I can see part of the rationale behind this. It is much easier to lose weight if you can isolate yourself from the food temptations, and/or have someone else in control of your diet. If you arent around the food, or you arent given any, you cant eat it. Hence, going someplace where your diet is controlled.
But yeah, thats mighty steep. But at least the parents are trying to do something about it, although the only way to keep that weight off is a complete lifestyle change, which a camp isnt going to impart.
