I'm not overly concerned about his weight. It just seemed to be heavy for a child of 7 nearly 8. He eats a lot of fruit but the dentist has told us we need to cut back our kids fruit intake. Ds3 can easily eat an apple in under 2 minutes. He eats fast.

We are trying to teach him to eat slower and not go back for seconds but I don't want to make him feel any worse then he does about his body. I feel as though I am starting him a path of worrying about his weight. We have told him he is simply a different build and explained how everyone has different shapes and heights ect. Like having different hair colour

Scales have been put away and he starts auskick this afternoon with his sister and school. I am sure he will be starving when he get home so ill cook extra veges .

I am amazed at what this kid can eat though. He can sit down for say an afternoon snack and eat an apple, mandarin then ask for a carrot and then still eat more then what I eat at dinner time
