This sounds great, but I have all together 3 health problems problems that keep me from eating a lot of the foods on here. I will definitely check out some of the others that I might can eat. Thank you for sharing this and happy you’re doing good.

Diet can be a moving target. What is good one day may need adjustment the next, especially when you are managing more than one medical condition. The more natural, plant based, and unprocessed food the better. Sometimes you just have to eat a completely bland diet for a time. I call it a diet of twigs and sticks. I prefer overnight refrigerated oatmeal for breakfast, because the apple taste comes through. It's okay to have that occasional steak, lean of course. The Mediterranean diet is highly recommended right now. It's good to come up with a daily meal plan. It doesn't have to be written or recorded, just think about what you are having for all three meals in terms of what your daily requirements are. Usually, you can have just about anything, in moderation. Let your body talk to you, and talk to your body.

@littlebit71, same here. I have type 2 diabetes as well as CKD and gastroparesis and the diets for each conflict with each other! I had to compromise and what I'm eating isn't quite enough but I do the best I can and although I'm anemic and tired I'm still here and manage to get through each day fairly well. It's a seesaw, for sure.
