Let me clarify....Mr. doesn't commute every day. We have a condo there. He stay there during the week. And comes home on the weekends. This week he has been working from here mostly. He does that occasionally.

And now to you, Hubby! I don't agree with carbs are bad calories. You need carbs to exercise! The key is that you need balance. Always balance carbs with protein. And choose your carb calories well. Meaning, choose carbs that have some benefit (vitamins and nutrients) and a lower glycemic index

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glycemic_index

For instance, I often snack on frozen blueberries and strawberries for their high antioxident value. Both blueberries and rice have carbs but the blueberries have more nutrient value.

Another thing is that, you know that I study the nutrient and calorie content of all the fast food p0laces that we go to to find out what's best. It would be good for you to do that too.

Mr, I think that you might really benefit from learning more about vegetarianism (did I spell that right).
