[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Typical day: breakfast burritos and fruit. Chicken nuggets, string cheese, apples and ketchup for lunch. Chili with ground beef and rice and a veggie for dinner. Snacks about 11 and 2 and 4. Snacks might include: pepperoni, fruit leather, yogurt, carrots, bell peppers, cheese and crackers, popcorn, plus a serving of whatever we baked that day. We go for hot chocolate at Starbucks once or twice a week. We do dessert of fruit and cool whip or a serving of ice cream.

The additional food is on top of all that. [/quote]

Suggest you take a hard look at how you all eat and feed your kids.

Ketchup is a condiment, not a food. Fruit leather is garbage. Just do whole fruit.  Chicken nuggets?  Pepperoni? You mentioned baking--that's not healthy eating either.  String cheese isn't real cheese.

Maybe do some reading on nutrition. Not what you asked about, but a pivot in eating styles for the whole family, and eliminating processed snack foods for all of you might help.  And call a professional for the other parts.[/quote]

What OP posted is fine. You can't win for losing on this site. I posted about my kid's diet and got skewered because most of her preferred foods are low fat superfoods (not my fault!). OP, maybe you would get more helpful advice if you posted in the kids with special needs forum about your kid who seems to be eating compulsively-the adhd diagnosis seems important here. [/quote]
