[quote=Anonymous]I have 5 half brothers and step brothers. They used to put away an absolutely staggering amount of food. This was in the times when bread wasn’t a swear word, but I remember my mom pretty much assuming they’d eat a loaf or two of whole wheat bread, a jar or PB, milk, a package of cheese slices and a bunch of fruit every day plus normal big meals. She was the queen of the casserole (despite being an excellent cook) at that point to stretch the food budget. It was insanity. I was a younger fairly athletic teen then too. No one ended up obese by any stretch, but I know the food consumed in our house during those years was staggering. My 8 year old girl is always on the go and can tuck away an amazing amount of food, especially during growth spurts. She’s not a “beanpole”, but certainly trim and pretty muscular for her age.
