[QUOTE="tiredmommy, post: 71755, member: 1722"] You have other kids, so this gets tricky. I have one so I was able to simply eliminate foods from the house that Duckie wouldn't be eating (except for Mom & Dad's secret stash... tee hee! [img]:smile:[/img] ). Have you considered trying a whole foods diet? You make things from scratch. It's trying to adjust at first, but you generally end up saving time & money by doing better meal planning and making ahead or freezing leftovers. You may be able to appease the other kids by slipping them a few bucks to get chips & soda, etc, when they aren't around GFG7. Meaning at school, friends' houses, snacks for activities. The thing is, it does tend to be healthier eating. There aren't the additives and added salt/fats/preservatives this way. We had to go this way when Duckie was on her strict rotation diet, but have maintained a good amount of doing this to date. I use my crock-pot a lot and bake a good deal. My family loves it. My husband loves the $$$ I save by making it from scratch and Duckie gets a kick out of telling her friends that her Mom made it from scratch. [/QUOTE]
