Day four. I made the salmon patties/burgers that I posted the other day and

they were very good! I made the following changes this time though - added lemon zest and chopped celery leaves to the patty mix, and it really brightened it up.

We had them on top of whole wheat-high fiber Thomas's English muffins (8g per serving!) instead of the rice suggested, and topped them with chili peppers added to full-fat sour cream (fat isn't my problem) instead of using the sweetened fat-free yogurt as they suggested - ugh, that doesn't even sound good to me.

I'm making hummus, but I'm out of tahini and so will finish that tomorrow. I had no idea that eating anti-inflammatory foods made such a difference in your joints so quickly. Maybe it's just a coincidence, but my knee is so much better and hopefully the rest of my body wiill follow along. It's been a rough spring.

Just giving up desserts and adding more fish and spices (I always was big on the vegetables). Tonight I also passed up the half of a small whoopie pie leftover from last week, in favor of 4 homegrown strawberries :eek:)

 
Basically the anti-inflammatory, where you omit as many refined sugars as

you can (sugar, refined grains - white rice, white bread, white pasta) and include lots of fish (which I always did, anyway). Mainily because I have type-2 diabetes and it is basically what I have been doing for the past couple of years, just adding more of the above.

It was Marsha's reply to my poll post at 15059.

"Day 1" was the worst! Not a structured "diet" but the first day of my giving up the refined carbs and goodies because I've been feeling crappy since for about a month or 2.
