Kendra-
Can you print off a couple of
Angle Soft TP coupons for me?
I'm down to 1.5 rolls left
and need to get some this week
and I can't get this site to print coupons for me.
Not even sure how much the coupon is for
but any money off is good money!
THANKS!!

8:00pm
I got three boys hair cut today.
Still have Tony's to do in the near future.
Finally chilling for the evening watching Waterboy.
And also doing some research for some
recipes, like ones for diabetics.
Need to figure out how to change our diet
and a way to do it that we can afford.
I don't know if you have noticed but most
things with coupons are for things that are not healthy
for you.
I say most, because there are a couple that are good for you.
I feel most Americans are overweight because
the unhealthy foods are cheaper and lower income
families can only afford to eat just that.
Fresh produce is more expensive because
it has a limited shelf life unlike things on shelves
which are packed full of preservatives, salts, fats, carbs & sugar.
This will be sooo hard considering we've been
eating like we have for most of our lives.
So you will see me starting to take notes
about what to eat.
----------------------
What are healthy ways to eat starches?
Buy whole grain breads and cereals.
Eat fewer fried and high-fat starches such as regular tortilla chips and potato chips, french fries, pastries, or biscuits. Try pretzels, fat-free popcorn, baked tortilla chips or potato chips, baked potatoes, or low-fat muffins.
Use low-fat or fat-free plain yogurt or fat-free sour cream instead of regular sour cream on a baked potato.
Use mustard instead of mayonnaise on a sandwich.
Use low-fat or fat-free substitutes such as low-fat mayonnaise or light margarine on bread, rolls, or toast.
Eat cereal with fat-free (skim) or low-fat (1%) milk.
.Following is a sample diabetic diet meal :
One serving of protein (3 oz of chicken, lean beef or fish)
One serving of bread (whole grain roll, tortilla or ½ cup pasta)
One serving of dairy (cheese, milk or low-fat sour cream)
One serving vegetables (fist sized portion or a small bowl of salad)
One serving fruit (tennis ball sized or ½ cup sliced)
Small amounts of unsaturated fats are needed, so add a little dressing or a pat of soft margarine. Avoid sweets; consider the fruit your dessert!
Foods that should be avoided include; fatty red meat, organ meat, highly processed food, fried food, fast food, high cholesterol food and foods rich in saturated fat.
-----------------
Try these six simple steps to get started:
Using your dinner plate, put a line down the middle of the plate.
- Then on one side, cut it again so you will have 3 sections on your plate.
- Fill the largest section with non-starchy vegetables such as:
- spinach, carrots, lettuce, greens, cabbage, bok choy
- green beans, broccoli, cauliflower, tomatoes,
- vegetable juice, salsa, onion, cucumber, beets, okra,
- mushrooms, peppers, turnip
- Now in one of the small sections, put starchy foods such as:
- whole grain breads, such as whole wheat or rye
- whole grain, high-fiber cereal
- cooked cereal such as oatmeal, grits, hominy, or cream of wheat
- rice, pasta, dal, tortillas
- cooked beans and peas, such as pinto beans or black-eyed peas
- potatoes, green peas, corn, lima beans, sweet potatoes, winter squash
- low-fat crackers and snack chips, pretzels, and fat-free popcorn
- And then on the other small section, put your meat or meat substitutes such as:
- chicken or turkey without the skin
- fish such as tuna, salmon, cod, or catfish
- other seafood such as shrimp, clams, oysters, crab, or mussels
- lean cuts of beef and pork such as sirloin or pork loin
- tofu, eggs, low-fat cheese
- Add an 8 oz glass of non-fat or low-fat milk. If you don’t drink milk, you can add another small serving of carb such as a 6 oz. container of light yogurt or a small roll.
- And a piece of fruit or a 1/2 cup fruit salad and you have your meal planned. Examples are fresh, frozen, or canned in juice or frozen in light syrup or fresh fruit.
Breakfast
Your plate will look different at breakfast but the idea is the same. If you use a plate or bowl for breakfast, keep your portions small. Use half your plate for starchy foods. You can ad fruit in the small part and a meat or meat substitute in the other..Reserved this book from the library:
