@lb0530 if your kidney #s are not too bad, maybe some protein …very small portions of salmon or turkey are good choices….i even came to like tofu with rice/noodles and variety of veggies. Plant protein can help the diet—check out that food category…i try to limit dairy, except for small amounts of good 2% plain yogurt, which is important for the micro biome…always a salad eater, but now careful as some lettuces carry parasites, so i get farmer’s produce and wash very well…for now, frozen berries and some frozen veggies…always have some small amount of carbs with these veggie things as it helps balance as well as satisfy… I am a believer in TINY treats which help me enjoy a few faves….i really don’t really go for feeling ‘’full’’, as intestinal surgery (18 inches less gut) has indicated eating smaller amounts of foods altogether….sure, it takes effort to get a balanced diet and take stress off of kidneys—-but it is a good tool WE have for our own health. (PS-Daily apples really do support health !)
