Traveling

My uncle passed away suddenly and I am going to have to travel tonight to S.C.

We are driving all night. My question is what do I take with me? The next few days

my diet is going to be turned upside down. I called my DR. and he told me to

make sure and take Imodium with me and to eat carefully. Any advice???

I never travel without some microwave cans of Progresso Chicken Wild Rice soup, you can even find them at drug stores. Pack a cooler with your bread, nut butter, protein bars, whatever else you'd eat at home. We were traveling recently and I ran to the supermarket, bought a rotiserie chicken and small thing of mayo, threw in some dried cranberries and viola - chicken salad.

Take care!

You can take trail mix, almonds, Clif Nectar Bars, Organic Food bars, Alpsnack bars, fruit, veggies, Corn Thins or rice cakes with peanut butter, corn chips, a bag of Tinkyada and a jar of sauce (if you'll have access to a kitchen). I'll often bring a big cooler and put as much stuff in it as possible. Carry food around with you so you're never in a situation where you'll eat something potentially unsafe because you're hungry.

Thank you for your kind words. It means so much at this time.

Thank you for the advice on the foods to take. I haven't had to travel since my dx

and appreciate all the advice.

I'm so sorry for the loss of your uncle. This is a trying time, with out having to worry about to eat.

My suggestions are:

take a cooler, yogurt, cheese, corn tortillas, lunch meat-you can make a quick roll up sandwich that way

Lara bars

Nut thins

if you have time make a pan of brownies

nuts

That's all I can think of, everyone else had excellent suggestions. I'm just so sorry. I hope you journey is safe.

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶

      Thank you so much for the information and kind message! Reading this transformed how I’ve been viewing my efforts and progress. Guess there’s still a lot to celebrate and also heal 😌  Yes, I’ve been taking it! Just recently started taking a multivitamin supplement and separated vitamin D! I also took chewable Iron polymaltose for ferritin deficiency 2 months ago but was unable to absorb any of it.  Thank you again! Hearing such gentle words from the community makes my body and heart more patient and excited for the future.
