[QUOTE="Spl@, post: 2020974, member: 493821"] I was lucky my family saw benefits to my health with their own eyes from my changed diet. I'm talking about direct family as in partner and any children. I included mine from the start, explained the basic science and as a bonus all now have an awareness of carbs and its possibilities. Mind when my daughter came back from a night out full of pizza and ice cream and showed a bg of 6.5 I cannot say I wasn't jealous. They have carbs with their food and I don't. They have spuds, I have thickly sliced leeks. They have rice I scramble a couple of eggs. Friday is pizza night, they have pizza, mine is a 4 egg (yep naughty me) omelette done in a big pan topped with ham, cheese etc. Looks just like the real thing. Long story short. My different diet is now normal to them. Unfortunately not my parents who think I'm doing myself harm. Although they too have seen the benefit to me and keep their objections to themselves. [/QUOTE]
