eating disorder
My 12 year old son is forever hungry.Would ovreat the things he likes but will remain hungry if the food is not of his choice.Loves to eat junk food ,fried ,nonvegetrerian food but a big no to greens and vegetables in general.How can I cure this as he is gaining weight despite of doing excercises becoz he eats more than he burns!
another thing that may help is whatever his favorite meal is say burgeres fries and a milkshake make it at home with his have him chop things up you could use lean beef and make homeade fries instead of frying them drizzle them with olive oil and season or make sweet potato fries i find kids love them and for like the milkshake use fat free ice cream or low fat and for a little extra treat let him put whatever he wants into it. he'll feel proud he helped you cook and its much lower in fat and calories.
theres a cookbook called deceptively delicious by jessica seinfield it has junk style food that kids tend to go for but healthy i would say get this i got my copy at barnes and noble i think it was $15 other than that maybe just increase his pyshical activity more. good luck:)
