I am so glad your situation has improved and your “ program” is working for you. I am a month or so out from next blood work so don’t know if I’m still on right track or not but the challenge for me is to get enough protein in smaller “ hits” throughout the day. I’m eating mostly veggies/grains as protein as I read it’s easier on kidneys. . It takes a lot more of it though to get enough. Feel like all I do is think about food. Phooey on that. And my waistline isn’t shrinking either. Any suggestions?
