Low-Iodine Diet (LID) recipe/menu ideas?

If you get a hankering for something specific, I'm pretty good at adapting recipes for special needs. Best advice I can give is vicarious from others and things you already mentioned. You wont feel much like cooking for them 2 weeks so may want to advance make a few meals. Just simple things but you won't be able to trust even a store bought broth. I'm afraid the mass majority of my 'fast and easy' cookery uses things off limits to you just now but I have a few that are tastey and cook quick which would work. I do so love my spinach! I am pretty sure that was an 'ok' item but butter was out, so sesame oil (if ok, didnt notice it one way or the other) can give it a little kick with non-iodized salt. |

How do you know they had never tried to do anything about their weight? Many people try once, or twice, with a well-thought-out approach to losing weight, but it fails to achieve sustained results. They then, apprising themselves of what is known about weight loss, conclude they are among the group that shouldn't keep trying, because the result will be yoyo dieting and probable weight gain. So if you know a person who isn't doing anything about it, you might want to consider if this is because they have come to a reasonable position on the subject, based on past weight loss attempts that may be decades in the past even but which established it wasn't going to work for them. Just something to think about. Steve |

Where do you get these grabber thingies? I'd like to get one for my mom...and I could even see using one myself to get junk off of the top shelves. -- Best Greg |

Tonight, I'm making chicken stock, schmaltz, barley soup with homemade beef stock, tomato sauce, and cashew "milk", all to put into the freezer. Tomorrow, we're going to buy 10 pounds of potatoes for me to mash and freeze in one-serving quantities. > I do so love my spinach!

Don't need to. Of the number of years I've lived, and the number of people I've know who have either battled weight or are battling weight, or have simply chosen not to do so, I've heard just about every type of situation and accept them all. Whatever they do or not do is a personal issue and choice to them, just as mine is to me. -- Wayne Boatwright e-mail to wayneboatwright at gmail dot com ************************************************** ********************** Date: Wednesday, 02(II)/18(XVIII)/09(MMIX) ************************************************** ********************** ************************************************** ********************** He's dim, Jed ************************************************** ********************** |
