You’ve known this for years and are now just starting to do something about it?

Animal Based 30 or Carnivore and you will destroy that A1C number in short order. People will downvote and claim you can’t eat those diets but they are just lazy.

As someone with a wife and two kids, I understand this, but your health has to be a priority, particularly with your recent diagnosis.
You may have to make them understand that you have to do your own thing for a while. I get that it may cause some issues (particularly with time and monetary expenses), but again, make your health a priority.

Your kids decide what you eat? This isn’t going to work. Just do the Jared from Subway diet. Walk 30 mins everyday and eat 2 fast food meals a day that are no more than 700 cals each. You will lose weight but you will also look and feel like shite. It’s amazing to me how many people let their kids dictate what they eat. Growing up I had zero say if I didn’t like what my parents cooked I didn’t eat. It was that simple.

Tough love answer incoming, that's complete bullshite. You are responsible for your diet. So if that means you cook or prepare something different than them, so be it. And if the whole family's diet is shite, then you all need to change together and make adjustments as a family.
