[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Typical day: breakfast burritos and fruit. Chicken nuggets, string cheese, apples and ketchup for lunch. Chili with ground beef and rice and a veggie for dinner. Snacks about 11 and 2 and 4. Snacks might include: pepperoni, fruit leather, yogurt, carrots, bell peppers, cheese and crackers, popcorn, plus a serving of whatever we baked that day. We go for hot chocolate at Starbucks once or twice a week. We do dessert of fruit and cool whip or a serving of ice cream. The additional food is on top of all that. [/quote] Those aren't the healthiest meals, IMO. Also, you don't need two desserts a day (baked treat plus dessert) - that's probably 500 calories right there. Try exchanging those for more protein and make sure every snack has protein too (carrots and hummus, apple and peanut butter) Here are my kids' meals today: Breakfast - omelets with cheese, mushrooms, and turkey bacon (This is what we had, it's not for health reasons, sometimes we have regular bacon) Lunch - ham and cheese sandwich with cherry tomatoes on the side. They were still hungry, so they each had a mandarin orange. Dinner - chicken souvlaki with couscous and tzatziki sauce [/quote] This is the diet of a peri menapausal woman. [/quote] That is the comment of a mom who only feeds her children dino nuggets and mac and cheese. [/quote] No doubt this comment is by the pp who accuses others of having an eating disorder while he shops only perimeter of the grocery store and feeds hummus to her kids! Yet, she thinks she has no eating disorder![/quote] Sounds like you are overweight, I am sorry for your struggles. It’s not a good reason to put down others who care about feeling healthful foods to their families though. [/quote] LOL! How much do you weigh and how tall are you? I stand proudly at 116lbs 5'4" and 50 years old. Yet, I eat ribs, and chicken, and steak, and pasta and rice and three proper meals a day. None of them is a "salad." More like, as all are saying, you have an eating disorder. I have never been overweight, nor did I ever count calories like a nut job, why should I? The best way to eat is the Med way and moderation but no restriction. I would not even respond to you, but you do have a child! I hope you take a look at you, a long look, and realize what many of us realized already about you. You are causing you child an eating disorder.[/quote] I don't think you realize that you're responding to multiple people who are criticizing you. I'm the one who posted what my children ate above (you shamed me for feeding my children couscous, OMG), but none of the other comments above are mine.[/quote]
