A recent study showed that overweight teens actually eat LESS than their normal weight peers. There is more to weight than just calories. Activity levels and genetics are very important contributors to weight. These so-called experts are depriving kids of what they need, and ironically, setting them up for later weight gain by putting them on restricted feeding.
What I really don’t understand is why parents put up with all this nonsense. Why do people still send their kids to government schools?
and people have forgotten about the whole BMI garbage going on too.
They are collecting data on the BMI’s of the kids and the school nurses are supposed to be gathering the info.
