Our 8 y old daughter has been taking Adderal with great success treating her ADHD, however she has lost some weight - nothing serious, yet.. Are there any resources for nutritious small portion and high calorie meals for kids like ours? We have an appt with a nutritionist, but that's a month out. Need advice now...

I give my son a big breakfast. We also let him eat non stop in the evening when his Adderall wears off. We make a variety of foods available to him both before and after dinner. His doctor suggested Ensure but my son doesn't like it.
