Showing Original Post only (View all)High BP, Pre-diabetic. WHAT THE F*CK AM I SUPPOSED TO EAT???????????? [View all]
At my last check-up (I put it off for four years. A lot can happen in four years, right!) I found out that I had high blood pressure, and was pre-diabetic. Out of his great love for me, my dearest husband went through our house and threw out every box of cookies, crackers, every high sodium soup, TV dinner, all sweetened yogurt, my Capn Crunch cereal, my Jello. Gone. All gone.
WHAT THE F*CK AM I SUPPOSED TO EAT????
I hate cooking. I have discovered, after buying 15 of them, that I hate the taste of Greek Yogurt. I have some carrots and some corn. If somebody tells me that they have too much sugar, I will cry.
What can I snack on? Help!

I feel for you. It's tough because so much prepared food is full of fat and sodium.

Get Redmond salt (good price at Costco.) You need the minerals that good salt has.
