Getting Kids Moving – Help for Overweight Teens

May 7th, 2010  |  Published in Diet Tips & Articles

In a bid to help curb the ever-increasing obesity epidemic there has been a major increase in the number of schools that specifically tailor for overweight teenagers, sadly despite the massive increase in the number of such schools the rates of obesity have remained by and large, unchanged.

Fat childrenOne of the biggest problems with these schools is the astronomically high fees that come with them, placing them well beyond the access of many average families.

How do these residential schools work then? Well, whilst these schools rely upon tried and tested methods of weight loss (diets high in nutrition, increased exercise) another focal selling point for them is that they provide a neutral and safe environment for the teens.

This is especially significant for overweight teens because they tend to have a negative cycle of stress (which acts as a trigger) and attempting to relieve the stress through means of a mass-eating binge.

Part of the attraction for these schools is that they take the kids out of their usual environment that contains these triggers that result in the excess eating. Whilst this is used as a selling point for these schools, this is something of a double-edged sword, posing a potential threat as well as a liability because there is a real danger that the teens are being placed in a sterile environment with the usual stresses of the world firmly removed. This means that the teens do not learn proper handling strategies and so when they come out of the schools they end up suffering a major crisis as a result.

I have tried my absolute best to find at least one story of an overweight teen who not only graduated from one of these schools, but who has managed to lead a happy healthy life from there on out. To this day, I have still not found one, although I do not intend to give up searching any time soon.
