How to diagnose and treat pediatric obesity and laziness

Patient's question:
My child is a boy, 7 years old. This year, I feel that he is getting fatter and fatter. Also, he can eat several bowls of food in one meal and likes to lie down after eating. Please ask: How should pediatric obesity be diagnosed and treated?
Doctor's answer: If the child suffers from obesity, parents should start with his exercise and diet. Parents can encourage the child to engage in exercises that help reduce obesity, such as jogging or swimming. Additionally, foods like carrots and spinach are beneficial for weight management. Avoid letting the child eat high-calorie, high-fat foods, such as hamburgers, French fries, and cookies. It is also important to change the child's habit of disliking exercise, as this can easily lead to fat accumulation. During the treatment of obesity, if the child's condition is severe, it is essential to take him to a regular hospital for treatment.
