Hi, I'm not sure where to post this question so I thought I'd start here. I have a 13 year old nephew (only child) who is very overweight and doesn't exercise or play like other kids. (Although his parents are very nice, they aren't any help, they're very heavy too. High 200's) I've checked out some sites/search engines (most are commercial) but can't find any info on how many calories they should have and how many he should have to lose weight. I know I can't do it for him but I want to be prepared for any questions when and if the time comes. He stayed at my house last week end and I swear he has a one tract mind. I feel like doing a family intervention. (Any opinions?) I can almost see why some people think it's a form of abuse. He's in danger of failing classes at school too. Any suggestions or sites would be appreciated.
Thanks
