Change Our Diet

Getting older is not an easy thing to do

we find out. Actually being old is the
problem which I don't have to worry
about for several more years. At least
I hope so anyway.

My mom worked into being old very

gracefully. She died in March in a good

way to falling asleep for the last few

days.  She was 99 and a half so almost

made it to that special number of one

hundred. 

Mom did well until about 96 when 

several falls were probably her undoing.

The thing though she kept on going. 

Often those in her age bracket one fall

is what ends it all. 

Her memory the last couple years or 

so was not like mom at all. She remembered

some things but had trouble with others.

She could still live a pretty good life though.

So continue on the story while getting older

we have to start changing our diet. Some

refuse which is everyone's right to do so 

though not easy.

I know I have to change my diet to a degree.

Cut out the meat for the most part. I plan to

go on a vegetable diet. 

Thing is some vegetables I can't have and

they happen to be my favorites. Other ones

I can have I don't really like. Right now I 

have cereal or eggs for breakfast while having

a salad for lunch. 

I like tomatoes so I can throw them in with the

salad or eat a few for dinner. I figure dinner 

will be my light meal.  

I am not sure exactly what I will have for dinner

though I may have soup on occasion. The problem

with many soups they have too much salt which

I have to watch as well. So I look for soup with

low sodium. Not something I will have regularly

but on occasion as I said.

It will be interesting to see how this works out.

There are a few vegetables I like where I can

chop them up. So let's see how this diet works 

out. Amen!
