My 6 year old son's weight has just ballooned this summer. We moved from Chicago where summer's are much more mild, to Tennessee where 100 degree heat is the norm. He just has NO desire to go outside to play in the heat so he's been a couch potato and has really packed on the pounds. We have him on a program now where we monitor every bite that goes in his mouth, journal his food, and FORCE him to be outdoors at least 30 minutes a day...he is homeschooled this year and we would really like to use this time to get him in better physical shape so he isn't picked on and teased when he goes back to school next fall. I would appreciate any advice at all...thanks!
