Weight loss again - calorie supplements ?

[Guest guest]

Hi everybody,

Several days ago I wrote to the list to see/hear whether any other children are

experiencing weight loss in the initial stages of the diet. Frances' weight loss

and her physical exhaustion/lethargy are now so significant - in spite of eating

a healthy, balanced diet - that the paediatrician thinks she should be taking

calorie supplements. I am really quite concerned that something may be going

wrong but can't find any obvious " faults " . Could this just be a temporary thing

and should we put her on calorie supplements anyway? We are getting her blood

tests back tomorrow which would tell us if she was anaemic.

Any comments appreciated
