I'm so interested in this! Some meals or even days DD will barely eat and other times she eats more than I do at a meal!
She is 16 months and we try to not limit food (other than obviously unhealthy occasional treats). If she seems to be eating a lot of a certain component of a meal I may cut her off from that but still allow her as many veggies as she wants.

It's all over the place. Tonight for dinner, I think he ate almost 1/3 lb. of sausage, along with some sweet potato fries and a few nibbles on broccoli. But sometimes he basically doesn't eat dinner.

The only limitations we place on food is that he doesn't get to eat all of something--tonight he couldn't take a third helping of sausage until everyone else had an opportunity for seconds--and we limit toppings. (For example, he might eat an entire tub of sour cream if given the option. We let him have a few scoops and then put it back in the refrigerator.)

I limit certain things- like she will eat tons of cheese and I'm afraid if I let her eat as much as she wants she will make herself sick. And I always give fruit at the end of a meal
Because she will just fill up on that instead of more filling foods. And sometimes i won't open another package of something. But unless it's for a specific reason like that I let her eat what she wants.
