Doesn't sound like a high quality diet if it leaves you hungry and doesn't
work! Have you noticed much difference in your bg yet?

I'm trying to get my daughter to cut down on her carbs. It ain't easy! She's
quite athletic now, very fit, into team sports and all that. I'm worried
about where she'll be in twenty years. Hard to get that through to a fifteen
year old girl!
Anyway, I'm buying a lot less of the crappy food for her and more of the
healthy stuff. Slowly. I don't want her to catch on. Also, I didn't want it
to be a "do as I say and not as I do" kind of thing. Now that I've been
eating better and losing weight for a while I am getting to the point where
I have some ground to stand on.
Now, if I could just get her to clean her room.
