There are toddlers of two years old receiving treatment for obesity.
In the papers today it said that one child being treated in Gwent in Wales weighs
2 stone 9 lbs ( 16kg) , and that the average weight of a two year old should be 1 stone and 12 lbs ie 12 kg.
What a frightening thought. These children end up moving less and type 2 diabetes is
now being diagnosed in children under 10.
Of course if they could all join a group like BackFlip Performers they would learn to have fun and enjoy moving around. Even a little bit of exercise would be good - and of course eating more healthy food, too.
But moving around gets the endorphins going and the feel good comes from natural healthy stuff not junk food or TV.

X Factor Alex loses weight naturally
Did you watch X Factor?
It seems that Alex Byrne who won singing "Hallejuh" went from a size 12 to size 8
over the five months that it took to film the show.
She is reported as saying that she just lost the weight naturally. I am sure
knowing you were going to be filmed for TV would help you be
more conscious of how you look. It is great to know that she didn't
go on any crash diets.

Obesity
Did you know that half the adults in Britain today are either overweight or obese?
It seems incredible but that is the finding from the goverment. And now it seems that children are getting fatter and fatter. Nearly 17% of children from 2 - 10 are now obese... compared with
roughly 10% who were obese in 1995.
It is really worrying because the chances of fatter children becoming obese adults are much much higher.
At Katie Cannon we are on a mission to help everyone control their weight with exercise and gymnastics, and feel so full of energy and confidence they don't feed on comfort and junk food.

BackFlip Performers - New Term
The new term at BackFlip Performers is off to a great start!
We have 8 new children who have joined us this term, and already they are settling in well.
In fact one new boy, aged 6, told his mother that he liked the way we do things,
and that we can have a laugh!
That is so great, because it is the mixture of fun and discipline that
is so important in gymnastics.
Katie knows as a 5 times Aerobics Gymnastics Champion that
discipline is needed to really get anywhere in life but it has got to be fun and enjoyable..
for kids and adults alike!
