[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know from my own experiences in dieting that boredom in my meal planning leads to eating binges.  I think your kids will rebel (by stopping at the "candy store"; by getting into stashed eating; by eating at friends' houses.[/quote]

this assumes that there is a different kind of food that you can binge on. but if the only food available is of the very same kind you won’t binge.[/quote]

Agree. Kids don’t have access to stores. [/quote]

Do you not plan to go grocery shopping, ever?  Do you not plan to ever visit other people? Turn on your tv or device?  Your kids will be exposed to other foods.  Unless you live in a cabin in the woods.  Feeding your child a diet of fish and rice is not a good way of getting your children to self limit. It teaches them nothing about how to handle treats and high fat foods.

I know because this was my parents' approach.  No carbs or cookies or treats in our house!  Yet somehow I was very overweight...[/quote]
