[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op - I am worried because she pretty much just eats carbs (I do use protein pasta), fruit, and goldfish/snacks. Obviously she is growing fine and has maintained her curve and doctors aren’t worried about that. But she doesn’t get any calcium, no vegetables and barely any protein. To be honest I don’t know how she is even growing, let alone taller than 75% of her peers. She is rarely sick so it’s not affecting her immune system. She would rather be starving hungry than eat something she dislikes. The other day she was out with friends without me and she was so hungry she had a huge headache when she got home but refused to eat the food at the restaurant they went to because she didn’t like it. [/quote] Personally I think volume eaten, and eating real food over processed snacks and meals are more important to growth. Yes, give a vitamin to cover nutritional deficiencies, but I wouldn’t worry too much about growth if she’s on the curve. [/quote]
