Eating... Or not

My 2yr old doesn't eat! He'll maybe eat a few mouthfuls of a meal and leave the rest. He doesn't like fruit or veg, rarely eats even half of a meal... Asks for snacks all the time but even if I limit them, he doesn't eat! He is a very happy and energetic boy so I don't understand where the energy comes from! Anyone in the same boat and/or can offer any advice please?

It's the snacks, probably. Cut them off completely for a few days and see if it makes any change.

My boy is the same but does love his fruit but trying to get veg in him is a joke! But also with his meals he hardly eats anything but when I give him snacks will clear them! I did speak to the health visitor about it and they did say it’s just a phase and they will start to enjoy meal time again!x

Thank you, ladies!x

I was in this constant loop and then was giving him snacks because I felt without them he’d just have nothing. But cutting the snacks completely just made him naturally more hungry. It also helped me when doing this to make sure i did meals at set times to put my mind at ease that he wasn’t going hungry. X
