Please don't say that my husband should cook his own meals, because it's easier said than done. I don't need any resentment, negative energy coming from him as it will just make me want to dive into something terrible, like chocolate cake.
Tomorrow morning my husband leaves for 2 1/2 weeks. I think this will give me the opportunity to create some good cooking and meal habits since I won't have to cook for two. I can get rid of some of the crap food that has been sitting in the cupboard. I can reorganize my pantry so I know what foods I can eat and what foods are a no-no for me.
Wish me luck.
I have to cook separately for both my husband and my son. 3 meals! My husband doesn't like the healthy meals, and my son is autistic and only eats about 4 things. I like to plan ahead on the weekends and make up easy to make meals for both my hubby and I. I'll make up a big lasagna, cut it up and freeze each piece individually for him. Things like that. Makes it a bit easier.
