this is my current go to cilantro 1 bunch, peppers 2, green onions 2,plum tomatoes 2, black olives handful, water pack tuna, cucumber 1.Dress with Fat Free dressing or yogurt mixed with seasonings.

blueberries frozen or semi frozen with Kefir poured over them. YUM! Kefir is a probiotic. Sorta like liquid yogurt.

my latest fav is English pot-roast. If u have a Fresh Thyme market they run this about every third week for $2.99. Use a crockpot liner for quick clean up. Put roast in crockpot. Cover with 1/2 jar any salsa.cut up onions and peppers and either sauté or lay on top of salsa. cook high 4 hrs or 8 hrs on low. Serve in taco or…

read a recipe recently haven't tried it yet but it makes sense. Flour and greek yogurt will look for it and be back

not funny. You may end up there. Older people deserve respect. Aunt May is probably a lovely lady who led a life that you evidently neither know,care about or respect. Save your rotten nuts,and shame on you!!!

try Kefir. It is like yogurt but it is fermented. High in protein, doesn't have lactose and very rich in probiotics,good for the gut. I make overnight oatmeal with it and add ground walnuts. Best flavor to me is blueberry. Alot of main stream grocery stores are starting to carry it.Yummm!!!

I try to avoid processed sugar.Good luck. Detox,clean eating whatever you call it is a worthy self challenge.

make vegatables your new besr friends...I have DM2 for ten years my A1c is currently 5.9.Also I suggest drinking a large glass of warm water with fresh squeezed lemon juice and grated ginger. I believe this helps me keep my numbers down

That is an awesome feeling! good for you...don't stop!!!

Kefir is a fermented yogurt that is chock full of probitics and OMG good.My fav is blueberry. Most large groceries carry it by…

dates( try them they are much better than they look) Starkist tuna pouches

what helped me past cravings was embracing vegetables. Cut out white flour and processed foods. Try to eat things with one ingredient. Ex, egg,potato,barley,etc.Try new things, dates are a sweet that stops my sweet tooth. I would find it near impossible to eat more than 6 at one sitting.look at your friends diary, mine is…

Thanksgiving is about food, Christmas is about presents! Thanksgiving turkey,ham,mashed potaoes,dressing,green beans,cranberry sauce and rolls. Pecan,pumpkin,cherry,aplle and chocolate pies. Mom made everyone's favorite and there were actual tears when I tried to down it to 3 kindas.LOL! Christmas is ham,meat balls and…

then hand held is hard if you have decreased wrist strength or carpal tunnel. I am 60 and I struggled with it. Got the Spiralizer and it is better but messy. I can do almost the same with my mandolin or a veg pealer.IMHO,not worth the money

my new favorite thing is Star kist tuna pouches (70-115cal) many flavors over 1cup cilantro,icup spinach, 3 radishes, 2green onion , 1 redpepper. Dress with taco sauce or salsa. Or mis low fat yougurt/sour creAm with salsa. Yum!!!

thanks to all. will definitely try the under water mojo.

try zucchini. It has almost no taste and the texture is crispih raw to mashed potato like when cooked. Use your favorite strong flavor profile. Mexican,Thai,itialian. Or you could try cooking it with lots of the veg you do like and increase the proportions of zuke to veg as you get used to it. Good luck.

Kefir.. it is a fermented yogurt.sounds gross huh? Blueberry in over night oatmeal with 1 tbs ground walnut. OMG!! and lots of probotics!!
