Hi all, I just started a diet program to help get rid of 65 excess pounds that have crept on over the past 5 years, but I still have to feed a family of 5. So I still need to meal plan and I love to cook. I wanted my family's meals to closely resemble my diet meals. I also wanted to improve and make healthier versions of family favorites.Diet Update

Oh you've got some great ones planned! Especially the kabobs, they sound yummy!
Looks great! The vegetable enchiladas sound good to me, I'm not sure my hubby would like them unless I threw some chicken in there, but I would love them. :) Great job on the weight loss too!
