I never thought I would say this, but my husband has bought into the idea of healthy eating. This is from a guy whose idea of healthy meal is candy. he considers the greens nasty and tasteless.
I told him that i really wanted to loose all the weight I gained while I was pregnant with our first child. He was excited, but when I told him that it would involve him working out with me as well as eating healthy meals. His facial expression was priceless. I knew that arguing with him will lead to nowhere, I decided it was time to compromise.
Here is what went down: I woke up yesterday morning while he was getting ready for work. I told him that I was serious about loosing weight and I wanted his support. he looked at me and said Babe you know I support you but I am not drinking or eating anything nasty. I smiled and I told him he was not been a team player. I walked out.
To my greatest surprise, my hubby woke me up this morning and said he was willing to support me and be a team player. I was so happy and told him that for every meal I prepare that he eats, he is allowed to cheat.
I got up and told him that I would make broccoli cauliflower smoothie for breakfast. He smiled as said please babe can you also make puff puff.
I chose broccoli cauliflower smoothie because it leaves you full and satisfied even though the taste is not the best. Here is the recipe for puff puff , Here, which I posted earlier this month.
Ingredients you will need the smoothie
