[quote=Anonymous]Thanks PP at 9:57. She is almost 11, no signs of early puberty (just a few small signs of on-time puberty; ped says we are two years away). She eats very "clean", even more so than me and my younger child. She often can be hungry so she eats when she needs to, and I tell her she can eat whatever she wants (unlike the little one who would live on pasta, Coca-Cola and chocolate if I let her!). She says her favorite food is kale. She is a very active competitive athlete year round in one sport, does a second sport less seriously during the school year, and just finished a stint on a summer swim team, so she is burning lots and lots of calories every day. She also has that energy you mentioned. Your story helps me think that while she may not be typical of girls her age she is most definitely normal for a competitive athlete. Thanks for the reality check! :-)[/quote]
