First I got rid of anything easy to make. All those boxed meals like tuna helper and so forth. They are very high in salt. Think about it. The companies need to preserve them somehow and I believe the way they accomplish this is by added a ton of salt. Not only was the salt contributing to my high blood pressure but it was also keeping me from losing weight. Cut out the canned soup as well. After eating canned soup people would ask me if I was feeling alright but I never understand why. I do now. They said I looked flush; that my cheeks were red and my nose was too. I believe to this day it was all the salt in the soup.

I started shopping fresh fruit and vegetable stand before shopping at the grocery store. I bought fresh fruit and vegetables. The stand is much cheaper than the grocery store and the produce taste better. The stand I shop at packages small plant pots filled with plums or tomatoes for one low price. Each week the items change in the planters which helps me to switch the produce I purchase. I spend an average of $15 for a week or more. I can tell you for a fact, that the same items I purchase at the stand cost double at the grocery store and are flavorless.I cut out white items to include bread and sugar. I buy brown rice pasta and spinach pasta now. If I eat bread I try to have just one piece of bread and make my sandwich thicker in the middle. I buy multigrain breads. I gave up sugar and instead use honey. I even cook with honey.
