[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I doubt it's that she's hungry. Do other people at the table have seconds too? Tell her you're saving them for leftovers for the next night. I will specifically put half the food away before I serve it because I know people will come around trying to eat the leftovers.[/quote] Trust me that she might actually be hungry! Some people can't fill up as easily as others even if they eat healthy foods. I eat very healthfully and sometimes even a high protein/balanced meal with eggs and some coconut oil and a lot of vegetables will not fill me up even if I eat slowly and drink a lot of water. It's frustrating. Please be patient with your dd, op! Be active with her and don't criticize her body or choices. Remove junk from the house but keep plenty of easy to access fruits and vegetables around. [/quote]
