about the weight watchers app for kids...i’m thinking it may be for overweight/obese kids? i can see it being mentally taxing for those who are at a normal weight for their size. can you explain more about how it’s child abuse?

hello. thank you so much for actually being chill and open for a dialogue, unlike how aggressive people have been about the post.

anyway, i have been thinking about how to tackle this one the entire day, and i am afraid it’s gonna be a long one, so i’ll put it under a cut. i’m just gonna start out with a little background about myself, to explain how i am forming my opinions on the subject, and where my knowledge comes from.

i have been overweight more or less my entire life, even though i have gone through anorexia and bulimia, and have been eating below my necessary calorie intake literally my entire life (i grew up very poor, so we just simply didn’t have enough, or satisfyingly nourishing, food in the house). to this day i struggle with disordered eating patterns and body dysmorphia. i have been lifting weights on/off for 12 years, and i have been seeing a licensed nutritionist for a year and a half now, which has helped me lose 22 kg. i am still working on it. i have worked with a long line of fitness trainers (my mom is a licensed fitness trainer, for one), and about three different nutritionists. so while i don’t have any education in either of those fields, i have worked with professionals that have taught me a lot. i have also studied psychology in college for a year, and specifically child psychology for another year - i also spent a year working with kids ages 2-6.

my two youngest sisters did a weightwatchers program when they were around 8 and 10, so i have also seen upclose how that works. that was many years ago - and not in america - so i do know that the way things worked then/works in america compared to where i live, may not be the exact same. but the guidelines for the company, and their strategies should be the same, since it is afterall the same company. now, both of my sisters lost weight. they also gained it back. and more, and more, and both of them are extremely overweight today. in the way that i am the “thin” sister, compared. and they are eating disordered. they have no grasp of how to deal with food. they are intelligent women, and they know the basics of “if you eat too much pizza and ice cream, you will gain weight” but they don’t know, and don’t have the energy, to apply it to how they live. they are not only compulsive overeaters, they also don’t have a healthy eating pattern that could help stabilize their metabolism.

okay, so with that out of the way, let’s get to the actual app - and weightwatchers.

the app offers a diet, even though it is a fact that diets do not work. they literally do not. people who go on a diet will gain the weight right back on, and more. because diets are short-term solutions, and they are designed to make someone lose X amount of weight in X amount of time. it is not sustainable - just as with the oh-so-popular juice cleanses. for someone to lose weight, and keep it off, a complete lifestyle change is needed, but that is just not as simple as some companies, magazines, blogs, etc. will make it sound. because every single person is unique and what their body needs to maintain a healthy weight is unique to them specifically. in order to lose weight your daily calorie intake needs to be in a caloric deficit, but this depends on your height, your current weight, how your body is built, and more. those are things the app simply don’t take into account. now, i haven’t actually downloaded the app myself (i refuse to give them the clicks), but a licensed trainer i follow on instagram posted screencaps on her story. as far as i could see they take height and weight, and that’s that. but the human body is much more complex than just height and weight - especially when it comes to children and teenagers, who are growing, and going through tremendous hormonal changes. but i will get to that later.

what should also be taken into account are things like hormonal imbalances, and the fact that people breaks down macronutrients (carbhohydrates, proteins and fats) differently. fx, my sisters have poly cystic ovary syndrome (pcos), which means that their bodies can’t handle carbohydrates very well, whereas i need most carbs, medium protein, small amounts of fats. but apps like these don’t take that into account, because it is impossible for an app to do a check for what every single individual needs. i for example recently found out that my body doesn’t break down dairy very well. i have been using plant based milk, yogurt, ice cream and butter, instead of animal based for years, and only very small amounts of animal based cheese, so when my nutritionist had me switch to animal based yogurt i started gaining weight. i went back to plant based and the weight went off.

nutrition and a healthy lifestyle cannot be taught simplistic, because it is about the individual, and it takes a trial, error and do-over period to find what works for your specific body. and what works for your body now, might not have worked ten years ago, or ten years from now, because hormones changes how our bodies processes macronutrients. but this app is a “one size fits all”-system.

and this system. the system it is using is based on shaming children; making them feel inadequate, making them scared, and ashamed of their bodies. the “before and after” photos i have seen, have all been kids who weren’t even that big to begin with. and the fact that the “goals” to choose from when signing up includes choices such as “make my parents proud” is manipulative and destructive for a child/teenager. no kid should ever even have the thought that they need to be a certain weight/size, or their parents won’t be proud of them. the entire set-up is sowing the seed that their weight is the deciding factor for their worth as people, which is the beginning to eating disorders.

now, kids’ bodies really start changing around the age of eight (the age of which you can sign up for this monster); these years are called pre-teens for a reason. hormones really start flowing, and body fat is really needed to help the hormones and toxins take care of the body. but if a child is forced to lose excessive amounts of body fats, this can’t happen. this is one of the reasons that professional child ballerinas, gymnasts, ice skaters, etc. don’t develop until very late. some don’t even get their period until their twenties, because their development has been stunted by excessive dieting and exercising.

their psyche of children and teens are also really delicate, and they are in the process of developing what kind of people they are going to be. not only that, also what their relationships with their bodies are gonna be like. if they are constantly told by their parents/siblings/apps that they need to lose weight, that they have to track and count every calorie they consider eating, and every step they take, does that seem like a healthy foundation for how they view their body, nutrition and exercise in the future?

the way the app works is with the so-called stoplight system, where if when you put in a food it will either give you a green light (good), yellow light (medium) or red light (bad) - but the thing is that, again, that is not how simple nutrition is. you would think that the red foods would be soda, ice cream, chips etc., and the green foods would be stuff like fruits and vegetables. but again, the trainer i followed said that she put in her food for the day: a protein bar, two eggs with bread, and a piece of fruit. the protein bar came up red, the eggs and bread yellow and the fruit green. now, all of these foods are things that are written down in my carefully calculated meal plan from my nutritionist. in my plan i also have lots of vegetables, pasta, rice, chicken, even chocolate and chips. but the thing is that it’s all about how much of it i eat. and that is another thing the app doesn’t seem to take into consideration. if i was to put in nothing but vegetables it would give me green light the whole way, but it would not be nourishing for a whole day.

this app is forming their minds to spend all their energy worrying about what they eat, when they eat, how they eat. think of an eight year old with this app going to a birthday party - do you think they would be able to enjoy regular kiddie birthday party food, with the red light in the back of their heads? even if it is just one day? this app is gonna rob them of their childhood, and being able to enjoy life.

so, what i am trying to say is that the app is bad because the system doesn’t work. it is not teaching healthy habits, it is not giving advice on how to obtain a sustainable weightloss, and it doesn’t care about whether the children are actually overweight or not. it is created by a company whose sole purpose is to make money.

i don’t think that all of the parents who are buying into this are doing it because they are evil; i do believe that they think they are doing what is best for their children, but their views on body images and nutrition have also been skewed by the media and the diet culture we are living in. parents may look at their daughter’s chubby cheeks and think she’s unhealthy when she is literally just a kid with puppy fat that she will grow out of once adolescence hits. sure, there are kids who are truly in an unhealthy state with their bodies, but then the parents should have the help from a licensed professional, starting out with seeing a doctor who can tell them whether their child truly is overweight to a degree that it is dangerous, and from there on be referred to professionals that knows what they are doing. kids shouldn’t feel guilty when eating, but they will with this app.

i do realize that overweight is a problem, for both children and adults - not just in america, but most of the western world. (fun fact: the other day i saw a program that said that china is, as of 2017, the “fattest” country in the world, so it’s not just the western world, i just don’t have enough information about other places to say anything about that.) but a “one size fits all”-app is not the way to handle this issue. there are way too many layers to the problem to fix that.

not only is it important to remember that overweight does not equal unhealthy, regardless of age, gender, race, or anything else, but unhealthy overweight is especially tied to low-income persons, as nourishing food is much more expensive and accessible to people with middle-class and above incomes.

there is also the fact that education about proper nourishment is non-existent. what people know about dietary information is what they get from the media, where they will tell you garbage like goat milk is bad one day, and literally the next the same publication will tell you it’s the fountain of youth. it’s unreliable, and has no roots in actual science. even statistics can’t be trusted, because those often stem from surveys and projects paid for by big cooperations who are paying for an outcome in their favor.

so, to sum it all up; this app is based on a system that uses bodyshaming and guilt to throw kids and adults alike into a vicious cycle of yo-yo weight patterns, eating disorders and hateful relationships with themselves, their bodies and their sense of selfworth. i don’t think parents who buys into this app are overall evil, but it is an obvious tool for abusive parents who uses guilt, shame, punishment and scare tactics to manipulate their children into the above mentioned unhealthy patterns, because the parents themselves are victims of the fatphobic diet culture we are living in. not to mention that the parents don’t have access to proper information themselves.

aside from that, you can also see in the notes of the original post, that there are incredibly many people, who will tell stories about how forced diet in their childhood/teen years has been a kickstart to a lifelong series of mental and physical health issues.

this app is preying on scared parents to capitalize of a beauty obsessed ideal that is completely unrealistic.

i have also written a post about nutrition here that may be of interest to anyone reading this.

i am open to any questions, and constructive criticism. other than that i just hope i have been able to explain why i believe this app is harmful, and that it has been an informative read. thank you so much for reading to the end.

Keto Diet Plan – Menu and Diet Chart for Fast Weight Loss In 14 Days

What is Keto Diet?

A ketogenic diet or keto diet, in short, is a low carb diet that offers numerous health benefits. The ketogenic diet, in fact, shares many similarities with the Atkins and low carb diets. Keto diet drastically reduces carbohydrate intake and replacing it with fat. This reduction in carbs puts your body into a metabolic state called ketosis. When this process takes place, the body becomes incredibly efficient at fat burning which produces a massive amount of energy, this also helps turn fat into ketones in the liver supplying energy to the brain.

Keto diet can help enormously in reducing the levels of blood sugar and insulin. The main reason why the keto diet is better is that you cut down on fatty carbs which are easy to digest, like sugar, soda, pastries, and white bread.

Who should not follow the Keto Diet?

As one’s eating habit changes, there are risks and safety issues one need to be mindful about. Any significant changes in the diet plan should be discussed with your doctor before starting.

Keto diet plans should be avoided by the following people.

1. Pregnant women

If you are pregnant then prolonged keto diet can be harmful. Studies have shown that prolonged maternal ketosis has an effect on the newborn affecting the brain development or increase of neural tube defects such as spina bifida. Therefore ketogenic diet is not recommended by the doctors during pregnancy.

2. Breastfeeding women

Women who are on a very low carb intake could experience a reduction in milk production. We are not saying to complete come out of the keto diet but maintain a healthy intake of carbs which you know is safe. Women who are breastfeeding can tolerate more carbs and proteins and still remain in ketosis because the macros will go in the production of milk.

3. Kidney stones/Gallstones

Ketosis can increase the urinary acidity which can lead to the promotion of uric acid and kidney stones. If you are a patient of gallstones, then eating fat will result in some gallstone pain but if you wish to follow the keto diet plan then you need to slowly introduce or onto the diet once the gallstones have been removed.

4. No gallbladder

If your gallbladder is removed then the keto diet is not for you. The gallbladder produces bile necessary to break down fats.

5. Growing Kids

Growing children should avoid the keto diet plan as studies have shown that children experience stunted growth due to inadequate protein intake. There should be a balance of macronutrients such as carbohydrates, protein and fats.

Starting a new diet is always confusing and the biggest struggle is figuring out what to cook, what all food needs to be avoided but if you have a meal plan prepared well in advance it makes dieting so much easier. So here is a 14 day Keto Diet Plan mapped out for you.

Hence it is highly advised that you consult a trained professional on how to lose weight. Here is a start, you can consult one of Truweight’s nutritionist, absolutely FREE! Ask your doubts and get solutions.

Are you not sure what to eat when you’re on a keto diet? Below is a quick guide on what to eat and avoid when you’re on a keto diet plan.

Eat

Fish and seafood especially fatty fish like salmon

Meat: Unprocessed meats are lean and keto friendly and grass-fed beef is the ultimate choice. Remember keto diet is a high-fat diet and not a high protein diet, so doesn’t indulge in an excess amount of meat.

Eggs: Eat them in any way you want! Boiled, scrambled, fried in butter, or as omelettes.

Natural high fat sauce such as Bearnaise or garlic butter, you can get a good amount of oil from natural sources like meat, fish, and eggs. You can cook your food using olive oil and coconut oil and add them in your salads etc.

Vegetables that grow above the ground and favorites include cauliflower, cabbage, avocado, broccoli, and zucchini. Many people end up eating more vegetables than before when starting keto, as veggies replacing pasta, rice, potatoes, etc.

High Fat Dairy: Butter is good, indulge in some high-fat cheese and yogurts can be moderately eaten. Avoid drinking milk but you can use it sparingly in your coffee.

Nuts and Berries: These can be eaten in moderation just to provide you energy and can be eaten as snacks.

Drink:

Water: it is undoubtedly the no 1 option, sip it like a hot tea or add flavoring agents like cucumber, lemon or limes. Drink at least 2 litres of water every day.

Coffee: Drink coffee with no sugar but a small amount of milk and cream is fine. Note: If you are trying to lose weight then cut back on the cream in your coffee.

Tea: Feel free to drink most teas whether it is green, black, mint or herbal. Don’t add sugar.

Avoid these foods if you are on a keto diet.

Sugar: A big NO to sugar! Cut down on all soft drinks, fruit juices, sports drinks. Avoid all sugary candies, sweets, cakes, cookies, donuts, frozen treats, and breakfast cereals.

Starch: Bread, pasta, rice, potatoes (including sweet potatoes), French fries, potato chips, porridge, muesli and so on. Try avoiding whole grain products too

Beer: It contains full of rapidly absorbed carbs.

Fruit: It is sweet and has natural sugar, eats them occasionally and treat them as a natural form of candy.

Margarine: An industrially produced fat with a very high content of Omega 6 fat. It has no health benefits and tastes worse than butter.

Keto diet has been making headlines as the ‘go-to diet’ but is the hype justified? Let’s dive into the pros and cons of the keto diet.

PROS:

1. Can help lose body fat:

The ketogenic diet consists of high fat, low carb, and moderate protein thus helping your body to lose fat. When we take away the body’s main source of energy which is carbohydrates, it’s forced to adapt using the body fat for fuel. In addition, eating high-fat food throughout the day can help minimize cravings and give you a feeling of satiety, ultimately helping you stay on track with the recommended daily calorie count.

2. Great way to detox from sugar:

The main factor of the keto diet is, it limits the carbs restricting it to 25-25 grams a day and most people will have to cut down on sugary foods which will be beneficial to the body.

3. Reduces Insulin levels:

Insulin is a key hormone that helps move glucose from the bloodstream to the muscle and tissues. A ketogenic diet helps to reduce insulin levels thereby help to reduce inflammation in the body.

4. Reduces Risk of Heart Disease:

Reducing the carb intake can lower blood triglycerides, which are fat molecules in the blood. If you have high levels of blood triglycerides then it puts you at a higher risk of heart disease.

CONS:

1. It can be difficult to follow:

A ketogenic diet can be hard to follow, especially because you have to measure out the portion that you need to take in a day. 70-80 percent of high fat, 10 percent carbs, and 15 percent protein at every single meal and to this on a daily basis is hard and very tiring.

2. It may not promote long term weight loss:

Though there is weight loss with the keto diet, many of us don’t lose as much weight as we hope for mainly because it is so had to adhere to the routine.

3. Many people end up eating fats that aren’t so healthy:

The upside of the plan is the increased fat intake but the downside is that many people end up eating a lot of unsaturated animal fat. In addition, a lot of people aren’t buying organic, grass-fed animal products so the quality of the food can be an issue as well. if you’re using a lot of animal-based foods for fats and proteins, try to make them organic and well-sourced whenever possible.

Don’t be afraid to try on the new diet plan. It might take some time to get used to it but if you love it then there will be good results in your way and if you don’t then you can always switch back into your normal routine. Please make sure you check with your doctor before taking up this plan whether it’s safe to go ahead with the diet.
