What About Dieting?

What About Dieting?Kids today face two weight-related issues:

  • Child obesity
  • Body image dissatisfaction
    • Even kids at a healthy weight are unhappy with their bodies and are taking steps to change them
    • This is happening at a much younger age – to girls even as young as 4

In our diet-crazy world, adults and kids alike may wrongly look to diets as a solution.

Dieting is not the solution.
