Just thought of a good discussion. how many of you have different meal plans in the household? How do you deal with them?
For example - in our household we have 3 different diets:
Mine: Hypoglycemic and needing to loose weight - so high protein, complex carbs, low calorie
Mom's: Diabetic Insulin Dependent - so low carb, high protein, maintain - slow weight loss
Daughter: History of Being underweight due to seizures and abdominal problems - so she eats higher fat then we do, and needs to eat more (not to mention she is not a meat eater unless its poultry / steaks)
we keep munchies in the house as she does eat throughout the day, but also keep fresh fruits for snacks.
the only thing our diets are similar are the protein! lol. not atypical for us all to eat seperately and different meals. when we do cook a similar meal, usually lots of veggies, wildr or brown rice, and a good protein.
Am actually considering pluggin in my daughters number just to see what she needs to maintain as she is at a good weight now. hmm...

In my house, its just my husband and I----we eat totally differently! We even shop seperately
I make my meals, he makes his. Sometimes we eat together, and he is very good at making something healthy for me. but for the most part, we find making our own meals fits our lives and schedules best.0 -
I eat different for the most part now since no one else is dieting here. We do different meals though always have for some things because one of my children don't eat any meat.0
