Sesame Tofu Stir-Fry Over Rice

I've been cooking light as of late for my girlfriend because she's on a diet while i just eat whatever i like and don't gain a pound. it's very hard for her to be around someone like me, where there's nothing but good food around all the time. what i can do? should i not eat all these fatty food around her, hide all the sweets? eat healthy food too and make it easier on her diet? i'm already starting to cook meals from cooking light magazine like this one for her.
1 tablespoon sesame seeds
1 tablespoon black sesame seeds
1/2 teaspoon salt, divided
1 (1-pound) package firm or extrafirm tofu, drained and cut into 1-inch cubes
2 teaspoons peanut oil
2 teaspoons dark sesame oil
cooking spray
4 cups thinly sliced shiitake mushroom caps (about 3/4 pound)
3 cups (2-inch) slices asparagus (about 1 pound)
1/4 cup thinly sliced green onions
1/2 cup fat-free, less-sodium chicken broth
2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
1 1/2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
1 teaspoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon chili garlic sauce (such as lee kum kee)
2 cups cooked long-grain brown rice

preparation

combine sesame seeds and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a large bowl. add the tofu cubes; toss gently to coat. combine oils in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. add tofu; stir-fry 5 minutes or until tofu is golden. remove tofu from pan; keep warm.

return pan to heat; coat with cooking spray. add mushrooms; stir-fry 3 minutes or until mushrooms begin to brown. add asparagus; stir-fry 4 minutes or until asparagus is crisp-tender. reduce heat to medium; stir in green onions.

combine broth and next 4 ingredients (broth through garlic sauce). add broth mixture to pan; remove from heat (sauce will thicken). add tofu and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt; toss gently to combine. serve over rice.
