my son is 15 years old is morbidly obese (he is 5’7" and weighs 366 pounds). he has always been a skinny, active kid growing up. he started dramatically gaining weight when he was around 11 years old. i know its my fault he is over 300 pounds, and i feel even worse that we let it happen when both my husband and i are thin, but instead of dwelling on the past im going to into the future. so i decided he needs to change so i started only cooking healthy meals, i removed all the junk food, in our home, put the parental lock on the TV and bought him a treadmill and told him he has to run on the treadmill one hour everyday and i would weigh him every week to see his progress. when the month started he was 330 pounds and like i said now hes 366 pounds. i was appauled he gained 36 pounds in a month. i asked him if he was cheating on his diet or not doing his excersizes, but he told me he was doing them and doesn’t know why hes gaining weight. a few days ago i decided i would go home for my lunch break and when i got home i saw my son was sleeping and there was 3 XL pizza boxes, 4 big mac boxes and a bag of dorritos around him. i came too late cause he had finished everything. i woke him up and asked what were the food came from, and he confessed that for the past month his father had been buying multiple amounts of fast food everyday. i got in to an argument with my husband on why he was giving him food and he felt bad that i was putting him on a diet so he bought him junk food he even had the nerve to say "i decided to feed him good food not that health crap you give him and what are you mad about its not like im giving him drugs". i asked my son if he himself wanted to lose weight and he just replied " i really dont care, im happy with who i am, im getting good grades, i have a girl friend, and my life is going fine, the only reason why i am doing this cause your making me." iv tried to motivate my son in every way to lose weight but nothing has worked. iv even used his GF as an example to motivate him. she used to be obese herself, but last time i saw her she looked thin and she told me she had been dieting and excersizing and had lost 50 pounds, i complimented her on how good she looked and was telling my son that he should have lose weight with her. i love my son with all my heart and im really worried about him and i just want what is best for him, but i cant make him lose weight he needs to want to also. how can i motivate him.
