Our Weight Management Approach
When it comes to child and adolescent weight management, If a parent, child or adolescent's focus is all about weight, then there is an inherent conflict, with good eating behaviors and a healthy self image may be at stake, as weight loss is all about cutting things out while healthy eating is all about adding things in. When you are good with nutrition, everything else will follow.​ Our approach focuses on the overall goal, which is overhauling unhealthy lifestyle behaviors and attitudes and learning a brand new set of constructive habits in eating, coupled with physical activity overtime. Further, reducing the risks of early onset adult obesity as well as curtailing or eliminating other nutrition related diseases and health problems often seen at times, in children and adolescents.
