While there's an extensive family history on both sides of the family, my 18.5 year old daughter doesn't have diabetes and doesn't gain weight.
Hi @A DiabetesTeam Member,
I prepare food for everyone in the house. I eat what I can from what I make everyone else. I avoid what I can't eat.
If I need to I can always make a couple of eggs.
When I do the cooking (which is most of the time) if she wants to eat then she eats diabetic as well
If your 18 1/2 yr old daughter doesn't like what you are making for yourself, then perhaps she will work on her culinary skills and cook for herself 😁
In my home my nondiabetic husband does the cooking.I eat as little as possible of diabetes unfriendly items and increase the friendly ones
