About the book:
Who's the New Kid? (Tyndale, May 2015)

Who's the New Kid? shows readers how Heidi helped her daughter lose weight without the aid of fad diets, medication, or surgery and how other parents can do the same with their kids.

At nine years old, Breanna Bond weighed a whopping 186 pounds. Just walking up the stairs to her room was a challenge. Her legs chafed to the point of bleeding from rubbing against each other, and her school days were filled with taunts of "Hey, Fatty!" Breanna's mom, Heidi, was devastated and wondered, How can I get my daughter healthy again?

In just over a year, Heidi's plan worked! Breanna dropped 40 percent of her body weight and was transformed from a morbidly obese child who spent her days in front of the TV eating chips and chocolate to a vibrant, healthy, energetic little girl.

Filled with helpful diagnostic tools, easy-to-make recipes, eye-opening nutritional information, fun exercise ideas, and practical tips and advice, Who's the New Kid? will not only show parents how to help their kids lose weight naturally but also introduce them to simple, yet effective lifestyle changes that will benefit the entire family.

My Review:
Childhood obesity is an issue in today's society and Heidi shares her story about how she addressed and overcame this issue in her family in her book, "Who's the New Kid?"  This is a great resource for families struggling with this issue as well.  Heidi loved to cook and she and her husband did not really think about the food they were eating, just if it tasted good or not.  After Breanna was born and began eating regular food, Heidi was thrilled that she enjoyed eating and was not a picky eater as children can be.  However, when Breanna was being teased at the age of three, concerns began.  Heidi shares her struggles and also how she was able to tackle this issue head on and how the whole family made lifestyle changes successfully.  There are so many pieces to this as there is the emotional component,  in addition to making an effort to live a physically active life and make healthy eating choices.  Heidi includes a complete eating plan for 40 days and also recipes that the family loves and are also healthy.  One tip that is a great one is to keep a food diary as this makes you really aware of what exactly you are eating, and also helps you to think twice.  Thanks to Heidi and Breanna for sharing their story in order to help other children and families.
