Got to watch the calorie
Got watch how much you pee.
Got to look and see
If the meal outweighs me.
Nothing but ice in my glass
Nothing but fat on my ass.
Oh ,the renal diet cook book
Can I trade it in for a real cook?

Oh my, oh me
I don't have to pee.
Isn't it great?
I don't have to wait
In a long bathroom line,
And hear other people whine. 
But in the real long run
I don't know who really won.
Was it you or me?
Let's check with reality.
I have each week six needle sticks.
You have to deal with human pricks.
I have a strict renal diet to be on.
You get to eat filet mignon.
Between you and me and us
I'd like to get off this dialysis bus.

Oh how I want to eat.
Anything would be a treat.
Instead of old ice chips
I want potato crisps.
Instead of rice cakes
I would like a drink the size of a lake.
Moan, groan and whine
The renal diet and diabetic diet do not combine.
I do not understand
How to get meals to plan.
Between the diabetic hubby
And the renal patient me
I have discovered one little thing
Together we better not eat anything.

I still remember the staff dietician telling the story about the patient who just had to have a beefsteak tomato.  The story goes he picked a big one, ate the whole thing and then...died.  Their little way of telling you to avoid those pesky tomatoes.  Now with that said I'll have the spaghetti with rich meat sauce and a couple of meatballs.

I thought fake salt was bad for you because it was high in potassium!  ??? >:D


Regardless that was a fantastic poem!
 more more more  ;D

Late to this discussion, but... There's an alternative to the alternative.  They offer one at my unit and I believe the name is Papa Dash.  It's suitable for the renal diet.

I've seen Papa Dash in a clinic in Spokane, WA.  I wonder why they don't push it more.

I really think you should add in your signature line that you currently have a working transplant because new members you do not know you or have read your previous posts will just think you are a non-compliant patient. You can add it by clicking on your "profile", then clicking "Forum Profile Information" and adding to your signature line.  :thumbup; 

And the tomato story is just propaganda, "Tales" they say to scare us, if they told that to me I would eat a beefsteak tomato right in front of them.  >:D

Right on Epoman!   We are adults after all. And scare tactics do not work on me!

Oh dietitian dear,
why don't you come near?
Do you have a fear of what
Your patient might tell you?
Do you worry about me
and my little food insanity?
Perhaps you should.
I know I would!

Ok, I was working so hard on getting 17 syllables that I forgot all about proper form!  Heading off any literary critics here.
