Preventing Childhood Obesity

The TODAY Show aired a segment on "Preventing Childhood Obesity" today with Dr. Jennifer Trachtenberg; author of "GOOD KIDS - BAD HABITS".   Studies indicate that obesity can begin as early as infancy.  (As a reference, babies gain about half a pound per week for the first 3 months of life and then they double their birth weight by the time they are 4 months old and triple their birth weight at age 1.)

What is your opinion??
