Pritikin Recipes
I have been married almost a year to a man with an incredibly fast metabolism. He recently got a new job working 12 or so hours a day. His job is physically demanding so he is usually very hungry when he comes home. I love cooking for him, and I make him hearty meals.
Now the problem…
Before we were married I was able to stick to a pretty restrictive and healthy diet that allowed me to keep my extra weight off. (I struggled with my weight years ago.) Now that I am married I cook heartier meals and we have food around I never would have eaten before. I have gained nearly ten pounds, and I don’t want to gain more. Ideally I would lose what I’ve gained.
We have very different needs as far as quantity, and I know I should work on portion control.
I am looking for some good, practical tips to help me keep from gaining more without making my husband suffer.
My question again was about diet cooking tips and there have been some great answers
