My daughter is obese. Can obesity be fixed?

Greetings,

If obesity is genetic in your family, you may not be able to "fix" it. However, to eliminate excess weight gain, you can incorporate more fruits, veggies, water, no added sugar, 30 minutes to an hour of daily walks, or exercise. Also, you may want to cut back on heavy starches and not eat a full meal before bed. Meditation is also great for becoming one with your body t be able to change your eating habits. I hope this helps.
