    Parents Night Time Practice and Dinner

    Our practice schedule just came out for the fall. My DD is schedule three nights a week from 6pm-9pm and Saturday afternoons. We usually eat dinner between 7-7:30 due to it typically being a time when everyone is home. I do not mind feeding her separately. Would you feed your gymnast dinner...

    MAG New dinner routine?

    My son's schedule will have him in the gym from 5-9 multiple days a week. It is about a half hour drive each way. How do y'all plan your dinners for your gymnast? I am leaning towards something light like a snack or sandwich prior to practice, and then having a hot, heavier meal waiting for him...

    When and what for dinner?

    Last year I had training from 5.30-8.30 but this year it has changed to 5.30-9. I used to have dinner after training around 9 but now it would not be until 9.30. Any suggestions for how I should handle what time I have my dinner and what I could have that can be easily made and portable - I...

    Parents skipping dinner b/c of late practice

    My gymmie (9.5) gets home from gym around 8:30 3x per week. This is a new schedule for us. She eats a biggish snack before gym at 4:15ish -like a smoothie or yogurt. After gym she just hasn't been eating much at all -only a few bites of whatever I make her (which are her usual dinner...

    Parents send dinner to school?

    Currently DD finishes gym at 8pm. When I drive her home I pack her a dinner that she eats in the car so that when she gets home she can shower and do homework and get to bed. Lately we have started carpooling home more and I am considering sending DD with a packed dinner so that she can eat...

    Parents Daughter made team--but how does this dinner thing work?

    My daughter, who has been in rec classes for 10 months, was asked to join the level 3 team. We're all very excited, and she starts next week. The schedule, though, is 4:30-7:30 two nights a week, and 5:00-8:00 a third night. We eat dinner on at 6:15pm, on the dot, all together, so this will be...

    WAG Dinner Trouble

    As a gymnast, we spend half our lives in the gym. And with a 40 minute drive each way, I find myself not eating very well because I grab what is quickest. So does anyone out there have any advice? What do you eat for lunch? What do you normally eat after practice? Or parents, what do you give...

    Parents Gym hours and family dinner

    I'm curious to know how other gym parents handle crazy gym hours and dinner. DD is currently a L4 going 11 hrs a week, which I know is pretty minimal compared to what a lot of you are doing. Two of the nights she's home by 7 so we are all able to eat together, but the other two nights, her hours...

    Off Topic What's for dinner?

    Dinner (actually snacks, lunch, breakfast name it), is always a source of stress for me. With varying taste buds, appetites, time (we eat in shifts because of sports) and my lack of expertise in the kitchen, it is a daily struggle. Care to share any of your favorite, kids favorite easy dinner...

    What to do about dinner?

    Hi guys, I'm somewhat new, so consider this my big hello to all! :D My current dilemma is that my practice times (3x a week) go from either 7:30-9:30pm or 8pm-10pm. In order to make it in time to the gym I have to leave one hour early, so subtract an extra hour off the start time and add...

    How do you fit dinner in?

    I do have some time after school before practice, but when I eat dinner so close before practice, I feel really uncomfortable during practice, but if I don't eat dinner, I am not getting home until around 9-10 p.m. What should I do :confused: (We aren't allowed snacks during practice)

    Off Topic Great Turkey Dinner

    Does anyone else feel as though they gained about 10 pounds after dinner for Thanksgiving? We started with fresh onion dip and vegetable and cheese platters then moved to the main dinner which consisted of a giant turkey, stuffing, fresh and canned cranberry sauce, cauliflower, carrots...
