Very important to learn this type of food prep since when you lose all the weight you want, you will still need to make healthy food choices not to put it all back on!!!!!
I do the exact same thing! I told my kids that I wouldn't make a special meal for someone, we would all eat the same thing. I have made stir fry twice this week, (which everyone loves!!) and they have had rice I haven't. If I make chicken and have broccoli I may make them mac and cheese and I'll have a salad instead, but I'm telling you, it takes to long to prepare this food to have to make special accommodations for other members of your family. they need to eat healthy too!Originally Posted by SuperSweet
I don't recommend doing that! I have a large family and the food I need to eat on the program (social meal) is healthy and good for all of them. I do make a few little changes...Stir fry...they get rice, I don't - Burgers..they get buns - Steaks we all get meat & veggies but they get baked potatoes...taco salad...they get crushed chips etc.... It is quite simple to add in a bit extra for the family and still not feel like you are singled out!!!!!Very important to learn this type of food prep since when you lose all the weight you want, you will still need to make healthy food choices not to put it all back on!!!!!
I am so excited with how quickly the weight is coming off and so far it has not been to difficult. The hardest part for me is thinking about how long it will be before I can have a piece of cheese, etc. again! I am glad to find these forums and hope I can support and inspire someone along the way. Thanks for all the great tips already!
