DH has the same type family history. He has dropped almost 60 pounds since June, so what he is doing is working! No sauces as well as cutting out carbs and sugar helps tremendously. I only eat the same dinner as he does, but even just keeping that one meal healthy I feel a lot better!Off campus! That sounds delicious! Yeah before I started looking into healthier things I was eating a lot of pasta/hamburger helper/pizza/Chinese takeout. It all tastes good but I noticed myself feeling lethargic and puffy(thanks to all the carbs). My dad's side of the family has a slew of health problems- high cholesterol, obesity, heart attack, diabetes, high blood pressure, you name it they probably have it. That coupled with just wanting to feel better I decided to try and be healthier! But as a full time student and working 25+ hours a week, it's hard to find meals that I don't dread making knowing they'll take forever.
Sorry that was a long rant/explanation haha but thank you for the grilling idea!
