Well all i can say is there is 5 people that live in our house and everyone is seeing the benefits of eating alot more healthy and not everyone is following SW in our house but we all work together as a unit to support each other and every single one of us understands its a better way of eating for the rest of our lives and that it can add years onto your life by not abusing our bodys anymore.

And yes i have abused my body for most of my life eating and drinking like a man possessed so i know what its like.

I have to agree with the previous comments about having those things in, before I had kids I was a healthy BMI and had that mindset, I ate low GI and never bought "junk" or bread, white pasta, biscuits etc so I was never tempted, however I realised after having kids that it didn't work out that way, as yes I had much more calorific food in, and was making lots of dishes like high fat macaroni cheese ( my youngest was underweight as a baby), little things like having full fat milk in the fridge and making a big pan of porridge for all four of us with full fat milk etc. and because I was so used to just pretending those things didn't exist, I gained 3 stone in 3 years after having my son.

To me now it's about managing realistically with that temptation, yes we have currently have crisps, cake( OH's birthday) chocolate ( for trick or treaters), full fat milk, cheese, Philadelphia, bread etc, and I'm just needing to teach myself that I can make cheese sandwiches for the kids lunches without needing to have one myself, or eat their leftover toast/ unwanted snacks etc
