[quote=Anonymous]Thanks. I agree it’s better she’s not hiding the food, although sometimes she does. I’m nervous about any incentives or disincentives for eating/not eating because I’m worried she’ll just start hiding the food. I don’t want to put money in the lunch account because she’ll just buy cookies or chips and eat them. She binges on junk food (and hides the evidence/lies about it). (She also won’t eat microwaved food or meat, so there’s probably not a lot she’d eat from the school cafeteria.). I’ve told her I’ll buy her anything moderately healthy to take and I pack what she’s selected. We offered the counseling office for lunch in case the noise is the issue but she doesn’t take advantage. Just wanted to see if there’s anything else I could/should be doing. I feel like her other issues would improve if she would eat regular healthy meals—she probably knows that cognitively but can’t bring herself to help herself. [/quote]
