Weight Loss Tips For Kids

There are different types of aerobic activities, to help motivate your child to expend calories. Walking, jogging, bike riding and rollerblading are all great ways to burn calories.

Encourage your child to stay active in other ways, like using the stairs instead of the elevator, or walking instead of driving to a friend's house or the local store.

Offer low fat foods like skimmed milk and low-fat yogurts or cheeses. Rather than potato chips, cakes and cookies, low-fat snacks like popcorn or pretzels are better choices.

Encourage your child to eat only when she/he is hungry and not as a ritual. Serve family meals only in the kitchen or dining room without any other distractions like the television.

A glass of fresh juice has fiber that can help your child feel more full and satisfied, and it has fewer calories. Encourage your child to have more juices and reduce the consumption of colas and other aerated drinks.

In order to make a child successfully lose weight, you need to pack a nutritious lunch for school. Learn different ways of packing extra nutrition for lunch without making the food boring.

Kids love display of color and if you experiment on their food with natural colors they would rather enjoy eating their food. Fruits and vegetables can create a rich color palette with full wide range of flavors and textures.

Fill up half of the plate with fruits and veggies at each meal, because kids are often fascinated by oddly shaped fruits and vegetables.

Foods that have a higher fiber content take longer for the body to digest and keep the body feeling full longer. So you need to choose foods that have got bulk of fiber, vitamins, minerals and antioxidants without being removed from the grain, to help nourish the growing body.

Eating every three hours helps to regulate blood sugar, decreasing the hunger sensation. Keep fresh fruit where kids can easily access. Keep a container with sliced vegetables for a quick and easy snack.
