🌟September is National Childhood Obesity Awareness Month🌟

This month, we stand together to support children and families living with obesity. It’s a time to raise awareness, advocate for access to comprehensive care, and empower healthier futures for every child. 💙

Our ongoing commitments this month (and every month):

✅ Educate & Empower Families – Share evidence-based tools and resources to encourage healthy growth and development.
✅ Advocate for Access to Care – Every child deserves the full range of treatment options, personalized to their needs and provided with empathy.
✅ Promote Equity & Reduce Stigma – Obesity is a chronic disease, not a child’s fault. We commit to compassionate care, eliminating bias, and addressing disparities that hold kids back.
✅ Support Providers & Communities – Partnering with healthcare teams and local communities to build sustainable solutions.

Together, we can raise awareness, reduce stigma, and create brighter, healthier futures for our children. 💪✨

Obesity isn’t always about “eating too much” or “not moving enough.”
For many kids, genetics play a powerful role.

🚼 Babies born large for their gestational age
📈 Kids always at the top of the growth chart
⏳ Rapid or abnormal weight gain during preschool years

If you’ve noticed one of your children struggling with abnormal weight gain while their siblings grow typically — genetics could be the reason.

❌ The “watch and wait” approach is no longer acceptable.
✅ Families deserve answers, education, and treatment options as early as possible.

At RISE Pediatrics, we believe every child deserves the chance to feel good in their body and thrive. We’re here to educate, guide, and partner with families in creating healthier futures for their children.

Your child’s healthier future can start today — and we’d be honored to be part of the journey

🌟 Parents, does this sound familiar?

Your kiddo has always been at the top of the growth chart. You were told, “that’s just how they’re built.” But then COVID happened. Sports stopped, routines changed, screen time went up, and snacking became a comfort.

Fast forward a couple years and suddenly their weight has jumped higher than you expected. Now you’re left wondering…
➡️ Is this just a phase?
➡️ Should I say something to them, or will it hurt their feelings?
➡️ How do we even begin to make changes without constant battles?

If this feels like your story—you are NOT alone. So many families are in the exact same boat right now. 💙

At RISE Pediatrics, I work with kids and families to take the stress out of this process. Together we focus on small, realistic changes that actually fit your life, build confidence in your child, and help them feel good in their body again.

You don’t have to figure it all out on your own. If you’re ready for some support, send me a message—I’d love to help.

👉 What’s been your family’s biggest struggle since COVID—screen time, food, or routine?
