When DH complains about the grocery bill, I recite

what someone said.. maybe on this list, I can't

remember: " Would you rather die young and rich, or old

and poor? " LOL. I tell him it's not too expensive to

buy healthy food on its own, it's buying healthy food

PLUS all the crap DH and kids want (chips, teddy

grahams, etc.) He knows now that if he wants that

stuff, he has to go buy it himself. The kids have

been satisfied eating raisins, bananas, baby carrots

dipped in ranch, and peanut butter on celery for

snacks, since I stopped buying the teddy grahams.

It's amazing what they will eat when there are no

other options.

If they are hungry enough..they will eat the good stuff. When I first started to buy wheat bread my kids refused sandwiches & toast. I stuck with it and refused to buy white and after awhile they gave in. Now the wheat bread is all they eat. Recently we had out of town guests with little ones and I bought them the bread they like, white bread with no crust. My son, who is 14, saw it on the counter and said "what is with the fake bread?" LOL My kids continued to eat the wheat while the others ate the white.

When I go to a fast food place and order a hamburger, I usually get a diet

soda as well. It's because the regular ones are far too sweet for my teeth!

My molars actually hurt from the sugar! And I don't have caveties.

My kids have always had " wheat bread " , so they were

used to eating brown bread. Not 100% whole wheat,

though. So when I switched them over to whole grain,

they didn't really seem to notice, except they don't

like the sunflower seeds, LOL. I'm going to start

making the whole wheat bread that's in the orange

cookbook, I just need to get some gluten flour first.

Ok, I never once in that whole paragraph said anything about Diabetics eating unhealthy. There is nothing wrong with burgers and fries if they are done right . wrote:
