Keep it up buddy! I wasn't obese as a kid but I was slightly overweight and on my way to obesity if I didn't change fast. I then joined a swim team and within 6 years swam nationals. Hearing about people succeeding in their weight loss and becoming healthier individuals genuinely warms my heart. I know how hard it was as a kid being ridiculed and made fun of because of my weight and no kid should have to go through something like that.
In my opinion, feeding children high-sugar and fat products and lacking more nutritious foods is a form of cruelty because that boy is going to get alot of medical problems and possibly get a stroke or a heart attack which is killing off the newer generation of human beings. That father is off his head on something thinking that children need alot of fattening and unhealthy foods to develop a growing child! I see that family is overweight but the mother is thinking realisticly and doing everything she can to keep her son healthy and happy.
Yea I agree,this is a dangerous lifestyle. And I know,I myself am obese but have lost 40 pounds this year,and have been overweight since I was about 7 or 8 and I'm 32 now. I used to sneak food all the time and did for years and would blame my sister. It's something I now have to fight with for the rest of my life. If the father doesn't fix this now it will get worse. Not that I can blame my parents now as an adult in my choices,but I sure wish they fixed it when I was younger
Mom needs to say "who pays the bills around here?" She's paying for the food, so she might as well decide what she buys. He wants junk food? Too bad! Buy healthy stuff, and if he won't eat it......well he will when he gets hungry!
I always thought that me as a 15 year old weighing 220 pounds was alot but a 4 year ol at 187 pounds thats terrible. I do have a weight problem but its under controll
I use to be an overweight teenager, but then I went to colombia and lost over 34lb. After that, I made sure to keep the weight off and I lost an extra 20lb in a year. Now I still have the occasional soda on the weekend but I know there should be limits and that's what these kids need.
The most disturbing thing about children becoming obese at this young age is that it's very possible they will struggle with it for the rest of their life.... The extra fat cells they have accumulated never disappear on their own...they only shrink and so it's very easy to gain back weight that has been lost. That being said, I think there is a huge difference between obesity and being a little overweight. Eating healthy is the most important thing....
@daisy752 I agree...funny thing is... if a skinny cute girl is eating pizza we don't think negative..but we will if someone is huge. (I am in fault of that) You are right--We are so blessed to have a rich lifestyle in this country/ it would be good no matter the appearance, to treasure that fact and eat better
i happen to like cooking and i do not have a strong sweet tooth (except for the occasional frozen treat). I am twenty and about 90 percent of the time i eat at home. I agree with you, parents need to take out the junk and put in the good. I have lived in homes where you ate inside and homes with damn junk! I can easily say from experience you can taste the damn difference! I love home cooking, when i cook i know what is in there, I know what my body is getting.
I disagree with one of the things they said. Babies (until they start walking) are very often fat and that's a sign of health. My brother and I were huge bubs. But we were breast fed and were fed only health foods (I don't think we ever had sweets or soft drinks in our house until we were late teenagers), and we were very active... so naturally once we started walking, we lost our baby weight.
See that's the problem with Americans when it comes to obesity. Some Americans think that there are no health benefits to maintaining a healthy weight! How many textbooks, news articles, magazines, etc. does it take to drill into these people's heads that MAINTAINING A HEALTHY WEIGHT ELIMINATES MANY POTENTIAL HEALTH PROBLEMS!
What I don't understand is - how can parents do that to their children? They're the ones in charge when the kid is 2,3,4.. years old - is it that hard to say "no", especially if you can see that your kid's health is at risk? If you let your 3 year old control you - imagine what it's like when that kid becomes a teenager... Seriously, my whole family is overweight... Hell, I have some weight issues too - but wow... o_O The 2 year old weighs as much as I did when I was 11 or 12
I blame it on all the fast food places. they decide to make bigger meals and burgers like when i whent to a hotdog vender( for the first time)he asked if i wanted a super dog or a regular, so i asked to see the size and i didn't want didn't buy any. becouse they were both over a half pound of beef, anyway, thsize of them.... i believe the regular was 2 hot dogs put together and the super dog was 4 hot dogs together!
I am noticing that these kids are not being kids such as going outside running around playing or playing inside and running around. My daughter can eat anything and she plays and runs she is a kid. She is healthy and happy. It is the parents that is responsible for the children. We do not eat junk food everyday, some days we do but it is a treat for her. we have healthy food, etc. I am overweight but I am exercising and eating right to lose the weight.
I overfed my son as a baby. I gave him bottle after bottle of breast milk mixed with rice. By the time he was three months old, he had tripled his weight, and I was told he was too heavy and that he would be obese his whole life. He's 18 now, is 5'4, and weighs 100lbs. He is muscling up, but is otherwise is a beanpole. I don't think too much stock should be placed on the future of fat babies.
Experts say that the number of fat cells are determined during adolcense so the fatter you are as a child the more fat cells you'll have as a teenager and a adult unless you put an end to that before it accumulates and gets out of hand.
i agree with felicio.... Stop killing your kids...That father does not know he himself is healthy and if he waits for his kid to get older to decide what to do..that kid is gonna be in a mess. What the father does not understand is the rate the kids are going, they may not make it to 'older'.. There's a reason why kids have parents.
i was obese it takes dedication and time to lose it plus im wonderin y child protection service nvr came even tho i was 190 aroun 10... (im 165 and im 16 i still got ways to go!)
It's so sad how that father is feeding his kids crap just because he has no willpower to stop himself from eating crap. I'm not saying this to fat people in general, but it seems like some of them are trying to make skinny people as fat as they are! I went to a birthday party and the mother of the girl was rather overweight. She was practically attempting to stuff brownies down my throat while gobbling an ice cream cone. Gross!
Dad is right...the "diet stuff" is really bad for ya...but being lazy and just getting sugar taste lol-- same problem. What's the hard thing to admit is the family needs to work together. It is so ugly that society encourages a healthy diet for a kid/ adult who shows in the pounds.... but a skinny kid/adult we don't judge or view their diet. Being big is not a problem..it's what and how an individual's body got there
I Really hate that the government is taking the kids away from parents because their too overweight. I Know they shouldn't be that heavy, but it's wrong to be like, "Woop, your child is too fat, we gonna take him away!"
Kaile Brogan From CZcams...just defending you against Israel Pacheco who doesn't know what he's talking about! I'm tired of these nutjobs coming out of the woodwork!
Wow, so what if the kid cry like hell. DONT GIVE HIM THE FOOD. And he'll get used to it. i'm 15 and i don't even weigh 187... wow !!! I weigh 121.3 lb & i'm 15 !!!!
Phil's big, but definitely not obese.
Starving a kid is evil, but fattening them up is equally sinister!
"it's not bad to be overweight"
Yeah, it's not bad to have have a heart attack at 20.
That man is crazy for thinking the boy's weight is not killing him, and the mother needs to take a look at her damn self.
Keep it up buddy! I wasn't obese as a kid but I was slightly overweight and on my way to obesity if I didn't change fast. I then joined a swim team and within 6 years swam nationals. Hearing about people succeeding in their weight loss and becoming healthier individuals genuinely warms my heart.

3:16
"I think diet foods have a tendency to be not as nutritious for a growing kid"
WTF... some people are so misguided that its not even funny
Dr Phil is not fat! He has a strong built that suits his height! He is 6'4'!!
In my opinion, feeding children high-sugar and fat products and lacking more nutritious foods is a form of cruelty because that boy is going to get alot of medical problems and possibly get a stroke or a heart attack which is killing off the newer generation of human beings.
That father is off his head on something thinking that children need alot of fattening and unhealthy foods to develop a growing child! I see that family is overweight but the mother is thinking realisticly and doing everything she can to keep her son healthy and happy.
187 pounds! HOLY SHIT! That's just child abuse. I can't even wrap my head around it. He weighed more than I do!
00:10 No! I want pizza rolls!
Yea I agree,this is a dangerous lifestyle. And I know,I myself am obese but have lost 40 pounds this year,and have been overweight since I was about 7 or 8 and I'm 32 now. I used to sneak food all the time and did for years and would blame my sister. It's something I now have to fight with for the rest of my life. If the father doesn't fix this now it will get worse. Not that I can blame my parents now as an adult in my choices,but I sure wish they fixed it when I was younger
The kid says "I only want pizza rolls!"
Mom needs to say "who pays the bills around here?"
She's paying for the food, so she might as well decide what she buys. He wants junk food? Too bad! Buy healthy stuff, and if he won't eat it......well he will when he gets hungry!
Both parents are overweight, therefore the kids are at a disadvantage! Sad really!!!!!!'!
Now we have obese models promoting obesity
No acatually I am NOT a fat baby and my parents are fat I am actually 18 and fat so I'm not a baby so fuck off iodiot silly
Plus size models would be like , there fine
WHOOO DR PHILL!!!
At least the mother cares, the father is so infuriatingly ignorant and abusive.
where can i see the whole show?!
I always thought that me as a 15 year old weighing 220 pounds was alot but a 4 year ol at 187 pounds thats terrible. I do have a weight problem but its under controll
the father sounds lkie someone you would find in a dream/nightmare . he doesn't seem like someone you would meet in real life
When a 4 year old weighs more than me (I'm 160 pounds) it makes me feel skinny
pizza rolls... *drool* *slobber*
I use to be an overweight teenager, but then I went to colombia and lost over 34lb. After that, I made sure to keep the weight off and I lost an extra 20lb in a year. Now I still have the occasional soda on the weekend but I know there should be limits and that's what these kids need.
love you phil!
The mum is critising his husband for his sons overweight issue. What makes her think she can talk with her size?
GOD Bless them w Understandin of the situation before its too late..
It's very easy to see that both the father&mother has no notion of what's healthy and need to know better if not for themselves then for their kids.
The most disturbing thing about children becoming obese at this young age is that it's very possible they will struggle with it for the rest of their life.... The extra fat cells they have accumulated never disappear on their own...they only shrink and so it's very easy to gain back weight that has been lost. That being said, I think there is a huge difference between obesity and being a little overweight. Eating healthy is the most important thing....
YES!!
Yeah, lookin at that kid, more like a chinese cuisine buffet. XD
he's like...70.8 pounds heavier than me
Way up there!
those parents should change their own eating habits first
I WANT PIZZA ROLLS!!
That one mother blaming the father when she is very overweight too...If he doesn't get healthy food you ask for go to the store yourself...
@daisy752
I agree...funny thing is...
if a skinny cute girl is eating pizza we don't think negative..but we will if someone is huge.
(I am in fault of that)
You are right--We are so blessed to have a rich lifestyle in this country/ it would be good no matter the appearance, to treasure that fact and eat better

I can easily say from experience you can taste the damn difference! I love home cooking, when i cook i know what is in there, I know what my body is getting.
The rule in my house is if you are not hungry enough to eat a piece of fruit....you are not hungry.
ugh.. I don't anymore.
I disagree with one of the things they said. Babies (until they start walking) are very often fat and that's a sign of health. My brother and I were huge bubs. But we were breast fed and were fed only health foods (I don't think we ever had sweets or soft drinks in our house until we were late teenagers), and we were very active... so naturally once we started walking, we lost our baby weight.
He says the diet food isn't healthy for him but all the crap he's feeding him is healthy??? smh!
the father´s attitude shocks me. Ofcourse it´s serious.
Society has got it the wrong way round
See that's the problem with Americans when it comes to obesity. Some Americans think that there are no health benefits to maintaining a healthy weight! How many textbooks, news articles, magazines, etc. does it take to drill into these people's heads that MAINTAINING A HEALTHY WEIGHT ELIMINATES MANY POTENTIAL HEALTH PROBLEMS!
That dad is sick...at least the mom is trying...
When the parents who are the smart ones reject obesity as a problem and a health risk what do you expect?
Its disgusting that over half the world is starving while the other half is being grossly overfed. The world is so fucked up.
What I don't understand is - how can parents do that to their children? They're the ones in charge when the kid is 2,3,4.. years old - is it that hard to say "no", especially if you can see that your kid's health is at risk?

they decide to make bigger meals and burgers
like
when i whent to a hotdog vender( for the first time)he asked if i wanted a super dog or a regular, so i asked to see the size and i didn't want didn't buy any.
becouse they were both over a half pound of beef, anyway, thsize of them.... i believe the regular was 2 hot dogs put together and the super dog was 4 hot dogs together!
im 5'6 12 years old 175lbs and i dont look fat at all, 152 for a 7 year old is alot but not crazy

Ya but there's more and more stories on huge babies that turn in huger childern and that's not ok.
Will I'm 12 years old ,and my weight is 104 ,and I really afraid when I grow up how do I look like and I hope if I wont die young and old.
holy crap! that father is abusing his children! save those poor kids before they get extreme health problems!
Hope you have healthinsurance, considering the heart attack he's going to have at age 15...
I'm 17 5 ft 6 and weigh 167 lbs
i used to be as big as that kid when i was seven i lost most of it cause i got very tall
I am pretty chubby myself, and even though i like junk food, i love fruits and veggies more.
Wow....this is so sad...it's really tantamount to child abuse...poor kids start off in the negative.
maybe i did maybe i didn't
True
dude the little kid weights 70 lbs more than me and I am 21
Around 84kg
That 4 year old weighs more than me and im almost 6 foot
i know! so sad. wanna be friends since we're near the same age? btw, pandas do rock.
Experts say that the number of fat cells are determined during adolcense so the fatter you are as a child the more fat cells you'll have as a teenager and a adult unless you put an end to that before it accumulates and gets out of hand.
That father is a massive, massive tool!
these parents are sadistic
There's a difference.. it's okay to be slightly plump but not morbidly obese. That father should know better.
Omg that 4 year old weighs more than me
I'm 13 and I weigh 157 pounds I thought I was unhealthy
i agree with felicio.... Stop killing your kids...That father does not know he himself is healthy and if he waits for his kid to get older to decide what to do..that kid is gonna be in a mess. What the father does not understand is the rate the kids are going, they may not make it to 'older'..
There's a reason why kids have parents.
when i have kids (after marrage of course) i will see to it that they never become over weight.
@Cjaz84 That's the rule in my house too! Wow our parents have sense but that kid's parents obviously don't.
he weighs almost twice as much as me, and i'm 18!!
Too bad more people don't have parents like yours.
187 pounds is like a regular 30 yr old male! lol!!
@lolnumpty I totally agree with what you're saying!
I’m sticking with rayanch 😂
this is just so sad...
i was obese it takes dedication and time to lose it plus im wonderin y child protection service nvr came even tho i was 190 aroun 10... (im 165 and im 16 i still got ways to go!)
i want pizza rolls!
Lol that's what too much Ben&Jerry's and little to no exercise will do to you.
The boy's mom is a very fat nurse
@MrWaterman080 That kind of goes without saying genius...
that could possibly be muscle if ur in a football league. =D
i'm watching this...eating a cupcake. oops
the indian baby weighs more then me and i am 12
Seems like these kids just take after their parents, who themselves are in just as bad shape.
Why feed the fatty when theres need to feed the needy!?
It's so sad how that father is feeding his kids crap just because he has no willpower to stop himself from eating crap. I'm not saying this to fat people in general, but it seems like some of them are trying to make skinny people as fat as they are! I went to a birthday party and the mother of the girl was rather overweight. She was practically attempting to stuff brownies down my throat while gobbling an ice cream cone. Gross!

What's the hard thing to admit is the family needs to work together.
It is so ugly that society encourages a healthy diet for a kid/ adult who shows in the pounds.... but a skinny kid/adult we don't judge or view their diet.
Being big is not a problem..it's what and how an individual's body got there
I Really hate that the government is taking the kids away from parents because their too overweight. I Know they shouldn't be that heavy, but it's wrong to be like, "Woop, your child is too fat, we gonna take him away!"
omg if this is what ben and jerry's will do to me...im not eating that shit no more!

Kaile Brogan From CZcams...just defending you against Israel Pacheco who doesn't know what he's talking about! I'm tired of these nutjobs coming out of the woodwork!
Wow, so what if the kid cry like hell. DONT GIVE HIM THE FOOD. And he'll get used to it. i'm 15 and i don't even weigh 187... wow !!! I weigh 121.3 lb & i'm 15 !!!!
This father has a weak mindset and was brainwashed by the food advertising they show on tv and is seriously under minded.
