I don't know if this is the best forum for this, but here goes anyway.
My DH is 6'4 and weighs about 240 lbs. He knows he has to lose some weight, but he loves to eat. He's asked me to start cooking really healthy meals, but then complains that they don't taste very good.
I've been blessed with a really great metabolism, and I don't eat all that well myself because I can get away with eating pretty much anything right now. But I know that won't last forever, so I want to start eating healthy too. We don't eat out much and I do most of the cooking, but I do use a lot of convenience foods as well, and we tend to fill up on a lot of carbs.
SO I guess what I'm asking is if anyone knows of any good meal plans to follow that aren't going to cost an arm and a leg. I don't mind if there's a lot of prep work to do as I'm going through a career change and will be working from home so will have more time to cook.
Hopefully what I've said makes sense, and hopefully I'm not asking the impossible. Healthy eating just seems to be so expensive from what I've seen, but it shouldn't be.
