everyone, appreciate suggestions - mrs d. - i was going to ask my gi doc for referral to nutrionalist - think i'll call him this week and see if i can get - cause i know i cant have acid according to the gastroparesis diets i see on line (and experience - even citrus because of the acid too)....

if a juicer will let me have some healthier and different tastes and seems to be ok to the dietician - i'll give it a shot (have a family member who has some mega juicer that leaves no pulp at all - so maybe that is an option!)

we'll see

There are juicers on Ebay...some really a steal.
I was thinking you'd use them for vegetables mostly. Citrus is hard to handle, but you might get a little in there, diluted and try it eventually.

Blueberries,stawberries are really high in antioxidants, however.
Using the veggies, you'd get some potassium too.

My Dr. Amy and son got me a Jack Lalane Jucier and Veggie used for both,
They got me a big one because of Bob's girls and when all the kids are
together. There's a small one as well,but a bit pricey. I remember doing
with that man and his wife when in the 70's all you needed in equitment
was a dining room chair or sturfy flolding chair,the floor and I used my
babies for weights..The baby would be up and hollowing at 6 in the morning.
They all found that show fun,didn't know they were getting there
Mom in shape. Anyway he's in his 9o's or 104 something like that,if you
have a hard time with your hand's and wrist's it great..

Mrsd. my daughter makes my Grandson Butter squach,or butter nut soup.
He's 9 months old today..Now this is mean,my Mom use to fixed my son when
he was 9 months old mashed potatoes he would clap his hands and
dive in,well 1 day with out saying anything she mashed up her favorite
Turnips,well he got a mouth ful and you know how babies look when
there trying to get something out of there mouths fast..This kid was
gagging ,look like his face was turning blue..Then I look ed at Mom and she
started laughing,my Dad said Jonnie Joe that was mean. Boy before
he had mash potatoes anywhere he would smell them.

My husband a nice Jewish man did not care for grits,collar greens ect.
Well we were on vaction once were eating breakfast,he was looking
at me like are you nuts,but said in a loud voice SUE put those down
there GRITS,well you don't say that in Mississippi..They just put them
on the plate in the south..Those people looked until I ate every bit,then
reached over and ate his..Yet it took me forever to make Borsh (beet soup}
well sour cream,well the trouble was back then everyone never wrote
it down,so nothing tastes like Mothers..

I'm become a e-bay nut now as well,so far never had any trouble,has
anyone else???Boy my wrists and hands hurt today,it's so cold again.
