Trim Kids



Recommended Posts

Has anyone ever heard of or used Trim Kids? (the book not the video) My little girl is a little heavy and from what I can see this book helps to incorporate healthy eating and exercise. Actually it will help me do it for her. I don't want her to read it or even know that I think she is heavy.I remember how damaging that can be. Any feedback would be great.

Havent seen or heard of it over here.

My oldest son is a little chubby at the moment, but I have the feeling he's about to shoot up, and he's going to be a BIG boy, his dad is 6ft 3 and I think he may be going to be taller than that.

I just try to encourage lots of organised sport, both boys play basketball twice a week and Aussie Rules during the winter, they have an hour or so of sport a day during school too - either formal PE or the lunchtime heroes competition where they play footy, soccer, bombadier (dont ask me what this is) etc.

And I just dont have junk in the house.

Both kids are in extra activities. My older daughter is blessed with a metabolism that won't quit. My little one ( she is 8) tends to be chubby. She is very active but eats too much sometimes. I really hope that she grows into her weight but in case that doesn't happen I want her to at least settle the gaiing down. I don't want her to got through what I have over the years.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
