Mediterranean Diet sort of

Hello,

I am trying to follow the Mediterranean Diet.  I have even learned how to spell it.  It is supposed to be healthy and it is reccomended by the American Arthritis Foundation.

You see Gentle Reader, I have been struck with arthritis in both my knees, as well as my feet.  I am sure it is in my wrists and shoulders as well, but no one has x-rayed them lately to let me know.

I just finished up a series of three gel shots in each knee to replace the hyaluronic acid (the fluid in the joints).  These are supposed to start taking effect in three weeks or so.

So, I have to lose weight.  I am counting calories with MyFitnessPal,  and I am logging my steps with  Fitbit.  Of course, I have to have some light female type surgery next week, so I plan to start a good exercise routine around the beginning of December.

So, what have I bee making?

I made yummy waffles and muffins from the leftover batter with this recipe from the Gluten Free Goddess.

Tonight I made Falafel with this recipe from the MediterrAsian Site.

That is all, I will try to blog again soon.  Maybe this weekend.
