The physical aspect of a person has a great effect on his or her life, it doesn't apply to everyone, and I can't say it in general, but it is my own opinion. I always think of the young ones, the children, specifically, the overweight and obese. It is a fact that most of the obese or overweight kids are the ones that are picked on at school and it has great effect on them, as time pass, more and more cases have been reported to be verbally abused at school. Kids may develop fear on going to school, riding on a bus, using the bathroom or just simply being alone. The anxiety and the fear that the child feels can make it very difficult for him/her to focus in school or engage in any conversation. Bullying may also lead to suicidal thoughts. As a parent, it is our responsibility to help our children, talk to them, let them feel that they are protected and safe, help them clear their thoughts, and even help them to lose weight. So I wrote this blog to share what I've discovered with regards to helping a child how to lose weight. The Mini Gastric No-Surgery Formula by Roca Labs.
I am a mother, and my first priority is my family. I work as a primary school teacher and trying as hard as I can to be a full time mother as well. I have a wonderful 11 year old son(will soon be turning 12 on December 10) and he is currently home-schooled because I found out that he was bullied at school last year, and to be specific, it was because of his body image. Just so you know my son's height is 5'1'' and weight is 142 pounds, asthmatic. I talk to him as often as I can and go to his level of
thinking so he will feel comfortable telling me things. Then he will
feel more safer and will be able to vent out his feelings. Talking and
listening to your children is a very effective intervention.
My son's situation and health bothers me. I am not only thinking at the present, but I am thinking of his future as well. I told my husband about this and he said "...let's help our son to lose weight...", I couldn't agree more. I told my son about this, explained to him the positive effect of losing weight on every aspect of his life, glad that he agreed to do it. I did some research on how to help your child lose weight in a natural and healthy manner, a way where he doesn't suffer on getting hungry all day, avoiding tons of food, because I know my son will surely give up if I will do it that way. It ain't easy! While researching online, I accidentally stumbled upon this, Mini Gastric Bypass no-surgery Formula by Roca Labs. I read almost everything on their website, went on to their Live Chat, asked tons of questions, found some Roca Labs review, and I thought, Oh no, this is too good to be true. The product that they are selling has a variety of formula versions, for men, to those who have diabetes, children, and even pregnant women too. The one whom I chatted with says that you can lose up to 15 pounds in a month without counting on calories, diet restrictions, exercising, etc. The company sent me a list of ingredients as promised and showed it to my son's doctor after a few days. I had the doctor's approval to try this formula since my son only has asthma and told me the formula (based on the ingredients) won't harm or trigger my son's asthma.
| My son is on his first week now with Roca Labs formula. He needs to lose approximately 30-40 pounds. So far so good, but he did complain of diarrhea the other day (June 3), I lowered his dose the next day as advised by the representative who called me, and good thing his bowel problem disappeared. After that day I haven't heard any complaints from him. Though taking the formula doesn't require exercise and diet, I still encourage my son to stroll the dogs with me during my day off, or instead of using the car, we walk since it only takes around 15 minutes to reach the grocery store when we want to buy a few things. And as for me, I became more aware of everything my family eats. I cook healthier foods, I always buy fruits, more veggies served during meal. Good thing my boys aren't picky eaters. Please do leave a comment if you have any suggestions. I will be updating my son's status and measurements on this blog from time to time. | |||
My son has always been chubby and is being bullied at school.....I need to help him so badly I am considering trying this Roca Labs thing...
ReplyDeleteIs this really safe? Tell it to me as a mother.
ReplyDeletewow...this is a very serious problem! i hope your child is doing great!
ReplyDeleteWhat percentage can you give that its safe for children?
ReplyDeleteThis is very interesting. I need to look for more information about this.
ReplyDeleteHow does your son do now so far?
ReplyDeleteI definitely know how it affects a child's self esteem if he or she is overweight. Wish we had something like this when I was a child. It would certainly have saved me from all the bullying I experienced being overweight.
ReplyDeleteI can hardly see the comments(too small fonts). Sorry. But, I want to know any updates so that I can check if this fits my son. I don't want him to have gastric bypass surgery. It this alternative works -- I will take chances.
ReplyDeleteI will try Roca Labs for my child. Hopefully this can help her.
ReplyDeleteHow to increase the size of the font? I can't read the comments. Sorry.
ReplyDeleteI didn't know that Roca Labs works for kids and safe. I think I'll recommend it to my niece. It's better to have him loose weight now before he eats more up to adulthood. LOL!
ReplyDeleteHow much weight loss is healthy for a kid?
ReplyDeletePlease increase the size of the font. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteIf Roca Labs is safe for kids, it may mean it is more safe for adult; but does it work fast with adults, too?
