I hit up the grocery store after work today as we were getting pitifully low on fruits and veggies. Here's what I got:

6 bananas $2.06
Can of honey roasted peanuts $2.50

2 lbs cherries $7.80
2 nectarines $2.07
4 lemons (reduced for quick sale) $.99
3 pears (reduced for quick sale) $.99
3 strawberry Greek yogurts (reduced for quick sale) $.49 each ($1.47 total)
3 yeast packet strips (9 packets total, clearance) $1.74 each ($5.22 total)

Total $32.75


Here's what I ate today:

Breakfast: French toast with peaches
Lunch: Liberte Mediterranee yogurt, hummus and cracker pack
Dinner: tilapia tacos
Snacks: banana, honey roasted peanuts
Beverages: Crystal Light, water

Jeremy had a team meeting at work at an Italian restaurant, which was paid for by his employer. He got spaghetti and meatballs. He skipped breakfast, but his lunch was huge.

His nephrologist called today and told him he should cut his intake of fruits and vegetables by about 25%. I suspect that most of his potassium is coming from dried beans/lentils though. He didn't say if this was supposed to be temporary or permanent. Jeremy will go in to see him next week, and ask him then. He was also taken off of a couple of his medications. His potassium levels were still a bit high, so he had to drink more brown chalky stuff.
