Nothing that deserves special attention. But I will not hide myself the question:
a) basic: sugar hunting; there, for someone like me who was a sweet Stress is hard enough; So strictly voluntary control to a (small) dessert after dinner near
b) the hunt for hidden fats (of poor quality): exit from industrial pastries, "cakes"; of course, no industrial prepared meals; remains a reasonable share (1 / 8th) of pie made by my wife with oil with our fruits, eg
c) nothing between meals; strictly
d) not (or rarely) refills
e) vegetables; often in the evening, a large salad plate (I eat a salad made sladier), some fish, yeast, lots of onions / shallots for varied tastes; and a slice of bread, it
f) of pulses (lentils, chick peas ...)
g) homemade sourdough bread (I eat a lot of bread!); more generally, complete starchy foods (and organic)
h) more rarely white meat (chicken or duck), but I haven't completely "redone" myself on this subject; often, fish (including fatty fish: mackerel, sardines - in grilled fillets on a plancha; a delight)
i) oddly, I "reasonably" consume fat (oils - rapeseed or olive), duck fat, quite often half a small plate (collective restaurant type) of butter in the morning ... I think it is a a mistake in depriving yourself of too much fat; and our griasse (the one that accumulates) comes from sugar, not from the fat we eat; of course, no cream, no bacon ... etc ... Everything is therefore relative!
Typical winter dishes: wholemeal pasta + + pesto salmon pieces; grattin apple-to-earth with duck leg confit in small pieces; lenses; chickpeas + moceaux grilled chicken to the pan ...
And a find from my wife: "raw hot soups"! Boil water, put in the blender, throw in small cubes of vegetables (what is on hand or in the garden; recently nettles, the famous turnips, pieces of celery stalk that have passed winter ...) and let it run until smooth! It's hot and creamy like soup. And the vegetables are always "almost raw". If it's the only dish, we can load a little starch (leftover pot or rice or pasta - cooked then!) ...
