He will not eat a potato unless it is in shepherd's pie. However, along with those fries (very few though), he ate skinless, boneless chicken and raw carrots! We do our best! Thanks for keeping tabs on me though...AND good luck with working out with your fiance!! I hope it all works out! Scott is great for me because he pushes me. I don't like it at the time, but I do appreciate it later.

It is really cool to NOT go for the unhealthy choices. Shows that the food does not have control over you. We always have a choice. Great for you Angie!

He had leftover sausage from "make your own mini pizza night" (which is short for I am at they gym late and too tired to cook for them). I was tempted but I know that the time I just spent in the gym is not going to go to waste. I am trying to help my wife stop saving little leftovers like that. I tend to scour the fridge every few days for those little minefields. Great job! Angie,

I think many of us were raised to be members of the 'clean plate' club with comments like 'think of all the staving children in the world who don't have enough to eat' crazy messages to be giving children. The consequence of this kind of programming is adults who don't know when they're hungary or when in fact they're full because they 'need' to clean their plate rather than stop when they're satisfied. It's cool that your son is able to leave food on his plate when he's done and that his Mom has the freedom to throw it away. Great parenting! Way to go Angie and Scott. Have an outrageously healthy day! This is a fabulous moment to share, thank you so much.

My Fiance and I just began working out together as well and I hope to be the inspiration to her that Scott is to you. Training with her is really scaring me because I've always trained alone and I'm not sure my workouts will be the same. And yes, what an empowering decision. Love ur statement about "eating these fries does not help the starving people" A question though, what is ur son doing eating fries? Was alerted to this post because I subscribe to Scotts facebook status updates. He updated twitter, which updated facebook, which sent the msg to my phone and now I'm responding on my blackberry. Gotta love technology Fantastic to read this on many levels.
