Picky eater: First of all he is a picky eater because he is not growing as much as he did in his first year of life.As to diet whole grains in the form of cereals and whole wheat bread would help. Starchy vegetables like potatoes and rice as well as pastas are also helpful. To round out his diet meat, poultry and fish are important.
