10 Year Old Weight Lose
22 Answers
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...

Cutting out fizzy juice, crisps etc but not cutting out essential food groups would also benefit him. Contact your GP for advice would help too. 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

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.

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.
