[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nothing.  My 14 year old really cannot eat in restaurants.  At home, he eats chicken, rice, a few vegetables, vanilla or strawberry yoplait yogurt, one brand of cheddar cheese, one variety of bread, and a few fruits.  He drinks milk.  We pack cheese, bread, and one of the fruits he eats for school - basically the same lunch every day.  I do feel concerned, but he is intaking enough calories, and the food he eats are reasonable-ish.[/quote]

Similar profile here. No chicken though - eggs instead.  Cheese, yogurt, fruit, bread, eggs. Not bad foods! But only certain types and sometimes even refuses them. Dr says it's good variety, but it doesn't seem like enough to me.

She loves to help me cook and even fairly often taste new things. But one bite and then won't eat any more. I'm hoping those little bites here and there mean that one day she'll learn to like them.

Interesting that so many posters here mention ADHD. Anyone know what the connection is? [/quote]

Dealing with very similar profile, also.  My kid also has ADHD and some sensory issues but is great student, good kid and generally thriving.  Except for very limited diet which is veering more toward sugar as kid gets older.  [/quote]
