    Saverys_gal. Thanks as us udally you always have a kind word to say. I went to the Kidney foundation web site. and they recomend to called the doctor and get a ferral to a dietican trained in kidney problem. So that is what I will do tomorrow. Will keep you informed.

    Marie, that's a real bummer - the dietician should have great info for you - don't stop posting here just cuz you gotta eat a different way than we do! We would miss you terribly! Keep us posted how it goes.....

    I have one goal and one goal only - I may be going to a baby shower - and the food is going to be a pasta bar! So I'll definitely eat beforehand and stay away from the pasta.

    My goal:

    NO PASTA!

    Thanks Resalyn. You all are so upbeat. And I love all of your great friendship/ I talk to my doctor nurse and they told me to follow along on the Kidney foundations web site till I come in again in 2 months And see how things look then. But ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh does it has a lot of carbs. I know the bacon and cheese was way too much for me..Sodium wise. I really have to watch my sodium. intake.
    I am off for a short walk.

    Hi Marie!

    I just took a peek at the Kidney Foundation website and yes, it does appear you need more carbs!!! That's OK! I'll do some digging later but I didn't see anything telling you to eat WHITE carbs. So unless you are advised to do so or you find that you should be eating those white, starchy carbs...my advice would be to go ahead and start eating the carbs as recommended but instead chose whole wheats and grains as they are digested slower by the body. Just remember to always pick your good carbs and not say...ice cream and chips! :laugh: We are all here for you!!!!

    Saverys_Gal: Im giving up Crystal Light cause it has aspartame in it and im starting to have headaches all the time and i think if i stop using it i'll be able to reduce my headaches. Also Aspartame causes weight gain which is the last thing i want right now

    Nope...just a cheap department store kind in the toy section...lol It will have to do until I get the one by Marissa Torme. She has a nice weighted hoop along with a DVD. The cheap one I can practice with to get my groove on..lol Just keeping it to rotate for more than 2 seconds is going to be a trick...:laugh:

    Good morning challenger for me . A whole new ball game. for me. The reason I can't have whole wheat is the phosphorus, I have to watch that along with a couple of other things. Thanks for letting me post here with you girls. It help to have someone to take to. But I do not want to confused anyone with my diet. I am doing fine. My energy levels seems to be up some, Phosphoris Is what I need to watch


    My challenge today is to exercise more
    Stick to my plan as I understand it
    No diet colas
    No dairy products no milk or yogurt
    No wheat products
    Used white bread
    and the list goes on.

    What kind od teas do you drink Saverys_gal?

    There is a lot wrong with aspartame. Headaches are one of the symptoms of using it. I gave up drinking crystal light type drinks a few weeks ago. It can stall your loss. I am staying away from chemical type sweeteners and using the natural ones. Splenda is not a natural sweetener. I have stopped using that, because when its made, they use chlorine I think, besides it was not helping me in the weight loss area. I don't want anymore chemicals in my body that don't need to be there. For me, eating LC is a gift of health I am giving myself, and if I can make it as chemically (meaning additive) free as possible then that is what I am going to do. I have been reading lots on proper nutrition and the way the FDA has it is bullocks!! The FDA just wants us to get fatter so we get sick and big pharma can push its addictive drugs on us that don't heal, but instead hurt or kill. Proper holistic nutrition is the best!!!
