My youngest is 19, so what I eat isn't much of an issue longer, unless the kids come home to visit. Even then, I try to keep a snack of some kind around in case they or other company stop by.

One concern I have about young children, what about the effects of artificial sweeteners and other additives on children? I honestly think I'd rather see my kids eat a wholesome homemade cookie, then a sugar free soda. I think part of the challenge of the WOE is sticking with the wholesome, natural foods. Pasta and potatoes are probably better for children than Diet Coke and sausages every day!
