I give him multivitamins for kids and d3. Thanks for the magnesium suggestion! As far as fatty foods, he actually likes dishes from ground beef so they are our staple. I also give him mashed potatoes with lots of butter, and he has unlimited access to high-quality Swiss chocolate. I am thinking about trying cyproheptadine because I am simply worried that it can negatively impact his puberty start and then his social life if other boys will grow much faster.


Mhmmm... As a little boy I loveeedd ground beef...

Believe it or not, my favourite food was Parmesan cheese! I liked it so much I even made sandwiches of it with French bread....

I got a lot of Vit K I guess...

When I became underweight at 9, likely due to a thyroid related issue, my Mom put me on low dose Cypro and my appetite went up to the point I now realize I was eating like a pothead... She had to cycle the cypro in me because I was becoming too bulky after a few months...
