"As a pediatrician in private practice I find a good deal of my time is dedicated to helping patients and parents deal with obesity, eating disorders, and just the general childhood fussy eater. Part of my treatment plan has been to put these families in touch with an IMAGEplus+ dietitian who can help them get on the right path to healthy eating. I like their approach to working with kids because they strive to incorporate the foods they like into the diet plan"

Worried about obese kids?

Just a snippet from an article in today’s Denver Post (source: The Philadelphia Inquirer). Brian Wansink, author of “Mindless Eating: Why We Eat More Than We Think” comments on Jennifer Orlet Fisher’s research… “When it comes to childhood obesity or obesity in general, people love to point fingers…” Fisher’s work “shows how a parent or other gatekeepers in a household can make a difference in childhood obesity, tonight.”

I could not agree more! That is the reason why I am passionate about sitting down across the kitchen table with parents and their children to help them all bring a mindful presence back into their eating!
