Hi...Thank you for consulting in Health Care magic.
At her age interest in play increases and interest in food decreases. This is quite natural. If she is active and playing around you need not worry. This age rather than the quantity of the food I suggest you concentrate more on the number of times you feed her and also make whatever you feed her calorie dense by adding good amount of ghee to it.
If your kid is active and developmentally normal, please do not worry.
Birth weight of 2 kg and now at 2.5 years - 8 kg is good.
Hope my answer was helpful for you. I am happy to help any time. Further clarifications and consultations on Health care magic are welcome. If you do not have any clarifications, you can close the discussion and rate the answer. Wish your kid good health.
