Avoid simple carbs except for around your workout. Complex carbs wont turn you into a diabetic. No one ever got diabetes from eating oats, brown rice, and veggies their entire life.

If you parents think that sitting around eating mcdonalds all day long is healthy, then good luck. People who’s idea of healthy is that far out of whack are difficult to get through to.
How about telling them that obesity has a huge correlation with type 2 diabetes, and that doing no physical exercise combined with eating excess calories (which they are most likely doing if they are consuming mcdonalds and taco bell all day long) is a sure fire way to become obese.
Just do what you know you need to do. Eat big, Lift big, and rest big, and in time when your doctor tells you that you are in great health, when your cholesterol is much lower than theirs, and when you look and feel amazing, then maybe they’ll realize that they were wrong and you were right.
By that time though, when they see the incredible affects that exercise does for not only your health, but also your quality of life, they’ll probably be asking you for help in getting themselves in shape. Nothing speaks louder than actual real world results.
Good luck and good training,
