I was impressed with my first Butcher Box. Having that list of main ingredients made the menu planning easier. I added a fish day and an eating out day each week and the box took care of the rest. Have you been happy with the variety, sj? I see they have custom boxes too, but since I hardly have favorites after several decades of not eating the stuff it was easier to just go with whatever they sent.
That's encouraging, Steph. My doctors have said all along that if I lost weight my cholesterol would be normal, and of course the diabetes is aggravated by weight too. I just have to say it is a whole lot easier to eat healthy choices when you aren't starving! When I have tried vegan in the past I gained weight because I was flat out starving all the time. Have to listen to my body.
Laura, yes and I'm enjoying trying and learning how to cook cuts I would never have tried otherwise. Although I'm not doing keto, just trying to balance out carbs with proteins.
I'm a dedicated carnivore. Doc and I were going over my numbers recently and I asked about my cholesterol. He blinked a little in surprise: "Normal." Heh. (I eat lots of chicken and fish.)
I went to look at an apartment today. I liked it a lot, and I told the realtor that I liked it, but that I'd just started looking and wasn't ready to commit to anything, and that I'd like to look at some others. She said that was fine -- she thinks that someone else is about to make an offer on this one, but that some others in this building might come available soon -- and she talked with me a bit about what I'm looking for, and said she'd email me tomorrow with some suggestions. She mentioned a couple buildings that she thought I might like, and I just looked them up, and they do look nice.
The one I looked at today was in the old Walnut Hills High School building.
Oh, that's cool. I didn't realize that was turned into apartments.
Yeah -- the one I saw was pretty nice. And they've got stuff like school memorabilia and pictures of famous alumni decorating the lobby.
And it's got better accessibility than plenty of buildings that were built as apartments -- I would have no problem at all getting from the parking lot to the apartment in my wheelchair.
