Thanks LT! Yes, I think the AP has been bad for my physical health overall, not just the weight gain but with some of these other things. My Mom cooks pretty healthy but I'm going to ask her to add another vegetable to dinner every night because usually only a third of the plate is vegetables and it's supposed to be half. So I'll ask her to do that and see what other things my doctor suggests. Diabetes runs in my family so I need to be careful. I know I need to lose weight and I've been trying but the AP makes me so hungry all the time. But the AP has been really good for my mental health so it's like, ack, whatcha gonna do?!!
