Have you ever thought about what’s actually going on when a child is dealing with obesity not just physically, but emotionally and socially too?

In this episode, we’re getting into pediatric obesity and all the layers that people don’t always see. Like, it’s really not just about eating too much or not getting enough movement. There’s way more to it.

I’m chatting with Dr. Lisa Tritto, a board-certified pediatrician and obesity specialist at Evora for Kids in St. Louis, Missouri. She’s been in general pediatrics for over 20 years and even did a full-year fellowship in pediatric obesity at the University of Minnesota. And honestly, not many clinicians have done that.

We talk about what really shapes pediatric obesity, how doctors track and treat it, the meds that are usually used, and how to actually give helpful nutrition advice without making kids feel bad. We also get into how to talk to kids about weight in a way that supports their relationship with food and keeps their self-esteem intact.

So yeah, if you want to understand this better and learn how to really support kids going through it, go check out the full episode.
