Remember portion size with everything. I cook a decent amount and when I do I always consider making more than just to eat once meaning leftovers. In doing this portions tend to be smaller because the meal is stretched out between 2 or sometimes 3. This not only saves in spreading the calories across several meals from one dish, but also helps in the wallet. My thinking is cooking at night then bringing in leftovers to work, its a big win. I dont know about you, but my options at work are usually terrible health wise.

Same here! I like your thoughts Chico! What we hope to do is to cook up a bunch of healthy meals for the week and take them for lunch. That way we're not eating out and it helps us to stay on track. This has been the first full week of this, so all we've been able to have time for is the veggie/fruit shakes. I have to say, they're not very good, lol! I tolerate them because I have to "eat" something, lol!
