Book Description

Seven Steps To Get Your Child's Weight On Track. Includes The PariPlan book and companion CD with printable activity sheets, action plans and tips.

If your child is overweight and you want to do something about it, the PariPlan was designed for you. Forget about placing your child on a diet, forget about structured exercise, forget about programs crafted by practitioners who have never dealt with an overweight child in their own family. The PariPlan (pear-ee) was developed by Lisa Alexander, a busy mother who has transformed her own child and her entire family through this proven approach to lifestyle change.

The PariPlan provides you with all the tools you need to get your child's weight on track. The master guide book lays out a concise plan. The companion CD-ROM contains simple software tools, activity sheets and printable tips, menu ideas and action items to support the book. You will be educated and inspired by Lisa Alexander's story and her clear, common sense approach. In fact, Pediatrician Dr. Donald L. Meyer was so impressed with The PariPlan, he contributed the foreward to the PariPlan book.

Part One of the PariPlan lays the foundation for positive change. Part Two gives you seven steps that will lead you to success. Part Three provides tools and tips that will help make it easy to implement and maintain. Because The PariPlan was designed by a busy working mother, the entire focus is to help families break through their own busy schedules and create positive changes for their children.

Are you ready to embark on a lifestyle plan that will get your child's weight on track?

5.0 out of 5 stars This Plan Really Makes Sense!, February 8, 2005
By 
This review is from: The PariPlan (Paperback)
I found this book extremely helpful and very encouraging. The author's personal story is one every mother can relate to and admire. I have read many books to try and help my overweight child, but I have always felt as though he was being isolated and deprived. The difference with this book is that it emphasizes the participation of the whole family to work together as a team toward the goal of better nutrition and physical fitness. This makes a lot of sense to me and has been great for our family. The CD and printable tools are very informative easy to use. There were a few quirks using it on my Mac system, but they seem to be fixed now. I think the printable shopping lists are the greatest! Thank you Mrs. Alexander for telling your story and developing this much needed program.

5.0 out of 5 stars Finally, something that works!, February 28, 2005
This review is from: The PariPlan (Paperback)
I've been struggling with this issue with my 12-year-old son for a couple of years. Trying different techniques and always feeling frustrated that he didn't take ownership of his weight problem. What a wake up call it was to understand that it was me who was unwilling to take owneship for my part. When you read this book you can't help but be inspired and motivated to make the changes in your own behavior that will truely help your child. My son has lost nearly 10 lbs and the comments from his coaches and team mates this year in Little League have completely changed his perception and attitude about himself. As a parent, you just want your child to be happy. To see his self esteem soar has been amazing. If you've tried diets, programs, or tactics to get your kid to change, you need to read this book to understand how YOU must change.
