I had some off days during the past week - back on track now. External events made this a particularly difficult week. In addition to that I got blood test results back and doctor's note that I'm prediabetic and cholesterol is too high (just the bad one) but happily enough she suggested following a low carbohydrate diet and said nothing about dietary fats. Time to get really serious about weight loss and keto with IF is the best way to improve my "numbers" so I'm on it.
I was in the hospital overnight with chest pains (heart checks out OK, though) and they gave me a presumably cardiac health friendly meal of chicken soup (1/2 of a curly noodle in it), turkey breast slices over white bread with gravy and mashed potatoes and diced cooked carrots, saltless saltine crackers and margarine. All was low sodium and certainly low fat. I feel sorry for folks who get convinced that kind of meal is good for them.

Yikes.. what a wonderful meal to give someone doing low carb. They served my sister the same type.. cereal in the morning and mashed potatoes and all the trimmings for dinner. I think she came out sicker than when she went in..

Yuck! I got the same meal onna heart scare and bitched big time because I’m a diet controlled diabetic! 🤦🏻♀️Then after stomach surgery they tried to do the same thing telling me they could give me insulin to get my sugars down. 🙇🏻♀️I TOLD them they would NOT! And ordered food that wouldcontrol my sugars and only ate that! Pretty bland and gross, but it worked. 🙋🏻♀️I wish all hospitals would get with the program but they have to satisfy everyone.
