Tonight i had lunch with hubby at work, we had Mickey D's.  I ate a regular #1 (Big Mac) no cheese with a light lemonade and 8 renagels 

Can you OD on renagel? Is 8 alot at one time, or do you think the worse the food is for you the more renagel you should take to compensate??? Boxman

[bolta72]

Good question Boxman, the most I have taken for a meal is 3.

Everyone's different, but on average, each Renagel handles about 70 mg of phosphorus.

My neph and dietician are well aware of the amount of Renagel i take, they have never told me not to take so many, problem is, even though i am taking alot, my stupid phos. is still high     I think they are going to cut down my renagel and add a Fosrenol, (ohhh yum)

Rob is supposed to take 3 Renagel with each meal.  If he had something that contains more phosperus he was directed to take more with that meal.  His neph said not to do it on a daily basis, but now and then is ok.

1/2 cup sliced celery

1 egg
4 medium green bell peppers, halved lengthwise, cored and seeded

i mix the seasoning packet in with the beef mixture and then put some chili powder in with the soup. it seemed to bland to me the other way. i also only let it cook about 5 hours. i don't like my peppers mushy.

I take 3 with a low -phos meal and up to 6 with anything higher - I adjust according to how much phos is in each meal.  I do it every day.  My neph and dietitian know - they encourage it.

A salad with hot banana peppers. I am still having this unusual craving for hot and peppery stuff. 
By the way, I don't like hot banana peppers, but now I can't get enough. I have been really good for over a week, but I broke down and bought some at Wal-Mart last night.
