How old is Angela? Do her allergies include meat, fish, poultry and eggs? With
all due respect, I get the impression that Angela has become culinarily
spoiled.

Then let her get her own food. She either wakes up when you're preparing food
or fends for herself. I don't know anything about the rest of your parenting,
but from months reading your posts, I've got the unshakable impression that you
coddle Angela in terms of food.

Can she have a low-carb protein shake that will satiate her before lunch? I've
been drinking low-carb Slim Fast, which has reduced my appetite.
