Cohen Diet Weekly Menu

I admit it: I'm a weak-willed person with no self control and a rubber arm that can detect a dessert 10 paces away while still in the fridge! I tend to eat to celebrate, to overcome frustration, anger or boredom or sometime only because it is there. And I've come to realise that as my weight increase my enjoyment of food decreases. So this time I attack the situation head on with a Cohen Diet weekly meal plan. It incorporates Saturday family gatherings around the braai and rugby and Sunday roasts.  So what does this plan look like I hear you ask...
