This morning I got Molly up extra-early so she wouldn't be so sleepy for breakfast. I gave her a plate that included cheese, sliced apples, grapes, toast with broiled cheese-flavored sandwich slice melted on it and her vitamins (which I sometimes forget to give her in the morning and wait till the afternoon for). A wide variety of things I know she likes so that she'll eat SOMETHING and maybe have a better day today :)
HOWEVER, I'm torn about "Making" her eat breakfast because of my own learned behavior of "Clean Plate" syndrome. My parents always made me finish everything on my plate before I was allowed to go play or do anything and, as a result, I can't NOT eat everything on my plate no matter how full I am. That's ma HUGE part of my own weight problems and I don't want to pass that on to Molly.
I tend to over-think lots of stuff...
