So my son's weight is spiraling out of control.

He is about to turn 11. He is autistic and has always seriously craved carbs. I have relented, especially since my husband brings them home again and again.

I have finally put my foot down and at least taken wheat out of the house. I don't care what my husband thinks of my "restricting the family" at this point - my son is 4'6" and 101 lbs.! He is OBESE and he is A CHILD.

I was wondering what you LC parents give your children instead of bread. My son doesn't like vegetables much (yeah, I know, if there's nothing else, eventually they'll eat, but take pity, it is HARD with an intellectually delayed child who literally can't understand - and who, by the way, has started to sneak food, to my horror).

Until now he has loved his sandwiches. I'm seeing wheat free isn't working with the substitutes (like pancakes, bread, etc.). I had thought this would ease him in but he's craving just as badly.

Would love any help.
