Ds1 - 12 eats a shameful amount of food, he is what you can only describe as a professional athlete. he plays academy and county football, and the same for athletics.
He also does at school football, hockey, basketball, cross country and table tennis. Outside of school he does football, judo and mixed martial arts.
Take today for example -
BF - poached eggs on wholemeal toast, berry and smoothie yogurt and a homemade oatmeal square (which he eats walking to school)
S - banana and small bag of pretzels, 2 x bags of haribos
L- he said he had a pepperoni panini on white , fresh orange juice, and a apple
S - yogurt, homemade strawberry milkshake, turkey slices and cheese on crackers x6, another slice of homemade oat square
T - Homemade fish pie, (salmon, king prawn, cod annd ywllow fish) with broccoli, green beans and spinach and kale
S - large bowl of coco pops, 2 x slice of toast and another apple, also 4 x digestive chocolate biscuits
His day started at 6am, at football training for 2 hours, then he had school PE, and also after school basketball. This evening he had mixed martial arts
Hes more than likely burned more calories than hes consumed.
I'm dreading when he starts puberty, multiplied by a growth spurt.
