Thank you so much! Most days meal plan looks like this:
Breakfast - 2 weetabix, with 200 mls of oat milk, a chopped banana and a side bowl of strawberries or raspberries. 300 ml of fresh orange juice. Breakfast is very rigid, this is eaten in full every day. No left overs. On a Saturday morning she does some volunteer work at a riding stables in return for a half hour lesson and on those days I add a small scotch pancake with jam or another half weetabix.
Morning snack - nesquik chocolate milkshake made with 200ml of semi skimmed cows milk plus a fibre one birthday cake bar or a non diet alpen bar.
Lunch - really decent sized bowl of soup and a slice of granary bread or a wholemeal sandwich thin (she refuses to eat it if it has butter on) or a hummus wrap with grated carrot, spinach. She has the wrap with portion of pop chips. Plus cucumber and an apple. Pudding is usually a mini custard pot (100cal) and strawberries. Or a 100 cal portion of strawberry oat yogurt.
Pm snack - 200ml of orange juice and a packet of prawn cocktail quavers
Tea - jacket spud with beans and a small amount of cheese, or a Buddha bowel (couscous, falafel, roasted veg, spinach, small amount of hummus)
She likes a veg curry with rice. Or a sweet potato tagine or sometimes he’ll eat 3 (sometimes 4) frozen veg fingers with couscous or new potato’s and peas.
Pudding is always tricky but we aim for a pot of rice pudding or a non diet yogurt or a small vegan chocolate pot (100 cals) so we add fruit to that as well.
Evening snack - 300 ml hot chocolate made with oat milk and another fibre one cake bar.
I think the snacks and tea are the problem. She sticks to snacks that are under 100 cals and tea tends to be too much veg.
