[quote=Anonymous]Our son's a generally good eater but, when he was taking stimulants as pills, we would give him waffles with peanut butter for breakfast. In general though we just tried to get him to eat anything -- even late evening ice cream was fine. Even pop tarts. He's now on Daytrana and his eating habits are more balanced. All that said, he hasn't LOST weight on stimulants. This past year, he gained 4 lbs between annual check-ups (he's 9 and now weighs close to 60 lbs and is about 4'3"-4'4"). Even prior to stimulant medication he had a very lean build and was not destined to be tall. [/quote]
