One day's normal intake for The Boy (and he is not fat):
Breakfast: Large bowl of cereals, 4 slices of toast and marmalade/honey, Half pint milk
Lunch: Two large sandwiches (today cheese, ham and salad). A carrot with half a tub of houmous. One banana. Half a pint of cranberry juice
Evening: Salmon fillet, potatoes, salad. 2 plums. 2 yoghurts. Half pint milk. Still feeling peckish so cheese and biscuits with some grapes.
Snack before bed: Large sandwich, banana, juice, apple. 4 biscuits.
That's significantly more than I eat!
Is this normal? (SNoopy goes first)

No he doesn't. I do. point:
Nowt in your house is normal Nick. Even the house isn't normal ffs! eeek:
WW2 air raid shelter in the basement ffs! eeek:

And how much do your cubs eat?

Surely with Captain Calamity that is an insurance requirement point:
From what I have read of him on here it sounds like the boy is an extremely active soul so between that and the fact he is still growing I'd say his intake is probably normal.
Or as normal as things get in Castle Nick eeek:
-
The shelter accommodates 55 people apparently, not that we have ever tested that claim.
-
Seal the entrance from your house, dig another one and with a bit of DIY work you could open a themed guest house eyes:

As Grumpmeister says considering The Boy's shenanigans and age that probably isn't far off. If he was sedentary in front of a pc for the majority of the day it probably would be but he isn't.

I assume Wenchy can calculate the calorific value....................
-
Also take into consideration the quality of the food, it isnt fat and sugar laden junk so even if his intake seems extreme, while he isnt putting on any weight he's probably far more healthy than his peers
I have to ask though Nick, what on earth is cerelas? whistle:

I have no idea what you are on about evil:

I don't do calories, I do GI. Other than the amount of bread he is consuming I don't see anything wrong with it. And even then so long as it isn't plastic white bread it's all good stuff.

Wholemeal.
And what is GI? S'OK, looked it up.
And he has just asked me for some more lunch Banghead

That's about what our 9yo gets through on an average day. The 6yo eats a bit less, the 14yo would consider that lot a light snack! They do eat a f*ck of a lot more than we do but they are growing I guess.
An average week's shopping at the kennel includes 3kilos Bananas, 2 kilos Apples, 2 Kilos Oranges, 1 kilo Grapes, Punnet of Nectarines/peaches and 8 Kiwi Fruit and a large Honeydew Melon.
We also buy 6 loaves of bread + make 6 ourselves (some prefer shop sliced bread for their toast)
18 pots of Yoghurt, 3 kilos Carrots, 2 heads of Celery, sundry cucumbers, tomatoes, at least two lettuce, 1 kilo cheddar cheese, half kilo Edam or similar, 30 eggs. I cauliflower, two large heads of Broccoli, half kilo Onions, 2 Kilos pasta (various shapes including Spaghetti) one kilo Rice. Sundry fish, and Twenty fish fingers. 5 Kilos Potatoes
Meat is an unknown as brother is a butcher and simply restocks our freezer as it needs it.
Oh and all three have school lunches!!! eeek:

Then I wouldn't worry. To be fair unless they are sat in front of the computer/tv eating turkey twizzlers for dinner then I wouldn't be concerned.

That is reassuring. I worked out we get through 24 pints of milk a week. There are only three of us!

He is presently "watching TV". This involves having the TV on and leaping around the room, occasionally bouncing off a sofa. noooo:

We only use 9 pints of milk a week. None of them like milk much, Mrs S is allergic to it and I don't like it. I never eat cereals (however you spell it) and the children only have a little milk on theirs. Mrs S doesn't eat cereal either.
My breakfast is always Porridge (made with rolled oats and water) with half teaspoon of cinnamon on top. Good for the cholesterol ~ or so they tell me. We do seem to go through gallons of Orange and/or Apple juice.
And NO Children like seedy bread (in my experience that is something that one grows into liking)
-
I've always liked seedy bread. eeek:
-
I have explained to him that the best part of what we eat is seeds. Even chips are made from seeds FFS. "Don't like seeds".
So: no cake, no biscuits......................??

I will correct my statement to say that in my experience NO NORMAL children like seedy bits in their bread. ::)

GI is something promoted by the television "cook" Anthony Worral Thompson, I have deducted that seeing as he's a fat bastard the GI diet means bugger all
If you want to lose weight either don't eat or have a mouth thats smaller than your arse
thus speaks the tubby midget

He was late to the band wagon and his cook book promoting it was shite.

But you would all like his life style, his money, his house in Henley on Thames and his farm in Spain. The men among you would quite fancy his wife too.
Jealousy I call it.
BTW both of his cook books specialising in advice for using GI as a method of controlling weight were very good for someone with a heart condition and diabetes. They certainly helped me a lot.

Didn't like the recipes pesonally. I use his the least of any of them.
It probably is jealousy you're right. redface:

Rick, Nigella and even Delia for me (nice hands). I am working on a Jamie O recipe, but I fucked it up the first time and had to hide all the stuff down a drain redface:

To be honest we don't follow anyones recipes slavishly ~ we take their advice and adapt to suit ~ which is where AWT is so good.

TBH There are very few pics of her and those that I can find do not do a very attractive lady credit.

I couldn't either ~ at least not under her name but if you search Antony Worrall Thompson images there are one or two that feature her. OR Quote my post, copy the url of the pic that I have used into your search engine and it should give you the pic behind the Red X

Ah I see. Not bad, but has she got a big bum? (which would not be good)
