I'm back on my proper diet and what's even better is that Lisa is right on board with me. She doesn't need to lose weight at all, but wants to eat healthier.
My "eat healthy" plan has more or less been an avoidance thing. I stay away from meat as much as possible and watch potassium like a hawk because of my condition. That doesn't leave much I can eat except grains and whole food, plant based stuff.
Fortunately I can tolerate a little of anything, I just can't eat steak 3 times a day and I can't eat chicken at all, it totally screws me up. The potassium in meat breaks down slower and keeps me screwed up longer than the potassium in fruit and vegiees and seafood. Except shrimp. Shrimp is like the chicken of the sea to me.
I haven't been on the scale, but I'm still hanging around 200. That should be dropping quickly as I'm feeling a lot better since I had my meds adjusted, and I'm putting in a good 12 hours a day on my feet now. That's freakin awesome. Thank You, Jesus.
I've also resumed drinking tons of water. Since midnight last night I've put down half a gallon. I'm going for a refill right now.
