[QUOTE="WhitbyJet, post: 399453, member: 35964"] I am type 2, no medication, I stick to a low carb diet, my family and I eat the same meals, with adaptions, eg I make up a big pot of bolognese sauce, I always add lots of vegetables, eg mushrooms, peppers, garlic, onions, I eat with shredded cabbage sauteed in butter, my 9yr old eats 'cabbetti' = some of my shredded cabbage mixed with spaghetti. Main meals are all the same, we dont ban any food, my children and husband eat much more fruit, I tend to stick to berries and rhubarb. My husband and children eat boiled new potatoes with meals, basically a so called 'healthy diet', I wouldnt expect them to go low carb with me, though my husband and two elder children often join me. I always have sweet treats in the freezer, cakes, muffins, ice cream, sugar free and low carb of course and my family dont bother with sugary stuff from outside, its not forbidden though. I would say all my family knows about healthy eating, my elder two are away at uni and I am pleased to say neither of them is into junk food, they make low carb pizza bases for their friends :) [/QUOTE]
