[QUOTE="Resurgam, post: 1515437, member: 355878"] I suspect that taking masses of antibiotics in my teens and early 20s put me on the path to diabetes, but I ate low carb as often as I could get away with it, against doctors' advice. It is not hard to cook meals for yourself which can be adapted for those eating carbs, just by adding a serving of something you used to eat. The only thing which would have made things easier for me would have been a cooker with more than 4 rings, as I was often keeping things warm in the oven or on a hotplate whilst using all four as my family often wanted different things amongst themselves as well - but these days there are far more gadgets for the kitchen than back in the 1980s and 90s. I used to have different shopping lists for different weeks and rewrote them from time to time to alter meals from one week to the other, but having different ingredients on different weeks seemed to make for more variety rather than there always being the same things in the fridge and freezer. Don't worry about bringing up children in a household with a low carb diet background - both my children are tall and slender adults who did well at school and University, though they have always been independent thinkers - they both freelanced as soon as they could find their niche in the world of employment.
