Oh I want to rant! I tried a new recipe for dinner, Shrimp with green beans and my husband and sons refused to eat it. It was spicy, had chili's in it. I thought it was good, and I can use for leftovers this week. The rant continues, my husband has lost about 15 lbs, just by eating more fruits- so he says. if it was so easy, why hadn't he ( or me) dropped it before. Eating an orange for breakfast is good, but it's not going to be enough to make a significant impact. so while on one hand I know i need to overhaul EVERYTHING and need to make drastic changes, i am also struggling for balance. I keep thinking of some wise person who said " healthy dieting is more than a one day of low calories, it is a daily process." so here is to the next good choice, the next healthy meal, the planned work out.

Oh, my husband has done the same! Only eats as much as I eat, cut out beer and now he exercises 3 or 4 times a week. He will eat whatever I serve, but forget about getting any help! I found that Woman's Day magazine has months of dinner menus WITH SHOPPING LISTS to go with them! This works well for me, so I don't have to think about dinner. One day at a time, every day for the rest of our lives - good luck to you!

Pfft. Men lose weight MUCH easier than women. Not fair, but true! Better to not compare yourself with anyone else, and just concentrate on your healthy journey! Hey, if the rest of the family doesn't like what you cook - that's more for your future meals! Heck, I'd probably be putting chili's in everything and letting everyone else fend for themeselves if they didn't like it! ;) Have a great week!

Men sometimes drive me crazy with their let-me-give-up-bread-and-lose-a-bazillion-pounds nonsense. Hahaha. You'll get there!!!

Nanny nanny boo boo. :P It's not that easy for us either, I promise. Though we do have certain advantages.
