What Does Your Toddler Eat?

Little J will be 2 years old soon and I am not really looking forward to toddler tantrums and fussy eating. Up till now we have had the perfect child. He pleasant, funny, a good sleeper and a really good eater, I don't want it to change.
I am going to keep a note of all, if any changes and blog about them over the next months but just something playing on my mind at the moment is food. I am not 100% sure how much little J should be eating and how often. I have googled but their is so much difference between one toddler to the next.
Little J likes most things you put in front of him and will eat until he's had enough and pushes it away but I think he may be losing weight. He has aged 2-3 in trousers for a while but now they seem to be hanging off him.
This is a typical day.

7-8am - Breakfast 

Porridge, croissant or toast
Yoghurt
Water or very weak juice
11am - Lunch

Small tin of pasta shapes, beans and sausage, egg and beans or a sandwich
Cake Bar such as a mini roll, banana or raisins
Water or very weak juice
2pm - Mid afternoon snack

Depends what he had for lunch but usually a biscuit or a small portion of skips or wotsits
Water
4-4:30pm - Dinner

A smaller version of what we are having for dinner.
Lasagne, Curry, Chicken, Spaghetti Bol, Pizza
Mash, Vegetables, beans,
A cold dessert such as ice cream or mousse
Waterer or very weak juice
6:30pm

8oz Bottle of Milk
How does that sound? Too much, too little, just right? Its hard isn't it knowing whats best but I guess he never seems hungry and he sleeps well so maybe i'm just being paranoid but I really would love to know your thoughts.
