Active time: 20 min Start to finish: 30 min Servings: Makes 2 servings
Ingredients5 large egg whites and 2 yolks (or
use an egg substitute) PreparationBeat eggs with 1/4 teaspoon salt. Heat oil in a 10-inch heavy nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until it shimmers, then sauté cauliflower until browned and tender, 5 to 9 minutes. Reduce heat to medium, then add garlic, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper and sauté 1 minute. Pour eggs over cauliflower. Cook, lifting edges to let uncooked egg run underneath and shaking skillet occasionally to loosen omelet, until almost set, 4 to 5 minutes. Slide out onto a large plate. Put skillet over omelet and, using pot holders, firmly hold plate and skillet together, then invert omelet back into skillet and cook 1 to 2 minutes. Slide out onto plate and sprinkle with feta and parsley.

This is an outline of a successful plan for nutrition. You will feel satisfied. Get the proper balance of carbs, protein and vegetables, and fuel your body for weight loss! This type of plan, combined with the correct type and amount of exercise will lead to success. Just remember that "Rome wasn't built in a day", and that it didn't take 4 weeks to gain the weight, so don't expect it to come off in a week. It's about consistency and persistency.
