So, they have only quick snacks through whole day since morning until they get home at 4-5? That does not sound healthy to me.



quick snacks through whole day

No, a decent breakfast, then sandwiches for lunch, maybe a small snack around 2, then a warm dinner at 4-5.

edit: in general I would say that focusing what and how much you eat is far more important than focusing on when you eat if you care about health outcomes. Eating a quick healthy snack once every other hour is a lot better than junk food twice a day.


If you care about health outcomes, teenage boys should eat 3000 calories or more. Teenage girls should eat 2500 calories or more. Packing it into meals like described is basically impossible without junk food in the mix, if they do not have real lunch. There is decent breakfast, then nothing but snacks and sandwiches until dinner at 4-5 and I guess maybe second dinner after.
