Weight Loss To Rock Climb
Diet Dilemma: Kids Birthday Party?
I am hosting a party for the child of a friend of mine. The boy is over weight and the parents were advised by the GP to put him on a supervised diet. Now they are trailing all the way to the UK from Canada and I wanted to give him the best birthday ever…. Full-English breakfast, Muffins, Birthday cake etc… But that’s hardly suitable now.
I have already arranged for a variety of activities while they are here (kayaking, rock climbing, walking and biking tours – fun activities that involve a little bit of exercise) but also museum trips and a shopping spree (girl’s gotta shop!) I am really just struggeling with the food bit on the actual day.
He will turn 9 and I really want it to be a memorable day without a gloomy diet and the daily debate of weight-loss hanging over him.
How can I still have a typical birthday party for him but as little calories as possible. I don’t want him to feel bad about his weight on his birthday by munching on rice crisps!
Hi – try the ‘cook yourself thin’ cook books – you can get them from waterstones.
They have some excellent recipes in there for ‘normal’ foods just made low calorie but still taste amazing, I made the low cal chocolate brownies last night and they are to die for!
I can’t recommend this book enough to people!
