[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am trying to get my mom to eat healthier foods but I feel 1. she is not eating enough 2. low quantity of protein.[/quote] Does she live by herself? I found that my mother will not eat when she eats alone. She prefers to snack but unfortunately, she now has to watch her sodium levels due to congestive heart failure. She loves fruits and veggies but would rather ignore things like protein. I've been working with her to use no sodium peanut butter on toast for lunch. She likes cereals - hot and cold and those are her breakfasts. Dinners are a real challenge - she won't cook, most quick meals are too high in sodium. She does one of two things, seats a high sodium frozen meal or doesn't eat. We have tried meals on wheels but she won't eat alone and the food is just wasted. We have found if we can get someone to eat and prepare lunch with and for her - we try to make that her "big" meal of the day. [/quote]
