Chances are you have a child that needs to be encouraged and enticed into some kind of physical activity. However even if your child is of small stature but does no exercise this is just as unhealthy as a child that is overweight and does no exercise. Lets face it there are people out there that can eat and eat and dont have to exercise and never put on weight and others that eat the same amounts and put on weight but that is a fact of life that is unfair but true. If you look at all the food calorie counters it all comes down to energy in energy out and that is the key.

What you eat need to be burnt off so those people that eat and eat actually do more physical activity than the one that gains allot of weight. The reason I say this is because the books all say if you dont do any activity at all during the day you can have this many calories and if you do a walk or run or 30 minutes of physical activity you can have allot more calories.

The key is healthy food and exercise but without letting your child know what you are doing gradually change the foods that you are giving your child to eat. Buy them a skipping rope, balls , hoola hoop anything that is designed to make physical activity fun. Get out and play with them it wont hurt you to get in a bit of extra exercise but it is also quality time with your kids. I know you probably have a very hectic schedule but go out there start them off then do what you need to do inside in a place where you can see what they are doing and encourage them so they will keep going because when the exercise thing is new to them they will get the urge to stop and go back to the TV. Persist and you wont have to worry about your child being labelled the fat kid anymore.
