Nope.Guess I need to love food a little less.
You need to change the KIND of food you love.
Learn to love fresh fruit and veggies.
Real food, well prepared, is a joy to eat. Even better than all the "stuff" people drown real food in.
Replace two thirds of your starches (bread, pasta, potatoes, etc.) with high-fiber, high-food-value veggies - broccoli, peppers, cabbage etc.
Drop the salad dressings, sauces and the like out completely.
Use fresh (or frozen) fruit for desert.
Those three changes alone will make a huge difference.
(trust me... it's much harder to get the same calories out of cabbage that you get out of potatoes - you get full faster)
The biggest challenge is... it requires the kind of cooking that you can't just throw in a slow-cooker and forget about. You have to love food enough to actually... cook!
