How should child obesity with a meat preference be diagnosed and treated?

Patient's question:

My little girl, who is 4 years old this year, has been gaining more weight over the past year. She also eats more than the average child and doesn't seem interested in exercising. I'm asking: What should I do about my child's obesity and her love for meat?

Doctor's answer:

To help your child improve symptoms of obesity, it's important to arrange reasonable exercise and diet for them. You can plan aerobic activities for your child, such as swimming or jogging. Encourage your child to eat more foods like apples, kiwis, and carrots. Your child should avoid high-calorie foods such as cakes and macadamia nuts. Additionally, it's essential to change your child's habit of disliking exercise, as it can easily lead to fat accumulation. During the treatment period, parents should closely monitor their child's condition. In severe cases, treatment should be conducted under the guidance of a doctor, and avoid blind treatment.
