Im wondering if whole wheat carbs are bad at night though, since I sometimes cook egg whites and slap a slice of cheese with two slices of whole grain wheat. Sometimes I just tell my poor husband to cook! I just can't stand to cook all the foods my kids and hubby wanna eat. Thank goodness he is supportive!lol as far as the rice goes, I can't eat brown rice, no matter wht I put on it. Its just so gross to me. Is there a brand or substitute for it that taste as good as regular rice and healthy for you?

I love cottage cheese, so I don't have any trouble eating it. I don't know; I sometimes just cook a regular meal for my family, that includes starches, and eat cottage cheese instead of the starch for me.

I don't know what the nutritionist would say about whole wheat products for dinner. She, personally, has cut out most gluten in her own diet. I don't think I could manage that. But, I'd have to think that whole wheat starches would be better for you than those with lots of white flour, no matter what time of day.

I also like brown rice. I prefer the texture to the softeness of white rice. But, my daughter doesn't care for it. I find that she doesn't complain (or, possibly even notice) if I mix 1/2 brown rice with 1/2 white rice. It actually tends to resemble white rice and the brown rice is barely detectable.
