I hava a 10 year old son that weighs 110ILB and he wants to lose weight. He does swimming 2-3 times a week and karate once a week. I also found "Slim in 6" which he dose 3-6 times a week.
But nothing seems to work. So if you can tell me how to lose weight, I will tell him.

What height is your son, this is a key factor on how much he should weigh also at his age. Sounds as if he is on the right track with excercise, the more active he is the fitter he will get which is upmost with kids and to combine this with healthy eating would surely help him lose weight. Cutting out fizzy juice, crisps etc but not cutting out essential food groups...

Getting the whole family invovled with excercise and healthy eating would help him too
I agree with MOST of the things that aldi5 has highlighted.

Does he look overweight?.....I prefer the term FAT,........cus that is what it is.

He swims 2-3 times a week,he does Karate once a week.....for Christ. sake, what more do you want out of a10year old boy?

I appreciate that HE wants to lose weight, but are you the instigating force?
Agree sqad - I work with children and we have one girl who can only be described as fat (being over weight does not always equate to being fat though) and she plays football, runs around like I've never seen a thin child run around, does trampolining, plays rounders and more yet her weight is maintained at what it is.

I have to say that if my son (or daughter) came to me at age 10 and said 'I want to lose weight' I'd be asking why, rather than justifying his wants
I'm more inclined to think this is an ad for ''Slim in 6'' to be honest!

divegirl....I have a suspicion that you are correct....;-)
I just Googled that "Slim in 6" thing, it is very expensive and I doubt it tells us anything that can't be found for free.
he weighs the same as my (almost 18 yr old) daughter, and we don't know his height. it's wise to address matters before adulthood.

I'd suggest you look at portion sizes, cut out the naughty foods and get more healthy stuff in.. but I wouldn't call it a diet for his benefit.

and I wouldn't call him "fat" to his face, even if he is.
I think lava was hoping we would ask so he can provide a link..
At 10 he is about to enter a growth spurt and he will shoot up..the extra weight will probably take care of itself then as his body will need to call on all its' reserves then....
if it's an ad for something that's not working, I think I'd blame the advertisers!
Suckered in, that was sqads fault. He replied so figured it must be a genuine q ;-)
ojread...LOL........am I that boring?
I may have to back away now.............. ;o)
but the OP says that the slim thing doesn't work so not much of an advert for it if that is what it is
If it's an ad she needs to go on a few marketing courses. Saying it doesnt work isnt its biggest selling point.

I would suggest you watch what the little porker is stuffing into his face.
Evian, you have a similar bedside manner to Sqad, I see!
I'm a fan of tough love Sara :)
I wonder if "Slim in 6" has a competitor that we are going to be informed about soon. ;)
maybe another new user will post a alternative that has amazing result?
If this isn't an ad, then I'd do nothing!

I was an active kid - always out playing football, riding my bike, climbing trees etc... yet was fat. I didn't eat any more than other kids my age.

My father always referred to it as puppy fat.

As soon as puberty started to kick in the weight fell off me. Over the course of the summer holiday during my 1st year in secondary school and starting my 2nd year it was a though I was a different person.

My 8 year old daughter is 'chunky' and yet eats bugger all and has loads of exercise, so despite Mrs Flop's constant worrying about her weight, it doesn't particularly bother me as I suspect as soon as she hits puberty it will fall off her as well.
