I know what you mean about the tall thin husband, Judy! My husband is the same and can eat whatever he likes and I really snapped at him when he last offered me chocolate - he knows better now LOL

The kids are also slim and I would like to get them off sugar but am trying to set an example first. So I have been successful for about a month now. I tell myself that the first bit of sugar to touch my lips will be the end of me. That way I have managed to stay off it.

I must say I am not counting carbs like I should, I am just trying to break the sugar addiction first and then I'll get stricter. However, I am not going mad on carbs and only have the occasional potato or rice in the evening.
