    My husband is the same! He can eat whatever he wants and still looks trim and fit. Its torture when he sits on the couch at night with a big bowl of ice cream while my tummy is growling lol. I do notice that the times I "fall off track" are when I'm with him...I can control my cravings while I'm by myself..but while he's sitting next to me eating what I'm craving, I give in! I'm not saying its his fault, I'm the one who has to watch out for my own body, but I have talked with him and asked him to be a little more supportive, and maybe have his ice cream before I get home from work.

    One new food that I've been REALLY enjoying lately is vanilla or strawberry/banana yogurt with blueberries and cinnamon on top! It tastes like a dessert (and I've got a serious sweet tooth!). I also recently discovered the laughing cow cheese wedges. 1 cheese wedge for only 35 calories! I love the Garlic and Herb flavor spread on a few saltine crackers.

    Home made vegetable soups seem to be a good staple, its filling, low in calories but still nutritious.(I'm not enjoying it as much now though with the warmer weather over here...time to start coming up with new salad ideas!!)
