I have been instructed by my kidney specialist to start following a low fat diet to try to get my cholesterol down. High cholesterol is one of the side effects of the kidney disease I have.
I have been told to eat between 20-36 grams of fat per day, not to count calories, to try to eat whole grains and restrict sugars. I was interested to hear from others following a low fat diet as to how many grams they usually consume per day, any problems they have encountered.
I have also been told to only eat beef or pork for one or two meals per week. This may be one of my toughest challenges.
Also, I love Mexican food and know that it is high fat. Anyone with good recipes for low fat?
Thanks
Elaine
