<BR>We always meet with the school every year before school starts. We meet with the principal, pe teacher, nurse, and any teacher that will be involved with her for the year. We go over meds, bathroom breaks, gatorade privledges, Healthy eating for her, smoke and dust on the playground, absences, and anything else I can think of that we may have had problems with before. I learned to add the Healthy eating after Abby told me that she did not want butter on her bread because it was not good for her. I tried to explain that it was and why, but I found out that mom was not as smart as her teacher who apparently in her eyes new everything. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0"> Every since then that is one of my main topics to go over with the new teacher. They are now very sensitive when going over nuitrition and they explain to the class why Abby is special and lucky in that she gets to eat lots of fatty salty things. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0"> I am a very meak person and shy away from confruntation. Abby has given me a backbone. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0"> My doctor has always told me that if you can keep the weight on then her chances of being healthy are much better. If that means chips at snack you better believe that my daughter will have chips at snack. Fight for her girl!

As a parent and teacher this is a problem.  I send in other types of
snacks.  Pudding, yogurt, chunks of cheese, chunks of meats.  Chips are
not the only choice you have that would meet her needs are they?
 Thinking outside of the box is the best solution to this.  Also you
might find if the snack is all eaten close to lunch time the lunch goes
uneaten.  I have this problem with my daughter so I do pack the chips
and more favorite foods in her lunch to encourage her to eat at lunch
time.

"healthy" snacks for kids with CF

It is possible to give kids with CF healthy snacks while at school, My DD has CF and Ive always provided her with high calorie healthy snacks. The trick is to ignore the fat content and seek out natural unprocessed foods regardless of the calorie content! It takes a little effort in the supermarket to READ ingredient labels and some research but hey, thank God for Google... If ANYONE or ANY SITE is advocating you feed your child McDonald's french Fries or a bacon cheeseburger to get them their calories, I would be VERY cautious of their credentials.<div><br></div><div>TRY:</div><div>Avocado's with salt -or make a home made guacamole dip and dip baked tortilla chips.</div><div><br></div><div>Cheese - try a three cheese whole wheat pita wrap. Or Cheese & Crackers</div><div><br></div><div>Organic Peanut Butter/ Jelly/ Jam - on anything, raw veggies, crackers etc...</div><div><br></div><div>Cream cheese & organic raspberry jam filled graham cracker sandwiches</div><div><br></div><div>Hummus whole wheat pita wraps (add avocado, feta or goat cheese & diced cucumbers for more nutrition AND calories)</div><div><br></div><div>Trail Mix</div><div><br></div><div>Granola Bars (real ones, not the Quaker brand highly processed ones)</div><div><br></div><div>Fruit (Apples, pears, bananas) with caramel dipping sauce.</div><div><br></div><div>Greek Yogurt with granola & fresh fruit topping</div><div><br></div><div>Dried fruits with dipping sauce</div><div><br></div><div>Home made oatmeal raisin cookies</div><div><br></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="sans-serif" size="2"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 16px;

"healthy" snacks for kids with CF

It is possible to give kids with CF healthy snacks while at school, My DD has CF and Ive always provided her with high calorie healthy snacks. The trick is to ignore the fat content and seek outnatural unprocessed foods regardless of the calorie content!It takes a little effort in the supermarket to READ ingredient labels and some research but hey, thank God for Google... If ANYONE or ANY SITE is advocating you feed your child McDonald's french Fries or a bacon cheeseburger to get them their calories, I would be VERY cautious of their credentials.<br>TRY:Avocado'swith salt -or make a home made guacamole dip and dip baked tortilla chips.<br>Cheese - try a three cheese whole wheat pita wrap. Or Cheese & Crackers<br>Organic Peanut Butter/ Jelly/ Jam - on anything, raw veggies, crackers etc...<br>Cream cheese & organic raspberry jam filled graham cracker sandwiches<br>Hummus whole wheat pita wraps (addavocado, feta or goat cheese & diced cucumbers for more nutrition AND calories)<br>Trail Mix<br>Granola Bars (real ones, not the Quaker brand highly processed ones)<br>Fruit (Apples, pears, bananas) with caramel dipping sauce.<br>Greek Yogurt with granola & fresh fruit topping<br>Dried fruits with dipping sauce<br>Home made oatmeal raisin cookies<br><font class="Apple-style-span" face="sans-serif" size="2"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 16px;
