[quote=Anonymous]DC has always been naturally slender, and never over-eats. Also a picky eater. DC started stimulants for ADHD, lost weight (2 lbs), but has only now gained 3 lbs in 3 years. We have worked with a nutritionist and have tried feeding therapy. Those helped DC gain back the 2 lbs, and now gain the third, but now not making additional progress so we stopped. DC still growing so pediatrician is not alarmed. DC is now 10 years old, 3% for BMI. Fwiw, DC can’t function without their medication — poor behavior and poor academics before they started. I feel exhausted trying to make DC eat every day. They just don’t seem to be hungry and won’t eat enough to maintain their own weight without being nagged. If your DC was similar, did anything work?
