[Khalam's Mama]

Breakfast: Bowl of coco poops and a wheatabix with milk
S: 1/2 bag Crisps and 1/2 a banana and avocado pancake with honey
Lunch: 2.5 slices Bread and Marmite
S: (at my sister's) chocolate mousse
Dinner: Saag masala (with chicken, feta cheese, mushrooms and carrots in) and rice
S: hot chocolate (very weak)

I was reading that at 2yo they can start having more wholemeal stuff and less fat so have switched to 50/50 bread (made with 1/2 wholemeal, 1/2 white flour) and semi-skimmed milk. K is getting quite chunky and whilst there is more rubbish in his diet than is ideal I hope this will also help.

I find it hard that I spend alot of time with my sister and she lets her kids eat lots of things I wouldn't normally let DS eat but feel mean saying no when they are eating it in front of him. I do limit it at home.

Hey there girls, I've been off this thread for a while now, but feel I really need to start tracking what ds eats, as I fear he's lacking in the fruits and veggies department, so will be tagging along for encouragement and inspiration

[Khalam's Mama]

This helps me to keep on track with healthy eating seeing it in blackand white.

B: Crunchy nut corn flakes and an apple
S: 1/2 a weetabix
L: 1/2 chicken sandwich, some prawn cocktail crisps, cheese and crackers
S: chocolate biscuit and hot chocolate (at my Mum's)
D: Chips and chicken (take out as our mince was off when I went to cook it so last minute)

Gosh I am embarrassed to even post this!

[twogirlsmommy]

Breakfast: Cheerios and Milk
Snack: more Cheerios and a chocolate chip muffet (out shopping)
Lunch: Pizza (still shopping)
Snack: Yogurt tube
Dinner: Cheese burger pie, broccoli pancake, grapes

She actually tried a bite of the cheeseburger pie but she spit it out.  Dh was dissapointed but I was pretty pleased she actually tried it being as she never tries anything new to her.  She ate the crust and nothing else for dinner. Baby steps right?

So here's what Adam had for the day:

Breakfast : Cheese spread sandwich with a cup of milk
Lunch : Meatballs with pasta
Snack : he was as MIL, so had a variety of things, mainly a few mouthfuls of chicken and pasta, and mangoes
Dinner : Meatballs with sweet potatoes and a cup of milk
Snack: Half a mango

[Khalam's Mama]

B: 1 egg omlette and 1 slice toast, juice
S: Out with DH
L: turkey baguette, monster monch
S: banana
D: corn on the cob, lasagne (with mushrooms and aubergine) with garlic bread
S: Chocolate biscuit and hot chocolate

The 5 a day is lacking as have been limiting fruit to try to improve the PTing but maybe this isn't such a great idea???

[twogirlsmommy]

Breakfast: Waffle w/syrup
Snack: 1/1 a bananna
Lunch: PBJ and strawberries (she picked but ate very little)
Snack: picked alittle more at leftover lunch
Dinner: Squash, grapes, rice with corn, peppers and black beans.

She tried the black beans and spit them out (but she tried!) at the corn and some bits of rice, the peppers where a lost cause.
