How to treat child obesity who dislikes vegetables

Patient's question:

My little girl, who is one year old, has recently been observed to have a lot of meat on her body and a very large appetite. She doesn't like playing outside as much. I would like to ask: How should I treat my child's obesity and dislike for vegetables?

Doctor's answer:

To help your child improve symptoms of obesity, you need to arrange appropriate exercise and diet for them. You can start by gradually increasing the intensity of exercise for your child, such as jogging. For example, you can have them run half a lap more each time during exercise. During this period, encourage your child to eat more foods like cucumbers, tomatoes, and kiwis. Avoid giving them fried chicken, cakes, or other high-fat foods. Additionally, do not let your child lie down motionless after meals. If, during the treatment for childhood obesity, you notice that your child's condition worsens significantly, it is important to promptly take them to the hospital to identify the underlying cause and receive targeted treatment.
