[QUOTE="HisGraceAbounds, post: 74195416, member: 421186"] Thanks for the replies! What are some of the most drastic changes you all made to your diets? For me, I discovered that a LOT of my gastrointestinal upset was caused by certain meats. Now I avoid pork altogether and rarely eat beef. I'm all over fish and chicken though...if I have some sort of animal protein, it's from either of these two sources. I also became very aware of my sodium intake (because of the bloating and water retention), and I have to keep a close eye on my calcium and potassium intake because of the HBP med I am on (if my levels of Ca or K get too high, I can start having arrhythmia because the electrical signals to my hear get wonky). I'm also eating a LOT of fresh, steamed, or baked veggies and they take up the most room on my plate. Finally, I try to restrict my carbohydrate intake for my evening meal so they don't just sit in my system and get turned into fat while I sleep. I have no issue eating carbs for lunch because I'm active enough to burn them during the day. [/QUOTE]
