I recently received some very good advice from my friend, Nancy:
"Get the American Heart Association Cookbook which I bought when Lee had some health issues. We pretty religiously followed the fat content of foods. He was only allocated 44 grams of fat per day. Really interesting results (which we weren't even looking for). After 3 months he had lost 15 pounds and I had lost 6----and I wasn't even trying to lose weight. Salt is a major factor, but primarily it was the fat content. Seems the less fat content, the more salt is added to food. Bad deal in terms of taste, but we got used to it. Keep plugging away. "
Thanks, Nancy!
Aaron and I both lost weight this week. However, I am still losing the weight that I gained eating all the fast food and comfort food after Dolores died in December. So, I only have 2 more pounds to lose and I'm back down to wear I was when I started this endeavor. I can do it, I can do it.
Thank you to all of you who are encouraging me. It helps!
