Do you feed your family your WLS meals or do you cook a separate meal?

I work 12 hour shifts so on days I work my mom cooks whatever and I eat when I get home, but days im off, I cook  (alot of Michelles recipes) and my family happily eats whatever I give them. We rarely eat pasta and potatoes and no rice.

They eat what I eat I guess.  If they don't like it, they make their own.  :o)

It's just DH and me.  We pretty much eat the same way, although he's not such a fan of chicken, and I can't do steak very well anymore.  So on nights when he wants a steak, I'll have a chicken breast. 

They eat what I eat.  It's just my DH and my uncle in the house, so when I cook, I just give them bigger portions.

In the early stages, my daughter and I pretty much ate the same thing - she was able to lose 60 pounds by eating properly.  Now, I cook three or four times a week for my boyfriend, and I always make him some sort of side dish.  He's not a veggie person.  I usually have a spoonful of the pasta or potatoes, but I eat salad or vegetables with my protein.  The rest of the week, he takes me out, and I try to eat sensibly, but usually bring home lunch for the next day. 

I'll make an extra side for the guys, but mostly we eat the same.     Jules

We all pretty much eat the same way. I cook dinner the same way I did before WLS. I just pass on the rice or whatever other not so pouch friendly side I make them. Dinner is the only meal we eat together, if my hubby comes home for lunch I make him and the baby a sandwich and I nibble on a lunchable.

We all eat the same way....I figure that is going to help my kiddies get used to healthy eating as well

My kids are grown so they usually cook for themselves or they eat what I eat.
