I made a grocery list earlier. I used my diet that I got from the dietitian as a guide. My plan is to get the food on the list and try to stay on the diet, for at least a week or two and hopefully indefinitely. I will post at least a condensed version of it today and maybe that will help in grocery shopping later.
