We've been inspired to cut out sugar as much as we really can, we have been so lax about it really and I'm now feeling bad about how much sugar my ds and us eat.
Anyone successfully cut back on this kind of thing? I did low carb before DS but understand a LCHF diet isn't really the best for littles.
What do you have for breakfast? Lunches? Dinner? Snacks? (DS is a grazer really) He eats a lot of fruit, but know this is probably just as bad.
Typically he will have toast and jam or cereal (weetabix or cornflakes) for breakfast. Food at nursery, then a light evening meal, an apple/orange/banana/raisins, maybe a ricecake, another weetabix before bed. If not at nursery he will eat all of the above fruits in a day, usually go out for an icecream at the park, will allow yogurt coated rice cake all this on top of his 2 main meals of lunch and dinner (fish pie and peas/a homemade curry and rice then a picnic type sandwich, raisins, cucumber, pepper, cheddars type thing) am realising his sugar intake is far too high, we also need to reduce the treats as they are no longer that and becoming the norm.
