Eating...

So how do you get a 13 year old girl to eat more than carbs? The teenager is a "carbatarian", which means she eats no meats, veges, and minimal fruits. On a rare occasion, I can get her to eat a scrambled egg or two. She considers potatoes and corn vegetables...NOT! 

I have preached to her about fueling her body since she is a runner, won't do it. I have recently gotten her to eat yogurt (that have the mini m&m's/oreos crumbles). I guess it is a start. 

I have the cookbook where you can sneak veges in food that is cooked, I haven't been able to disguise it enough and finally gave up.

Tonite for dinner, she drank a protein drink with a banana from Starbucks....by force! Why must she be this way?
