i understand your concern but if you will conduct a healthy diet- it will help him develop and not the other way around. obesity in children has a tremendous effect on life because of the fact you mentioned. think of it- his whole body adapting itself for obesity. it's hart lungs GI system will develop differently. this is the time to inflict your child healthy habits. sport, good and balanced nutrition and avoiding unhealthy diets.
