I agree with the others that you should consult with your dr first and get some advice about where to go to get ideas about what you can eat. Since you have so many health issues, I am sure you have been to quite a few doctors and have gotten pamphlets etc.

You can Google "diet for diabetes gout hypertension etc" and see links for ideas. It is endless what is out there, you know its out there, you just have to decide to do it and try it.

Sun City Linda had an excellent idea about soup! Soups are easy, you can throw in any kinds of veggies that you want, and they are filling, nutritious, and(obviously) full of liquids, which you need. Soups and salads are the easiest ways to eat vegetables. Fruits can be eaten raw, juiced, baked, or stewed. If you really hate to be in the kitchen, your local markets should offer pre-cut and packaged produce and you can just add them to packaged low-sodium broths. Empty your pantry and fridge of your sodas and "bad" foods so you won't be tempted.

Your health is your #1 priority and you are worth it girl! We want you around for many years to come and that's why we are all posting here for you.
