My problem is mainly what he eats when I'm not doing the cooking. He lacks a source of lean meat and basically fills up on carbohydrates. He eats bread all the time, and since he's hungry again a short time later, he eats more bread. Of course, it's never plain bread. He includes a lot of mayo and cheese.
His weight it out of control and he is only getting bigger.
His dad was a very fit man. Nonetheless, he died at 42 from a heart attack.
My husband is sensative about the topic of his weight. Does anyone have advice for me? |
Funchy had a lot of good advice
that bread,mayo ,cheese has got to go
if he cannot give up the bread than buy wholegrain -but it has to say wholegrain ,high fiber bread
for a snack if he still wants to eat cheese
he can make mini pizza's using wholegrain pita bread ,meat free pizza sauce and low fat cheese
I use organic cheese
kids like these too
add more fruit
and salads ( veggies )
it can be done simply as to not put you through so much extra cooking
good luck
