[quote=Anonymous]You’re fine, OP. My mom just straight up doesn’t like sugar very much so she only very rarely has dessert with the family. Sometimes she’d have herbal tea to be social, or a very small piece of cake but it was never an issue that she mostly abstained. BIL is like this too so now they often share coffee for holiday meals (they’re also the only two in the family who like coffee). My dad adores sweets so we had (often very sugary) desserts every night. My sisters and I all grew up healthy with a totally normal relationship with food/sugar. Eat what makes you feel good and don’t be overly restrictive with your kids and it’ll be fine. One thing I would suggest is finding something (doesn’t have to be food) that you can treat yourself with so they can see you indulging and enjoying yourself and know that you think it’s fine to do things that make you happy, sugar just isn’t necessarily that thing for you.[/quote]
