Its good to hear that Randall is doing better. I'll be keeping him in my prayers. I'll be also praying for you two in your quest to quit smoking.
That's exactly what I intend on doing from now on - not buy the stuff. I sure can't stop him from eating the junk while he's at work, but I can prevent some of it if it isn't in the house. I'm gonna also contact my "coherts" at his workplace, and have them keep an eye on him, too.Originally Posted by strange_wings
Simply don't buy those foods. If he's anything my DH he's not going to make the effort to go get it himself, so keeping it out of the house will help. Start reading labels on everything. And I know I've mentioned the DASH diet before, see if your library has a book for this - it focuses on a low sodium diet and eating more natural foods.
I'm not so sure that neither one of us will ever quit craving some of that "junk" food (especially chocolate!Once you get out of the habit of eating really salty and really sweet foods you won't crave or even like them very much.
Heck, I could eat a pear or any other fruit for that matter, ANYTIME!Originally Posted by LDG
You know you've made the change when you want something sweet and a pear sounds GREAT.

I am sooooo sorry that I haven't posted an update!Originally Posted by WellingtonCats
I just noticed KK hasn't posted since the 5th - how are you and Randall doing?
My sister lives in the Woodlands, if you need anything let me know and I will see if she can get it for you.Originally Posted by KittKatt
I really appreciate the offer & your concern, Mike, but we're quite a ways from Dallas - closer to Houston. Randall's in one of the hospitals in the Woodlands.
Thanks so much for offering, though.
