I know this is an old post. My 11 month old daughter is so active that she hardly took a spoon. The solution for feeding her was sitting in front of tv on the floor and putting her on my lap so her body is rather inclined, somewhere between lying and sitting. H would then put her favorite kid show on and while she is watching, put soup in her mouth. The soup is neither very solid nor runny. Every four to five spoons I also offer a sip of water. Sometimes I record the shows that she loves and she actually overstuffs herself! What a change from a fussy eater to a great eater in just a few days! It was my mum who suggeted this method by the way.
