    My daughter went through almost the Same thing at the Same age. Her only diffference was that I could only get her to eat yogurt. She is now 13 and a very beautiful healthy young lady.

    However, I am going to advise you to do what I did. Visit her pediatrician. We went and the doctor said that this happens to some young kids and that we were lucky that she was eating healthy foods. Don't pressure, don't force her to eat anything other than what she wants to eat when she wants to eat it, therefore making eating a relaxing experience rather than stressful.

    After a few months she resumed her normal eating pattern and all was well.
    Please visit your doctor so that she/he can obtain the proper blood levels and make sure your daughter is going through the same or similar that I experienced.
