Why is the child full and how to cope with it?

Does your child have a tendency to fullness? It's all around notice, and you do not make any comments to him, deciding that this is just a violation of the glands of internal secretion? Or maybe you should think about the fact that the child is not eating properly, that he does not have enough physical exertion? And the incorrect operation of the endocrine glands is a pretty serious diagnosis. In childhood it happens very rarely, and there are a lot of full children. The cause of fullness can be appetite, and genetics, and mental balance, and temperament.


If you or your grandparents are inclined to fullness, tonuravery and the child is manifested. How fat deposits are formed, have not yet been studied. The specialists found out only that the entire excess of carbohydrates is converted to fat and settles on the tissues. The excess is the carbohydrates that are not able to be consumed by the body and energy - to perform physical exertion. And this means that if a baby consumes a lot of sweet and flour, while it leads a sedentary lifestyle, it is almost impossible to avoid fatigue. Why the child leads an inactive way of life is understandable, but why he feeds on it - not completely. However, a lot of children who eat a lot.

Mental Disorder

The cause of obesity can be a spiritual disorder of the child. Of course, this does not apply to young children, more to younger schoolchildren. At this age, often the children fall into problems of a psychological nature - over time they move away from their parents and many remain completely alone. This is especially true of a shy, closed-minded children who do not know how to make friends. After all, they perfectly know that friends support in a difficult moment, and most importantly - fill the emptiness that arises when the parents move away. What do we usually do in a depressed state? We're eating. Children do the same, if they do not have friends, does not get along well with studies, and parents are busy with their own affairs, then usual antidepressants - sweets come to the rescue. The fact that a large number of home-made sweets have disappeared, parents do not care, many consider it normal. After all, all the children love sweet things. Child child discord: one will eat a pound of chocolates and ran with friends to play, and another squat for a couple of hours watching cartoons ...

The next period of appearance of excess weight is puberty. If a child eats a lot, it means that it grows fast, carbohydrates are consumed, and they do not have time to digest. In addition, extra pounds at this age are due to the fact that the child has a shower, as well as physical maturation.

Mental disorder at this age occurs for the same reasons as in the lower grades-the inability to find friends, to find a common language with peers, because of the solitude. When the period of puberty passes and the problems with excess weight go away, the boys and girls become slim. Sometimes, in that case, if a teenager at the initial stage of sexual development already had extra kilograms, then it is much more difficult to combat this since because of excess weight, he can not move like the rest of the children, so the weight is typed. The psychological discomfort increases: in school nobody likes fatty people, so they are mocked and teased, so even the most phlegmatic children can fall into depression.

How to keep to a diet?

What to do? You do not force children to stop bullying your child, and leaving just a dies child among these wolves is dangerous and very cruel. It is necessary to be treated. And as the very first and effective means to help comes diet. People have long invented this method and revived it, remember the Christian posts. But remember that fasting is self-torture and the child should not and can not do this, his body is not ready for this.

You can not just forbid to eat flour and sweet, he can not stand it and will end up secretly visiting confectionery shops. That is why smart people should make the transition to a soft diet, so that the child knows that he is not alone, and you and he are ready to overcome this problem. For it is very important to support parents and people close to him. Of course, the ideal for him is an option (almost impossible), so that the whole family can sit on a diet together. A good understanding mother will try not to tempt her child. There will be no sweet house of the house, but in the intervals between meals it will make the child eat fruit. She will try to remember all the dishes that he likes and prepares those that will not be shelved by fat folds.

If a child uses a lot of sweet and flour and leads a sedentary lifestyle, then obesity is virtually impossible to avoid.

If you see that your child needs more support than you can give him, then you need to go to the doctor. But he must go there himself, let the doctor talk to him face to face, the child must feel like an adult and an independent person who is able to make his own decisions.

The most common means of obesity are tablets, which reduce appetite. In no case do not buy your baby yourself these drugs, first necessarily consult with your doctor.

As already mentioned above, the cause of great appetite can be a mental disorder. The child may have problems with peers in school or with older family members. Perhaps, for weight reduction it will be not enough to adhere to a diet, and it will be necessary to increase physical activity. It may well be that your child needs to turn to a psychologist.

A doctor appoints a diet

Be sure to go to the doctor. You are ignorance and negligence can harm the health of your child. There are many examples when several teenage girls agreed to sit on some kind of diet (one of them heard somewhere). In a couple of days, everyone leaves the distance, stopping self-torture, and one continues to separate over himself and goes so far as to feel disgusted with food, lose weight and, in a deep famine, fainting into the hospital. They save her, but they could not have saved her. Most likely, she so selflessly went to her goal because of psychological trauma in her childhood.

In adolescence, girls are very often worried about excess weight, there are even panic attacks. Remember that the little girls need to be very delicate. That, as to their appearance, can cause inadequate behavior. There are very frequent situations when the girl grows thin to such an extent that the ribs protrude, but it seems that she is fat and you need to lose weight even more. This is anorexia. Many are afraid of their changes in physique - breast augmentation, in the hips, and when they have no one to share this with, they panic.

Diet, if not deep, then it's just some change in the diet, but in fact it is a very dangerous weapon and before using it it is necessary to consult a doctor. Nutritionist must necessarily study the body and the patient's condition, learn about his way of life. Moreover, the doctor must observe the child during the diet.

What to do if there is no opportunity to see a doctor, and the adolescent decided to adhere to a special feeding system? Convince the child that if every day to eat meat, eggs, fruits, vegetables and milk with a total weight of 700 grams, tonic will not happen badly, weight will not increase, and the body will receive all the necessary substances. If you act differently, you can go to a very great loss. People who are overweight can completely abandon the flour and sweet. Children every day should eat carbohydrates, because they grow, that's why they can not be excluded from the body. Even the most fat people should lose only half a kilogram per week, not more.
