The Mepron Diet

As I said before, I have to take Mepron (the new drug) with fat.  The first night I thought a bowl of ice cream would be sufficient, not realizing it was low-fat.  I learned a hard lesson that they mean business when they tell you to take with fat.

I'm now complying.

I take Mepron twice a day, which means a pretty substantial amount of fat.  I am considering going back to a low-carb, high-fat diet to ensure I don't gain weight while taking this drug, though I am pretty sure my endocrine system as a whole is so screwed up it wouldn't matter what I ate!  And I'm enjoying the egg nog that has become a daily ritual!

Currently my Mepron meal includes:
- three chunks of Tillamook Sharp Cheddar Cheese (Tillamook is the best, in case you were wondering)
- half an avocado
- half glass of egg nog

So far, this seems to be sufficient.  It's a good thing I'm taking this med during the holidays!
