As long as he is happy, active and reasonably healthy, do not worry. When he hits the age for growth spurts, his appetite will return. I used to say my son lived on air--but they don't need as much food as we think they do. Just offer nutritious food he likes at meal time. You might keep meals structured--same time, eat at the table, with no TV or music in the background--to help him pay attention.

In addition to the above excellent suggestions, if the medication he takes is an appetite suppressant, (Ritalin, etc.) you might consider having drug "holidays" when it is not as critical for him to be focused. Perhaps you could try this during the summer when he does not attend school, or on weekends during the school year.

OVERweight?? That's actually a little on the skinny side. But your height (four feet and eight inches) is also a factor, so you are actually at a normal weight for that.
