Hi Tammy,
I have the other problem where my one child is only 9 and is almost
5′ tall and weighs 135 lbs. We don’t feed our kids junk (hardly ever)
but I think that healthy fats like peanut butter and banana grilled
sandwiches ( yup that’s right, by the way these were Elvis P’s
favorite) Just like grilled cheese but with peanut butter and banana
slices or mashed. Avacados are great in a sandwich with cream cheese,
sprouts and some nice seasoning.
Eggs, cheeses, and meats are good sources of fats too. Just take your
time and don’t expect him to gain quickly.
Good luck
Lenka
