My daughter's eating habits are kinda odd now that she is in all day kindergarten. When she is home for the day, she usually eats 3 big meals & a small snack or no snacks, which leaves us with extra enzymes according to her prescribed amount.

When she is in school all day, she eats 3 meals and 2 small snacks, which leaves her with extra enzymes still but not as many.

Her prescription is written for 3 meals and 3 snacks (snacks that are half the fat/size of meals) and she never eats much for a snack, so we usually give her 1/2 of what the prescription calls for.

Hope this isn't too confusing! Basically, we always have lots of enzymes bc she doesn't use them up each month and I always order them as early as possible. Right now I have about 4 months worth in the cabinet.

Maggie usually eats less on school days...But she is a big snacker. She'll have a glass of whole milk; then 15 minutes later eat pretzels; then want fruit(no enzymes)..then chips..then dinner, then 15 min after dinner want another snack! a few snacks she has need the enzymes she takes as meals cause of the fat. So, I'm thinking we are just not getting enough for her constant eating..

My ds takes 2 different strenght enzymes, 3 meals a day and 2 snacks. He takes pancrecarb ms-8 and ms-4(same as pancrese). Also with each meal and snack he has a Kid Essential 1.5. Snacks are usually chips, dry cereal, or fruit. Lunch and dinner usually consists of pasta or something fried in butter, and LOTS AND LOTS of McDonald's. He's picky so whatever I can get in him... It sounds like a lot less though compared to what others have written.
