[quote=Anonymous]For portion control, make smaller amounts of the less healthy part of the meal. Enough pasta for everyone to have a good size serving, and lots of veggies, salad and turkey meatballs if he's still hungry. One roll per person but lots of chicken breasts and quinoa and veggies.

He needs to eat more earlier in the day so he isn't so starving at dinner. You make make healthy, filling breakfasts ahead of time he can grab going out the door. I put veggies and diced ham in cupcake trays (spray with Pam first) and full with eggs, the last a few days in the fridge. PB, banana and honey sandwiches on whole grain bread is another easy option. Or make healthy muffins you can freeze, we like these: http://www.yellowblissroad.com/zucchini-carrot-oatmeal-muffins/

And you need to find a balance between ice cream every night and making it taboo. Buy little single serving cups and he can have one during the week and one during the weekend. Or maybe healthier dessert options, I add chocolate chips to these and serve them for dessert - http://thegreenforks.com/popeye-muffins/[/quote]
