Guest guest Posted October 7, 1999 Report Share Posted October 7, 1999 Bill It is hard to watch someone do that to themselves but you can't change them unless they want to be changed, all you can do is try! Sounds like you did just that!

Guest guest Posted October 7, 1999 Report Share Posted October 7, 1999 Bill You're right--that is a yukky diet! Best of luck to you in getting him to see the light. Boy I sure think our food is tasty--you have to want to cook to get tasty foods sometime but it's worth it. Bev in Selah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 7, 1999 Report Share Posted October 7, 1999 Greetings everyone my step father has Diabetes and is having heart problems which means he has been in the Hospital this week and this is like the fourth time he has been in the hospital in less then 3 months.... His Diabetes requires insulin, and he is overweight and very very inactive...problem with poor blood flow in his feet and has heart disease in which his valves are not working and the elevated sugar has damaged his kidneys... Needless to say he is in bad shape... I have been after him to try the High protein or at least lower the carbs to help with the sugar... But he refused saying it was not tasty enough or did not offer enough seletion... So he is eating the High carb diet.... Note: I got my boss on Atkins diet she was also a insulin dependent..... But she followed the program GOT off alll insulin and lost a ton of weight and she looks good and alot of the problems like poor blod flow in her legs that had started have vanashed and got better to the point of never having any problems.... I even shared this story with my step father with no results. Anyway I just wanted to share this with you guys so you would gain strength from this about the High Carb Lies......Said simply High Carb Kills and is the root of most of the Medical Problems..... I was around during my Stepfathers meals and thought I would share with you the crap he is eating...... Breakfast Lunch Dinner 1 banana Meatloaf Barbecue Chicken ( sweet Sauce ) skim Milk Mash Potatoes Mash Potatoes Bowl of Cheeros Green Beans Blackeyed peas Apple Juice Angel Food Cake 2 slices Bread coffee Corn Bread Apple Sauce Toast/w Jelly Unsweeten Tea Unsweeten Tea Look at all the starches!!!!! No wonder he has to take Insulin!!!! I have a new saying Hopsital Food will Kill you ......Sorry for the rant.......Keep fighting the good fight.... Bill 274/249/200 ps Did I tell you he is taking 3 different Medcines for his high Cholesterol ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
