If you google "vegan for t2d" you'll get lots of info & research for vegetarian & vegan diets. :) Good Luck!

There's a socioeconomic class for food choices?

I'm in NY & my system is 6yrs old so remember things have changed. It's one of the best financial decisions I've ever made. Shop around before making a decision. The company should tell you if trees are going to be a problem. They should tell you your break even point & rate of return. In my case it's paid most of my…

Wow! Great achievement

I only buy fruit & veggies. They sell organic & for organic the prices are good. $30 minimum +$5 shipping. I get it every 2 weeks since there are only 2 of us. You have to be flexible - ex. the romaine was small so next order I got 2 & they were huge. There are facebook groups & some people complain about delivery but I…

For the last 2 months I've been using Misfits Market. If they deliver in your area, it might be worth a look. They have a $30 minimum + $5 shipping. I've been getting deliveries twice a month (It's just 2 of us) & I only get fresh fruit & veggies. They sell organic. Examples from this week: Romaine $1.49, 12 oz green beans…

How about apples or peanut butter

Thanks! I'm considering Garmin!

This has red flags all over it. First of all shortness of breath is not something to ignore. As far as the diet, 1/2 cup of beans will get you 5 g of protein - what's the point of the protein powder? except to enrich the seller? I'm with Malted Tea - get a second opinion from someone with the initials MD after their name

I am cat 3 sometimes 4 CKD caused by an autoimmune disease. I try to follow a vegan diet, depending on how lazy I am about cooking. Breakfast is oatmeal, shredded wheat or Dr Sams cereal with almond milk, banana & sometimes blueberries. Lunch is a homemade lentil patty on a wrap or salad or homemade veggie/bean soup.…

BTW, I really like the idea of giving yourself little rewards along the way!

Show me the studies, please!

You look great! Thanks for sharing

I've gained weight while on pred(also for an auto immune disease) & find it difficult to lose. I'm down to 5mg a day but it will be several months before I'm off it, if all goes well. I find I'm better off on a vegan, whole food diet, but that's personal preference. Pred makes me very hungry & I could stuff a 3 course meal…

Take a deep breath & stay calm. Could be anything from water weight to a messed up scale. Keep to your plan & you will continue to make progress!

Anything chocolate!

I am transitioning back to a vegan diet after a lapse caused by laziness. Got sick of cooking. Also gained weight caused by prednisone. Friends appreciated!

Best wishes! and don't worry if you gain a few - anesthesia may cause that.

Hives are not mild - been there done that!

as per Harper 16 - I eat back some of the fitbit calories - I think it over estimates

Google Hashimoto's diet studies. NIH has a few small studies

I'm reading "The Great Influenza" by John Barry now. I recommend it. Regardless of the book, I wear a mask. Where I live,NYC suburb, people wear them. There was a lot of hostility in the beginning - but that seems to have stopped. NY was hit really hard & I think people realized it was necessary & a small thing to do. My…

Daily for me - I can do a lot of damage in a week. But it's really just personal preference.

Starting (5/1) 182 Challenge Level 3 Goal: 167 Today 5/13: 176.5 End of May: 177 End of June: End of July: May was up & down due to high doses of prednisone & medical stuff, but OK I lost 5 & didn't gain!

Agree with the others - sometimes you really have to be aggressive to get more rehab - insurance only pays for a specific number of treatments. You may have to wait for the gyms to reopen - I've seen the trainers at my local y do amazing things for their clients (ex. a young woman with brain damage graduate from a walker…

Good for you!!!!!!!!

Parchment for me. I gave my silpats away to someone who uses them.
