Before you post a reply saying that your child is overweight or that you want them to lose weight, please first check our Weight Calculator. If the calculator says that your child is healthy weight, please do not post a message saying that they are overweight or that you want them to lose weight.  This offends the kids who really are overweight.  Thanks a lot.

If you are an adult and not a parent, type your child's age as '0'

Check here if you are a teen or preteen and type your age in the Child's Age box

From Deb, child's age 11

Any other parents surprised their child is obese? My daughter is obese, my 2 boys are normal weight. She's 98%, or 28.5 and is 11 years old. We follow all of the normal healthy guidelines. We cook almost all meals. Few refined sugars. Exercise. Sleep. Low Stress. I lost 10 lbs 3 years ago and have kept it off (actually takes a lot of vigilance even to keep off 10lbs) so we don't have junk food at home. Anybody similarly surprised their child is heavy? Also has anybody noticed having a child, even as a breastfed newborn, that put on weight remarkably fast? Thanks.
