    Sorry about the thread title, I can't think of another way of phrasing it!


    I've dropped 22kg in the last 3 months and I have another 8 to go, so I'm still cutting.

    I've gone and got back with my girlfriend in the mean time and basically need recipe ideas that'll suit for both of us, ie she can enjoy, but that won't hamper me.

    Anyone got any that their partners are keen on too?

    I'm sure if you explain to her your goals she will happilly tag along with you. Bear in mind most women want to "lose weight"

    There are so many tasty healthy recipes out there. Spices are your key.

    Ok quick example, cassarole.
    fry onion garlic chicken in coconut oil until brown.. Add to cassarole dish. Add veg of choice, eg sweet potato, peppers, courgette, spinach then tin of tomatoes, tomato puree, stock and herbs and spices of your choice. Just stick in oven for at least 1/2hr-longer if potatoes used.
    So good, easy and comforting on a cold miserable june day.

    Relationships are so fattening. :D

    You can't beat crustless quiche stuffed full of veg, it's even nicer cold.

    I made this curry but I replace the coconut milk with low fat coconut milk and not as much sugar. I eat it with brown rice. Its very nice, simple to make and not too spicy either.

    My oh eats what I eat just bigger portions + potatoes or rice.

    Never run into any problems.
