.
It is normal for children not to move at home, their body metabolizes slowly, and they eat a lot of miscellaneous things. Can this not make them fat? So, find ways to activate your child’s metabolism, and in the case of a balanced nutrition, promote absorption, while eating well, full, and right.
How to do it, for example:
Diet
· Breakfast should have high-quality protein, such as eggs, milk, and soy milk; paired with slow carbon, such as whole wheat bread; and paired with vegetables and fruits, so that children can eat well, be nutritious, and be full of energy throughout the morning, and their minds will turn fast.
· The nutrition of lunch and dinner is similar to that of breakfast, but the quantity must be sufficient for lunch and dinner. This will make the child feel full without allowing him to eat enough and leave excess calories.
Sport
· At least 30 minutes of outdoor exercise every day, brisk walking, running, rope skipping, cycling, and kicking. . . . . .
Sometimes, we tend to get too much attention taken away from the weight figure, ignoring the muscle the child gets more.
II, body management
What’s body shape? Body form is the posture and appearance presented in the natural state.
It’s better to make your child look good and have temperament than to care about the specific number of weight!
Think about it, a little bit heavier, but with a good straight body; or light weight, but with a rickets back?
So, body management is just as important.
How to do it, for example:
· Pay attention to daily habits. Those habits of carrying crookedly on the sofa, lying down while doing homework, and carrying backpacks should be reminded or corrected in time.
· Targeted exercise, for example, if a child is hunchbacked, he or she will stand against the wall for 10 minutes every day to help the child regain the “tall” feeling and develop habits.
It is to make targeted adjustments and moderate exercise in response to the child’s existing problems.
III Psychological management
Parents paying attention to their children’s weight, becoming obese in their own bodies, being ridiculed by their peers, etc., may put psychological pressure on their children and generate anxiety about their weight.
So in daily communication with your children, you should pay attention to your words and attitude, and don’t always say: “You are fat and still eat so much.” Makes the child feel guilty.
By substituting positive effects for negative evaluations, what is to be done?
· Pay more attention to your child’s progress and don’t just focus on your weight. For example, I learned to skip rope, I jumped 10 times in a row; I kept running 400 meters and so on.
· In the process of weight management, parents set an example for their children, such as eating less sweets, not drinking drinks, exercising outdoors with their children, etc.
· Allow occasional indulgence, such as wanting to eat ice cream in the summer, and be satisfied occasionally to avoid overeating in later stages.
For children with weak self-control, we must not only guide and give role models, but also consider their psychological, self-control and other aspects and consider them comprehensively.
For children, it is important to eat well, eat healthily, and eat happily. If you want your children to not be fat during the summer vacation, you should start from daily life, insist on a reasonable diet, exercise moderately, maintain a good posture, and provide psychological counseling.
Doing these things well, it’s natural for a child to lose weight.
