About the pinto beas and red beans in Mexican food, it’s not the beans that
will
make you feel bad, it’s the corn tortillas or the flour tortillas.

Also the cheese! Darn it. But pinto beans are great plain or refried when
you are hungry for beans.

<< Wow, Pam, you are so encouraging! You weren’t writing to me specifically,
but I sure enjoyed reading your post to Terry. I am an O that is 59 years
old, have eaten badly most of my life (without knowing it), was always thin
because I didn’t eat properly, and am now suffering for it. I have
arthritic symptoms, am slightly overweight and soft, not much energy, etc.,
etc. I now know what I should do, and am trying to do it. Because I work in
an office (8 hours) and drive (2 hours) it is quite difficult for me to
shop for and keep in the house and prepare the foods I should be eating.
Exercise is hard to fit in my schedule, too. Of course, I need all the
encouragement I can get. Thanks for it! Carol
Glad I was able to help. You are a little older than I am, but I am fighting
terrible weight problems, arthritis, and fibromyalgia. At least you are
thin! LOL Those of you out there that are young and just want to feel

better, stick with it. I sure wish I had this information when I was in my
20’s. My life would be so much better today. But I am where I am and doing
my best to get where I want to be. If we stick together and encourage each
other we will all do well.

<< PS: What I do for salads is buy a couple of heads of lettuce - romaine
and a leaf lettuce for instance and slice a few cucumbers and a whole stalk
of celery and make it up to munch on for about 3-5 days. If its only for
one only use one head of lettuce and less other stuff. I hate making
salads, so this saves me some trouble. Just have to make sure you eat it
quick enough. You can add other stuff to it as desired. Jeanie
Thanks Jeanie,
Good idea about the salad. Dressing is the hard part.
Terry
I agree. I LOVE all kinds of vinegar. I miss that flavor terribly. But
lemon does help, and lime sometimes. I am going to try a little grapefruit
juice and also some pineapple juice with other spices. Garlic and ginger
should be good. A bit of tomato juice may be just the ticket occasionally.

I have taken some good olive oil and frozen it in ice cube trays. Then
popped them out and sealed in a zip lock bag and tossed it back in the
freezer. Just a cube in a small bowl and then whatever I am adding for
flavor, depending on the rest of the meal. It takes just a while to thaw and
if the taste is not wonderful, then it goes into the soup or if it is really
bad, then in the trash. But there is so little that I often use it as a base
for something else the next day. Try it.

Thankfully I do not have any dislikes. That should make it easier

Good girl. It is the good attitude that will keep you going. That and all
the great suggestions from this list. I sure do appreciate all of them.

Pam,
Thanks for the encouragement. My Doctor is a Gynecologist/surgeon. She
is
also a Clasical Homeopath. I see her as a Homeopathic Physician. She is
very much into health and nutrition. Guess I need to just figure out some
dishes that I can cook , and just do it.
Terry
Right, good for you! And the important thing is to find something that you
really like. And make that your treat. There are so many things that we CAN
have. I too, get stuck when I am starving for anything sweet and chocolate.
So maybe I will have some shrimp and rice instead. I find that I crave spicy
food. When I am feeling deprived I eat something legal, with tons of flavor.

That helps me a lot. But somedays the ever present salad just doesn’t make
it. Especially now that the cold weather is setting in. When the low
pressure hits I have lots of pain in my body. It is not the low temp, but
that also comes along with the pressure change. Then is when I pamper myself
with big bowls of legal soup, and beans and rice. Since I am very
carbohydrate sensitive I have to eat the latter sparingly. but I spice it up
with red peppers and enjoy it occasionally. The soup I can balance more
carefully. But it is hot, and since I make a ton and freeze it, it is also
quick. I can add crushed red peppers or other spices. It makes a nice
change from the beef and salad or green vegetable routine. Good luck and
keep in touch.
Pam

“Bangel, Right! You can’t get away from corn in a Mexican restaurant, can you?
That’s too bad. Of course I love those refried beans! Carol
