My daughter now tells us anything (not just food) she doesn't want is "not healthy." This list includes homework, gloves, making her bed, a certain shirt she hates and more. She has figured out that 'not healthy' is a phrase that has power and she is trying to figure out how to make that power her own!Terrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14802459265546733391noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2186797796234731983.post-8502541059704051872009-12-20T12:52:48.665+02:002009-12-20T12:52:48.665+02:00ie, We decided last week to eliminate soya, so tha...ie, We decided last week to eliminate soya, so that we could work on this problem more effectively, but are postponing the the decree for a week or so because I am currently kitchen-less. I am still cooking cgood meals on a gas burner, but for the sake of my teen-age sons, I am leaving the soya until they have an easier way to prepare a meal if they arrive home suddenly, unexpectedly, or after Ricki snuck and ate their portion in addition to her own....rickismomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07817042750959998664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2186797796234731983.post-32877052424019216212009-12-20T12:49:12.971+02:002009-12-20T12:49:12.971+02:00Actually, if you look at the nutritional values, t...Actually, if you look at the nutritional values, there is a decent amount of protein in the soya products. <br /> It should go without saying that I offer her salads and vegetables, which except for tomatos she refuses (90% of the time). Her eating and hunger is obviously having much more to do with bad habits, having something to do, and possibly a power struggle as well. As a result we ARE planning to eliminate soya from the house (at least for a while) once my kitchen gets finished. (We are FINALLY finishing the kitchen after a year plus of having pipes not in the wall and only cold water).rickismomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07817042750959998664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2186797796234731983.post-69288323447393503232009-12-20T10:57:54.839+02:002009-12-20T10:57:54.839+02:00Maybe if she wants supper after eating all that yo...Maybe if she wants supper after eating all that you can suggest a salad, possibly with some protein thrown in (cheese, tuna or even bits of chicken) to complement what she's already eaten.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2186797796234731983.post-10146107951111030772009-12-20T08:37:03.934+02:002009-12-20T08:37:03.934+02:00I guess it won't work with Ricki, but I lost w...I guess it won't work with Ricki, but I lost weight by davka not eating the triggers.<br /><br />You're invited to participate in the <a href="http://me-ander.blogspot.com/2009/12/your-best-chanukah-picture-of-holiday.html" rel="nofollow">Your Best Chanukah Picture of The Holiday!</a> meme.Batyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09402874037427009327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2186797796234731983.post-28036384099160860352009-12-20T06:16:18.869+02:002009-12-20T06:16:18.869+02:00There is nothing healthy in soy patties - look at ...There is nothing healthy in soy patties - look at the ingredients.
