Hang in there!

With my husband, I included him in all the menu plans and grocery shopping. Then he saw me getting healthier, after several months, he started wanting to try "my" soy milk, and other things. Now, 2 years later, he is 95% on the IBS diet (he was a big milk drinker all his life, now he PREFERS soy) and has lost that 15 pounds he wanted to lose--without dieting! But every so often, he wants a steak, so I just throw a piece of chicken on the grill beside it. What worked for me was: be patient with him, letting him get used to the changes, I tried not to "nag" him about his eating, and if he complained about a dish, we found a compromise.

Best of luck--you WILL get there.

Congrats on teaching your children healthy eating habits!
