I don’t remember exactly what meals I had but I stopped all soft drinks ice cream. Haven't had donuts in 3 years. No frozen meals or any packaged foods & no fast foods and only went to restaurant on my birthday except when my friend brought me something which wasn't often. Very few canned foods, beans for salad, tomato sauce (when the girl cooks for me she uses fresh tomatoes) garbanzo's can't think of what else. Had fresh whole foods that had to be cooked. Had beans & lentils (because of iron content) & salads. Lots of veggies. Of course I didn't give up any of the 5 most important food groups, Candies cookies cakes pies and pastry but did cut back on sweets, that was the hardest part. I try to get plenty of iron since I donate blood products 2 and sometimes 3 times a month. But I decided to eat right except for candy and not to gain weight again. My doctor said I had to go to the gym and her office called every week To make sure I had been there every day. I was also ordered to see a nutritionist. She wanted me to have 1 strand of spaghetti and call it a meal. Looks like I'm getting a roommate, a guy who loves to cook. He must be as crazy as Florida Mary's (@imallears) son.
congratulations on your weight loss that’s quite an accomplishment. 90 pounds is the most I’ve ever lost at one time, one long drawn out time that is. 2 years I think it took.
Take care,
Jake
