Living with non diabetic

have not been able to follow up as got busy with work. So looks like best course of action is to cook food as a non diabetic would do and then choose what to eat from that,

This way she wont miss out and I can have what i want.

The only downside is the slippery slope of seeing carbs and then caving in :) ( As happened to me recently on a trip to India)

But onward and upwards , so will be looking to do strict keto again.

or you could cook your yummy keto stuff and then add in one extra carb portion to her plate.

you will be less tempted to poach her carbs of there is only enough for her :)
 
Mrs A is non-diabetic but has happily almost completely gone over to my low-low carb diet. She adds some bread and a couple of treat elements that I avoid but we are 90% eating the same food. Mutual weightloss. It helps that I do all the cooking and enjoy doing it.
 
When I was first diagnosed with T2, my husband, who'd taken early retirement, had been doing the shopping (online) and cooking our main meal since then. At first he was supportive, and I was able to eat most shared meals just without the carby stuff. However it got to the point where we ended up with issues over some things I wanted to buy or eat, and I ended up opting to cater for myself, which has actually resulted in a far better and hassle free low carb diet for me.
