"LOST AT CAMP"


2 of 11

  "BARBIE IN A BOX" Courtney Jones, 8, of Michigan, receives a package from her mother the first day of weight-loss camp complete with 'Cali Girl' Barbie. Another package from her mother was also delivered the first day for her cabin-mates to share. About weight loss camp, licensed dietitian Frances Berg, author of 'Underage and Overweight,' said 'I think they're a terrible idea.' 'There's no scientific evidence that they work in the long term, and they put a lot of pressure on children to lose the weight so they can please their parents who have spent all this money,' she continued. Camp Shane costs $6,700 for a nine weeks.
