It's just hubby and I and I'm a phenomenal cook. I made some chicken stock yesterday and when I strained it and put it into quart containers, realized I made about 1 1/2 gallons. How did you adjust to cooking small portions? I'm not real big on leftovers and don't want to eat something for 2 weeks! LOL.

When I read this, I just remembered making baby food for my daughters years ago. For chicken broth or other food, I'd just freeze it in an ice cube tray, and put it in a gallon freezer zip lock bag & into the freezer. That way you can take out just the amount you want to eat or cook with.

This is the major "issue" I've not fully accepted. I, too, am a phenomenal cook; people love my food, and so do I!

It is sooooo annoying not cooking as I used to do, and LOVE to do. And I'm a single woman (alas), so I don't have to cook for others with any regularity...unless I have a party, etc, which as been rare of late.

But I am loving practically all else since VSG, so I have to just accept some things.

At least you can cook for the hubby; just know your amounts will change.
