Childhood Obesity- Is your child overweight?

Hi Everyone,

I do my best each segment to tell you as much as I can in a few minutes but it's difficult! I hope that you were able to see my last segment on obesity. If you want to find out if your child may have a weight problem then figure out his/her BMI, which is Body Mass Index. You will find this on my website under "Download free resources" or you can click here!

This is a great time of year to get fit as a family! A recent national study found that 50% of parents are overweight that have an overweight child. Are you one of them? Whether you are or not, it's about encouraging your child to make smarter food choices and get active. We can do this by being their role model. Children look to their parents for guidance so guide them to great health starting today!

I hope you are enjoying these weekly segments and if there is a topic you want to hear me discuss on TXA 21, then email me at askninanow@aol.com

I appreciate your support!
Dr. Nina
