Is there an online weight loss community for kids / tween?
My daughter is finally interested in losing some weight and I am so proud of her. She is 10. There are many online groups for adults losing weight – Sparkpeople, Realage, weightwatchers.com etc. Does anyone know of any groups just for kids? I think she would really enjoy talking with other kids going through the same thing – and motivational stories about other kids , tips. etc would probably help her to stay on track and be inspired. Thanks!
Well YES there is….There is SparkTeens! You can check it out here:
