Beyond the Numbers: Pediatric Obesity Toolkit

The goal of this toolkit is to provide guidance for the evaluation and management of school-aged children and adolescents with overweight and obesity using a lifestyle medicine approach. This model acknowledges the complexity of obesity and tailors the approach to habit formation based on readiness to change or “meeting patients where they are.” The synergy of the lifestyle interventions allows providers to approach this common chronic disease in a way that directly connects to patient and family priorities. Included from the authors are favorite office tools and resources to make your job a little easier. Feel free to tailor these resources to your setting. We encourage you to be curious about which pieces are most feasible in your office setting to best serve your patients and their families. Thank you for being a champion for children!
