First, I would suggest you get the diet under control. Make sure your children are eating sweets and going to the restaurants in moderation. Make sure they are getting lots of vegetables, fruits and whole foods. Next, make sure they are getting enough exercise. They cannot have a healthy body if they're sitting in front of the TV all afternoon.

Childhood obesity is a serious medical condition that affects children and adolescents. It occurs when a child is well above the normal weight for his or her age and height. Childhood obesity is particularly troubling because the extra pounds often start children on the path to health problems that were once confined to adults, such as diabetes, high blood pressure and high cholesterol. Childhood obesity can also lead to poor self-esteem and depression.
