[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here- growing up I was always told to not eat right before bed because food can’t be digested. I am new to this!

I know he is hungry so that’s why I am looking for something healthy and fills him up.

Love all of these ideas! Thank you.[/quote]

PP with the carrots... one of my strategies with veggies and fruit (and I know this is not unique) is basically to have a bottomless veggie and fruit option. So, I may say, well, you can have two girl scout cookies, OR as many carrots as you can carry to your room (so long as you don't leave them in there for weeks). And being a dumb (but beloved) boy, he always goes for the bottomless carrots. Now he loves carrots. With my daughter it's cherries. She whines for candy and as she starts to get very upset, I say, "Well, don't tell mom, but you can have as many cherries as you want, but just today." Both kids have sweet tooths but both eat insane amounts of fruits and vegetables. [/quote]

This sounds like one big eating disorder waiting to happen. [/quote]

Only on DCUM would children loving to eat fruits and vegetables be considered an eating disorder. [/quote]

Giving a growing teen boy nothing but freaking carrots when he is hungry is absolutely insane.  [/quote]
