[QUOTE="ally5555, post: 207307, member: 7357"] Hi Matt Not sure if your child is a boy or girl but the average for a 4-6 yr old is around 1500 - 1700 calories/day ( F/M). That is an average of course. So yes, 100g is low carbing even if you base it on 40% calories from carbs which equals 150gCHO. Children have very different requirements to adults but do not need excessive amounts of protein - hence the reason I suggest you see the dietitian and talk it over with them. Also the bacon etc also provides a lot of salt! They would be able to analyse the food diaries as well. Hope that helps - I am guessing that you have a daughter! Ally [/QUOTE]
