very diligent, don't cheat but one time at a potluck, and didn't do that again. Going for A1C again soon and Lipid profile. Thing is, drink plenty of water, right percentages of Proteins, Fats and carb (vegies only) except a once-in-awhile loaf of Almond Flour bread, with cinnamon and stevia...

It wouldn't surprise me if it's a myth since it seems like anything good, and that folks can afford, or it doesn't come from big pharma is all bad!! Right, it's bad for big pharma ;) I can't imagine suffering with pain like that ;( I have so many doctors I listen to online, and this site has...

and ready to look at some options. I've read broccoli is low in oxalates, so I think that is good if it's true. I love my broccoli. I'd really like to hear from some of you on foods you are good with though, rather than the videos I was watching. Even if they are carnivore, ok with me. I am...

here's one of my alternative medicine sites I go to on occasion. I do NOT go along with some of their suggestions, but some that seem safe I will try: https://www.earthclinic.com/cures/kidney_stones.html Yes, I see now that the type my brother had were kidney stones ;( Also wanted to attach...

I thought I was all-or-nothing too, but there was more. I've found some other opinions to read about but then it's just a guessing game which article or video to believe, and studies too. Aren't kidney stones the ones that about kill you when they pass?? My brother had something and he said...

I don't know but it just seems like more and more foods cause this or that, and what happens when everything turns out to be bad for us. I'm depressed :( I eat spinach a lot in my omelettes, I love strawberries as they are so low in carbs, I love walnuts, macadamias and pistachios and I think...

I just read drinking enough liquids, mainly water, heads off kidney stones (calcium oxalate). Also eating probiotics (yogurt, saurkraut etc.) Anyone eat that way instead of giving up all plant foods? I would not like to give mine up but if that's the only way to avoid stones, then I would give...

I'm not sure if you mean burn-out as in tired, as in lethargic, no energy, or tired of the foods? I've had the "no energy" thing, off and on about 7 months now. It comes a goes with some "full of energy" days, and tired days. I eat the same every day, with variety of meats, fats and low-carb...

Taking on some new habits this a.m. No dairy, and starting to do a walk a day on my own so I can pick up the pace a bit. I walk my little dog and we are out about 5 times (not an actual walk usually) but we are stopping constantly for her to read her "p-mail". I've been lazy for months now...

Thank you Shelley! I will go and take a look at the link as well! I know I can figure this out with everyone's help you all have given me. I started the day out with changing out butter for Olive Oil, and I'll make a few more adjustments to lower the other 2 dairy products I use, I guess just...

I had heard Dave Feldman @Ryhia!! I recognized him from the time I listened to Dr. Berg interview him. He's the one that experimented on himself, some extreme stuff but wow, I was amazed about him and am going to listen to another vid this a.m. by him. Thanks so much for bringing him to mind...

Hi @Jo123, do you remember your numbers for LDL, and your total for cholesterol? I eat 2 eggs per day, 1 ounce of Mozarella cheese, Two Good Yogurt, 1/2 cup. The meats I do are chicken, salmon, pork tenderloin, sometimes chops, and ground beef on occasion. I eat 2 small avocados a day as well...

I can check into the CAC scan and see if I'm covered. I am thinking probably not, but I will check. Thanks much for the info, it would be good to know if there is a plaque building up now that I'm getting such a high number for cholesterol. I don't know how much that number actually tells me...

I wish her the best, I know a lady over here there that is in her 70s, and is a Type 1 and has a gadget on her hip that gives her insulin so she eats what she wants. She's doing it her way and seems fine and happy.

Thanks @Ryhia, it's to know for sure what to do these days, but you are trying your best and I also have been doing more chicken (I love baked thighs with skin and bone in) and I always have a bag of avocados. Sometimes I just cut a couple (they are small ones) and eat them with my chicken or...

Hi @Ryhia, thank you so much for sharing, first time someone came close to my numbers!! Did you take meds to bring it down, or just diet? Every time my cholesterol has been tested, in my whole life, I don't think it's ever been below like upper 200's. Maybe that is just "my" norm. I read...

and this was posted on Youtube in 2016. That screams of "cover-up" to me. Why on Earth would doctors not want us to get well, hmm, there lies the question hey. I believe this man, along with others that are finally being heard today! Thanks again @Fenn :)

Thanks @Fenn , I'll watch for sure, after I make a run for a few groceries ;)

thanks @HSSS I'll be busy reading this stuff today as I can't just give up after coming so far with my T2 numbers. The Diet Doc site/video I was watching said you can try dropping your saturated fats, and dairy but I don't do a lot of dairy and I don't think any saturated fats so I'll be...

I found another book that he co-authored and I could afford that one so I got it, digitally, Lipid Lunacy: Diet delusions and what really causes heart disease is the name and I will be reading it. Thanks so much, Denise
