I feel guilty
A couple months ago I took my 13 yr old son to the doctor for a check up. The doctor told me he is under weight, but I don't consider 112lb to be dangerously thin. He told me I needed to make my son gain weight, it would be the best thing for him health wise, so hearing that I agree. Because any father would want the best for his children. I started feeding him fattening food telling him to eat everything on his plate or he won't leave the dinner table. The usual things. He started to get lazier, he's on the football team at his elementary school so the weight melted off. Then he started not going to practice I had to deal with the coach telling me about the importance of practicing. He started to get a slight bulge in his midsection unnoticeable really. A couple weeks later the bulge turned into a two months pregnant looking belly. He stopped wearing pants or shorts that had buttons or zippers, he just wore sweat pants. He quit the football team and thats when the laziness settled in. He barely went outside with his friends, never played sports. All his shirts got tight and showed the outlines of his bulging stomachs. His thighs got thicker. After three months he stopped going outside unless I couldn't drive him to and from school, I had to buy him new clothes. He went from 112lbs to 124lbs in three months. I told the doctor and he said to keep feeding him until he gets to 150lbs which I found odd but you know doctor's orders. He got greedy when eating often taking plate full's not leaving enough for his sister who is his same age and kept making fun of him. His belly started looking like it was four months pregnant, his arms were flabby his thighs thick and his entire body just got fattened day by day. I only ordered out food because it was the most fattening. He reached 132lbs so I decided to stop feeding him so much food,but he kept eating large quantities of food. After a few weeks the doctor said it was okay for him to stop gaining weight. I just feel horrible I took my slim fit and athletic son and turned him into a fat lazy slob. He continues to gain weight and eats bigger quantities of food. Should I feel guilty? I've been trying to get him to lose weight but it's impossible any advice?
Nice to see your still feeding your growing boy
We've both gained a lot of weight. I gave up trying to make us eat better for a while. Now we have to deal with the consequences
Well you can’t moan about his weight gain if you’ve become a right fatty yourself
I wrote this post 4 plus years ago. I was thin at the time. Covid and working from home didn't help either of us.
Piggy needs to go for a walk
I try but he's not interested
I have a feeling your son is huge. A fat boy
What's the status of tubby?
Is he still a little fatty?
Little is not the word I'd use at all. He's well into the morbidly obese category
Gonna have to wash your boy with a rag on a stick soon
I'm afraid it's close already
It's a shame really. Has he lost any of the weight or changed? I'm sure it was tough with during the pandemic. Reach out if you need anything
No. Unfortunately he has only gained alot more weight since this post. The pandemic only made his weight sky rocket even more.
How much weight he gained?
I'd rather not say but it was significant
Is he still fattening up?
That doctor is a quack and you should file a complaint with the licensing board in your state. Try to get your son into healthy eating again.
He need to eat a proper diet. Not fattening foods. You gain weight on good protein, starches, and vegetables. Not sugary, greasy processed food.
You need a different doctor.
Weight is interesting.
I starve my long term gf. I like her skinny. Each day she has to weigh herself and text me her weight. She hasn't had a period in a couple of years..
I remember you. Still an idiot I see.
I'd love to meet
You haven't read got a girlfriend though, have you
