I don't eliminate anything from my diet, but I do try to eat healthily. We don't buy snacks in packets here (except for 1-2 packets of muesli bars a year for 'emergencies') so snacks here are fruit and veggies, cheese or yoghurt (I buy organic) or homemade bikkies or muffins (and nuts for DH and I). With the baking, I try to use mainly wholemeal flour, very little sugar (I often Google for recipes or I muck around with ones I have - apple puree works well) and lots of fruit. I like oats in my baking too!

For main meals, try substituting the usual carbs with different grains. I really like quinoa atm Do you have a vege garden?

I used to have a bread maker but not sure what happened to it. I'd definitely be making it from scratch if I were you. I was only thinking last week I'd love to make my own bread again...rye, spelt, lots of grains etc Yummmmmm!
