Foods for Overweight Children

It is important to realize that overweight and obese children do not need special foods, they simply need to eat healthy meals in portions consistent with their level of calorie expenditure. At Growing Lean, we rely on experts to determine what’s best for kids, then we design our meals to help parents and children meet their individual goals. Our foods for overweight children provide a healthy and tasty choice for your child’s needs.

Nutritious: Our meals were designed by pediatricians and nutritionists to appeal to children and teens while satisfying their nutritional needs. The controlled portions and varied menus promote good eating habits and help develop healthy tastes. Our meals are also low in fat and sodium. Nutritional information for our meals will be coming soon.
Tasty: Unless children and teens are happy with what they are eating, they will not stick to a meal program. We have designed our meals to appeal to a variety of ages and tastes. We also provide several “always available” items for those meals your child cannot or will not eat to ensure your child does not seek out less healthy alternatives. Menu coming soon.
Convenient: Growing Lean foods are delivered fresh twice a week to your doorstep. They include three meals and a snack per day, eliminating the need for you to shop or devise menus and cook to give your child healthy meals. Weekday lunches are also packaged and ready for your child to take to school.
Flexible: We have two plans to meet the needs of different ages and objectives. At your request, the plans can be further tailored by including additional snacks to make up the difference between the calories in our set plans and your child’s specific needs.
Family Dinners: Because research shows that children in families who eat together are slimmer, we encourage family meals. Therefore, Growing Lean offers you the opportunity to purchase additional delicious dinners for all members of the family.
