With the meat I just try to stay away from alot of it because of the fat. I am going to start eating more chicken at least to start with. I am tired 90% of the time. The only things that I know I can not have for sure is spicy foods, beans, and applesauce. Other than that I am not sure of what will work and won't until I try. So any suggestions would be great and I can go from there. I do not take any vitamins. The only things I am taking is Calcium with vitamin D, Align and Colestipol.
