I have like i said a 10 yr old daughter who was just recently diagnosed with whats called Metabolic Syndrmone.The doctor put her on a 30 gram a day fat diet,500 mg glucophage,and 15 minutes of aerobics or walking 5 miles a day.I have been doing my best to find the right foods and fat grams but its tough when it comes to finding the fat grams in foods like meat,poultry,pork,and other stuff!Does anyone know where i can find a web page or anything that tells you what fat grams are in what?The doctor said that this is a very serious condition.That starts with P.C.O.S(Polycystic Ovaier syndrome),High blood pressure,Type2 diabetes,High triglcerides,heart attack,and maybe even fatal.So if you have any help for my daughter or guidence for me id apperciate it !!!!Thank you Eva

weight watchers has a point system that is based on fat/fiber and calories
you can get the book and use it to help you find out how many fat grams are in what your son is eating
best of luck to you both
