[QUOTE="ksm, post: 548614, member: 12511"] School is now started for the past 5 days... and for that entire time difficult child is suddenly "not hungry right now" which is a huge change in her eating habits. She had been leaving for school not feeling like eating breakfast, which I thought was probably normal, as she was not used to getting up that early. But she hasn't eaten one lunch at school, nor took anything to eat. At supper, she is again "not hungry right now" and picks at her food. She is short, average build, and what I consider just right. Most her clothes are size 3 to size 5. She has one stupid pair of shorts she bought last year that is a girls size 10-12... made for about a 10 year old girl. She has been squeezing herself in to those shorts the past two summers. Yesterday she put them on and made the comment that hey, these aren't tight any more. Today she wanted to leave for school early and walk with her BFF... "because it is healthy to walk". Duh... so not like her. I know she wants to spend time with her friend, but things are starting to concern me. Today I told her she could walk to school, but she had to eat something before she left. She ate a granola bar. How should I handle this (on top of all the other usual stuff) KSM [/QUOTE]
