@@sweeteyes504

i've always been amazed, felt bad for people that have to cook for their kids/hubby/parents etc

or just be around the food

it can be hard enough to watch what you eat

but to have all "those" other foods/smells around

that must be terrible!!!

thats great you haven't had any foods you are cooking for family

resisted temptation

it wouldn't "kill" anyone else to try and eat some of the "normal" food you make

you don't' have to tell them its "good"/healthy for them to eat

i have seen on the board that spouses/ family etc will help/support sleever by eating what they cook

surprise, surprise - in the meantime OP loses weight too!!

stay strong!!!

i know you can do it!!!

good luck
