I learned in my "How to be a good diabetic class, that we really do need to watch those carbs because they = sugar. My favorite meal is quite simple, fatfree and healthy as all get out:<BR/>Weekly I shop for my veggies. At home, I cut everything up and store in snack-size ziplocks. When I'm ready to cook I just pull them out of the fridge and dump them into my pan [which I've sprayed with olive oil "Pam"--only generic. The spray gives you the healthy part of the olive oilm but not the fats] and I sautee onions, zuchinni, bell peppers, mushrooms and tomatoes. Sometimes I add a little carrott or even a few olives. I also use a few raisins and a handful of pine nuts sometimes. Serve with a veggie burger and it is a main meal. With a little changing around, you can cook for the whole family this way, which makes dieting a whole lot easier than if you're having to fix the family something else.<BR/><BR/>Your goal is quite reasonable.

Now all I can think about is how fat I'm going to look in the wedding pictures. Good luck. I'm sure you'll do great!
