Regarding the nagging. We always been pretty relaxed in term of sugar, candy, ice creme and snacks in general. As long as she eats real food first, we don't impose strict limits on when our daughter can eat snacks. The result is pretty interesting, she's eats a lot less than any other child I know, almost never nags about candy and never over-eats. When we see friends it's pretty clear that they child have an unhealthy relationship to snacks. It is a constant nagging and if they the parents finally cave in, the kids will eat as much as possible as quickly as possible.
