[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All of you please stop pushing fruit! This generation is not metabolically healthy and they need good fats and proteins, plus low-starch veg. (Also even todays apples are far more sugary than 50 years ago). PP’s who combine fruit with fats have the right idea.

I would sit down and make a list of *everything* in that category your child likes. We end up with a lot of olives and coconut-rich smoothies because my kids like them. For you it might be avocado toast with eggs and frequent broccoli. Don’t be afraid to repeat and repeat because chances are there aren’t that many foods that support metabolic health that everyone will happily eat. This will help blunt cravings and increase satiety. I agree you can’t control what she eats outside of the home without blowback.

And to all the judgmental PP’s, this may not be your kid now but it very well may be at 20 or 30, especially when the sports slow down, the drinking goes up and the endocrine issues get triggered by stressors. [/quote]
