Just wanted to share what happened last night when i got home from work...

My BF got home about 2 hours earlier than I did last night..
So when i get home... he is cooking/ baking... No biggie right??
So he wants me to taste this sauce... that is part of the Chicken dish he is making...

I am at first very skeptical... he is not lowcarbing with me... although i have been pushing for him to start... slowly but surely.. N E ways...

I keep going what is in the sauce?? before i taste it.... and he keeps saying, "you can have it.. I PROMISE!!!"

So i tasted it... YUMMY!!!...
I keep bugging him about where he got the recipe...
and guess what he pulls out of the recipe box....

A LOW CARB RECIPE He went online and found it all by himself

I was soooo excited... as we have both been making separate meals for about 7 weeks..
And he loved the meal he made so much.. he said he might start this diet with me someday soon... but was still alittle sketchy about when...

I just had to share... I was sooo excited

wow thats so sweet! I think Ill have to pass this story on to my bf

You're so lucky!! My dh has supported me and his daughter eating this way, but has made NO effort to try to learn to cook this way (he is otherwise a very good cook). I think he likes having me do all the meals!
Maybe I need to go on strike

Pretty sweet! My DH has been supportive - but I can't get him to Low-carb, so I'm trying really hard to make sure all our dinners are suitable for his lower fat diet!

Aww, sounds like a keeper.

About the only time mine does something liek that is when he's hoping to get something in return ;p

All Right !!! High Five

He is a keeper... We have been together over 2 yrs... and lived together the whole time.... he has gained weight at the same pace as me... over 2 yrs have both gained about 30lbs. each...

Well, he is seeing my great results... and skeptical about giving up all his french fries... and Dunkin Donuts Coolata's...and bagels...

But I think he is coming around... since i am taking the lead by example role instead of the nagging like i usually do

Here is a Picture...

Great pic. You are lucky. It is hard to find supportive men. Where can I find one of them. Sign me up. lol.

Rachelle, you and your BF are so cute together! Congrats on finding a keeper that can cook My DH couldn't scramble an egg if he had to, and believe me I've tried to teach him! 'S'ok, though, he's a good guy and eats my LC cooking without complaint.

Cheers

What a sweet story

How wonderful!!!! Although my hubby is very supportive...I don't think he would ever do that. He will cook on the grill (all low-carb), but he wouldn't go as far as to look up a recipe.

Sounds like you have a great man!!!

Yes, he is definitely a keeper!

Now...can you share that recipe with us???

Congrats! My wife has finally gotten the hang of Atkins recipes. Its so nice to have her support.

BTW, what does DH stand for? I've gotten YMMV, BY/GF...

Are there any others that will come up? Please for give the newbie...

How sweet!!! What a good guy!

There are plenty more acronyms that can be found in the Low Carb Tips link on the orange bar at the top of the page. Click, then look at the bottom of the page for "Low Carb Lingo".

Lots of good info at the links on the orange bar.
