Answer
For an 8-year-old child with a height of 130 cm and a weight of 73 pounds, an increase in belly fat may be a sign of obesity. Feeling hungry after dinner every day and craving snacks and drinks are common factors contributing to obesity. The most effective and safe way to lose weight is to combine exercise with dietary control, avoid excessive snacking, and help children lose weight healthily. Parents should adopt regular treatment methods to avoid adverse effects on the child’s growth and development.
