Teddy struggles with maintaining a healthy weight for several reasons….The three main issues are that he has a limited diet with lots of processed foods (we are working on that), he takes medication that affects his metabolism, and participates in limited physical activities that other neurotypical kids his age are involved with. So, now that the weather is getting warmer my dad started taking Teddy on walks in hopes to improve his health. This is HUGE for Teddy not only because he’s getting exercise but because he is learning safety!! So proud of Teddy!
