Het duurde een hele tijd voordat ik er van overtuigd was dat mijn dochtertje te dik was. Oké, ze was stevig. Geen probleem. Dat wilde ik wel toegeven. Overgewicht, dat werd al een stuk moeilijker. Obesitas… Wát? Nee, obesitas bij een kindje van anderhalf jaar bestaat niet.
En dan mijn omgeving. Een enkeling zei wel dat Femke aan de stevige (daar heb je de term weer) kant was. Maar al snel werd dat onbelangrijk gemaakt, want dat ging er vanzelf af. Als ik zei dat Femke voortaan echt moest opletten met eten en drinken, vonden de meesten dat onzin. “Overdreven gedoe”, hoorde ik mensen vaak zeggen. Als ik begon over obesitas (= ongezond veel overgewicht), zat er niemand meer met mij op één lijn.
Het consultatiebureau hield wel standvastig vol. We kregen extra afspraken om het beweeg- en eetpatroon te bespreken en waar mogelijk aan te passen. Echt erin geloven deed ik nog niet, maar volgzaam was ik wel. Toen het overgewicht bleef toenemen, adviseerde het bureau mij naar de huisarts te gaan voor het vragen naar een verwijsbrief voor de kinderarts. Misschien iets lichamelijks? Ja, dat zou kunnen. Ik voelde opluchting. Iets fysieks, dat zou mooi zijn. Zie je wel, het ligt niet aan mij of aan Femkes eetgedrag. Ze heeft ‘gewoon’ een stofwisselingsziekte of iets dergelijks.
Mijn huisarts heeft Femke doorverwezen. Onze dochter is helemaal onderzocht. Er is geen afwijking gevonden. Wel heeft ze extreme aanleg om dik te worden. En haar maag geeft onvoldoende signalen naar de hersenen als ze genoeg heeft gegeten. Femke moest dus gaan eten met haar verstand. Als ouder was ik het aan haar verplicht dat verstand voor haar te zijn. Zelf was ze toen immers nog maar twee jaar.
De inhoud van mijn winkelwagen moest drastisch veranderen. Ik moest het wel toegeven: onze eetgewoonten waren niet goed. Niet gezond. “Verbeter de wereld, begin bij jezelf” heb ik toen gedacht. Het werd iets breder: het gezin. Mijn boodschappen veranderden en iedereen in huis moest ‘om’. Dat ging niet zonder slag of stoot. Ik durf zelfs te zeggen: het was een zware strijd. Maar het is gelukt. En het belangrijkste van alles: onze dochter heeft gelukkig geen stofwisselingsziekte!

The NFL game is played by millionaires with billions of dollars of revenue at stake. And then you are going to do the same thing with your hands and you are doing a push up. In 1990s the 16 bit era started and with that also the development of 3D graphics. Or, you can merely bet on the cash line or straight up winner of the game. “You have to believe me: Promising to build a wall was supposed to be the thing that let everyone else know that we weren’t

We’re told Wayne heard Birdman saying he’s putting the beef behind him, but believes the Cash Money honcho’s just trying to “look like the nice guy.” Weezy’s yet to hear a peep about settling his $51 million lawsuit, and until he does . Only those studies which report ‘clinically specific’ change detection strategies (or strategies that have demonstrated the ability to appropriately detect no change in unchanging normal eyes) are summarised below.. The Jaded fan is what happens after years of terrible play and heartbreak. Nick Anderson Team officials and trainers examine Orlando Magic guard Nick Anderson as

The Sydney FC chairman has raised some valid points one of which is that the Sky Blues haven’t had a home game yet. I’m going for stripes, the scenario is, so I have stripes and I have to hit my ball first. The Eagles should be able to move the ball through the air against the Packers.. The key to being able to successfully run the 46 defense is to consistently pressure the quarterback and stop the running game. Under that kind of pressure, one girl ended up losing 11 pounds in four days, which, besides being spectacularly dangerous, earned her a $500 prize. Joe Flacco must show that the loss of Pitta and Boldin is negligible, and that he can continue to show the ability that brought him the Super Bowl MVP trophy in February.. After it expired, he destroyed it.But 21 years later, in 2005, he was arrested when police conducted a sweep of
