"Hit the gym for a workout—but sit for hours at your computer. Supersize your value meals—but downsize your waistline."
When "I feel fat" becomes a teen's common refrain, how can worried parents respond constructively? With I'm, Like, So Fat! Dr Dianne Neumark-Sztainer shows parents how to strike the difficult balance between bolstering self-esteem and offering constructive advice. Drawing on her landmark study, Project EAT (Eating Among Teens), and her experience as a mother of four, Neumark-Sztainer offers science-based, practical ideas for instilling healthy eating and exercise habits, educating teens about nutrition and portion size, and talking about body image. Here is a rock-solid foundation that parents everywhere can build on to help their teens stay fit, eat well, and feel good about their looks in a world where digitally-enhanced bodies are used to sell everything from cosmetic surgery to fast food.
