My husband has his page on this place as I do. We log different foods, and if its a meal that is for my son and husband, I make it his responsibility to know a decent portion. He said he does look at foods and mentally portions better, which this site makes you accountable in doing. For kids and their own likes, medical issues, well that is when you play "line cook". I eat items that I like, so sometimes its like a restaurant. It's my choice, so its doable. Like tonight, I am fixing chicken fried rice because my husband son like that, but for me I am having a different heartier rice, spinach, mushrooms and a portion of pacific cod. I will drink my Mint Tea while I fix theirs, and do mine. Life isn't predictable. :-)0

My husband and I are dieting together. I make spaguetti with lots of veggies and chicken. I make noodles on the side for him. When I serve it, I give him all the olives and most of the chicken and I eat mine without noodles. All dishes I deal with accordingly. My pizza same ingredients accept mine is on a tortilla with lighter cheese and his is on a normal pizza dough. I pre-cook meals. Half-day on Wensday and half-day on Sunday. Freeze half of everything. Make about for or five different dinner-lunch meals at same time. Also, on Wensday make my quinoa and oatmeal with fruit, freeze half of it. Make my own granola on Sunday, enough for the week. I work every day but Sundays and Mondays, my house cleaning day. Right now I'm on my stationary bike writing this. Have to keep moving.0
