Picky eaters/cheap food.
My whole family are the pickiest eaters I have ever seen. It's been a battle for years. My 2 youngest kids have sensory eating issues. Like it's not a matter of them not wanting to eat healthy.

Anyone else? I'm beginning to seriously think I have some kind of an addiction to heat in my food.

Cereal - Weetabix or bust!
Breakfast cereals are a con in that the serving suggestions on the box are ridiculously small..The only cereal i can satisfy myself with which is low in calories in the process is by having 4 weetabix (2 bowls) with 350ml of 1% milk. That is a generous amount of milk and the total calories for this breakfast is 412…

Will dropping to 150 net carbs a day help with fat loss?
