Is this genuinely the only thing he now eats? Wow! And what about drinks? Any way you can add something like Complan or something to his milk?
I would suggest you try the reward system ... (this idea I got long ago from someone else, so can't claim it as my own
)
He is two, so he should understand it ...
firstly draw/print off a picture of something with two dots with eyes and each time he finishes food, let him colour a circle in. Then after he's done 2, reward him with something he really likes. Next time, increase it to something with three dots like a tricycle, and then once he's completed the dots, he gets the reward. etc etc.
Good luck Venus, it's very worrying when one's child doesn't eat properly - I hope you can find a solution soon!
