Out of Control

hinzee4

Why can't I only eat what I'm supposed to even if there is more of it. My wife cooks way to much and I can't control that. (I've tried to no avail.) I can only control me! But I feel the need to finish left overs so they don't go to waste. But I'm going to waste. I gained 2 lbs. this week due to that mainly. I can only control me and what I put in my mouth! I have the tools, the knowledge, etc. but seem to always lose it. Anyways, done with my rant! Thanks for listening!!

This journey is all about you, and you only. If you have the mind set you can do anything. Get a scale and measure your food. It is okay to have leftovers, especially if you have pets they love left overs. Google cooking for the amount of people in your home and no more. It works I have had to go from cooking for a large group to two. It is possible. Just remember your goals.

Good luck

Leftovers are great! I freeze them in lunch sized portions to take with me to work.

I have a habit of cooking way too much! We bought a seal a meal machine now my husband has just gotten into the habit of freezing leftovers and has great lunches throughout the week. It save $ too!

i agree with the others, save the leftovers for lunch or dinner the next day!

Sounds like an excuse to eat. Change this and you change your life (its really that drastic).

Gotta love the Seal A Meal machine! I make extra of everything now, just so I can freeze meals for later.
