As a parent, you may feel as if your world has been turned upside down when your child is diagnosed with diabetes. With knowledge, determination, and diligent medical care, your child with diabetes should be able to lead a healthy, active, and happy life. Apart from medical issues, one of the hardest things for families to deal with is also one of the most common daily experiences - eating. It is hard enough to prepare meals for picky eaters, but throw diabetes into the mix, and the picture becomes much more complicated. Food should also be creative and fun for kids. Having diabetes doesn't mean your child should settle for boring, bland food. The recipes in this book are easy to prepare, using common ingredients. Most importantly, they are "kid tested" and geared particularly to kids tastes. And there's no need for separate meals since these recipes were tested among children with diabetes - as well as those without - and it was unanimous: The food was tasty for everyone!

Did you know that all around the world, more people are overweight than ever before in the Earth's history? This is partly because of the way we eat, partly because of the way we live, and it's also partly because of the types of bodies our parents passed on to us. A long time ago, children and grownups were active every day, just doing all the jobs that needed to be done to stay alive. Food was sometimes scarce, and so people who could store fat were more likely to stay alive. Today, though, grownups and children don't move around nearly as much as they once did. Food is almost always plentiful. And our bodies' ability to store weight now means that we easily become overweight. It's a complicated problem!

We don't move around as much today as people did even thirty years ago. Many grownups have jobs where they sit at desks all day. Kids go to school, where they sit at desks for most of the day, too. And then in the evenings, grownups and kids come home and sit some more. They turn on the television. They sit down in front of their computers. And they don't get enough exercise. This means that people often don't use the calories they eat. Instead, the extra calories get stored as fat. That's part of the reason why so many people in the world are overweight today. What's the answer? It's simple—get moving!

More and more kids who are overweight are getting sick too. Being overweight is a health risk. That's why you need to take action—and this book will tell you how.
