Would it be terribly inconvenient to eat at different times from her? My wife and I rarely eat at the same time. I always have 3 options in the fridge and we eat what we are in the mood for.

Your wife really should eat some kind of complex carb. It's necessary for work outs. My wife loves whole wheat sammich thins.



She also takes a lot of Advocare Pills. I don't know what's in them but I'm pretty sure it's uppers.

I'll check it out. We live together and being that I work nights and she works days, we don't usually eat together. But I will do a lot of the grocery shopping during the day while she's working just to get it done so she doesn't need to worry about it. She still goes, but that's besides the point.

For some reason she's completely opposed to eating bread right now.

And I'm not sure how I feel about joining Pinterest. If they guys I work with found out I was using it, they'd never let me forget.

I'm confused as to why anyone would think that baked chicken, every day, is a healthy diet. If you're after lean protein, then leaner cuts of pork (tenderloin, for ex) or non fatty fish are just as "good" as boneless, skinless chicken, and legumes (beans, peas, lentils) are even better than chicken.

Can you do some red beans and brown rice, or lentils and brown rice? (less rice for her, more for you) Not sure how/why diet and healthy have come to mean "repetitious" and "limited" in her eating scheme. No healthy eating plan is gonna be a long term success without variety.

And why do the veg have to be steamed, for pete's sake? Grilling & seasoning doesn't make 'em less nutritious.

Check out Penzey's Spices: a whole range of salt-free blends might save y'all from an endless spring progression of tasteless chicken. LINK I use the Arizona Dreaming blend to make chicken tacos all the time. Look for "ultragrain" tortillas, too.
