Haifisch posted:If you're in a situation where you're considering fast food and can't/don't want to cook, do your body and wallet a favor and pick up some premade meals at the grocery store instead. They're more expensive and less healthy than cooking for yourself, but they're less expensive and more healthy than fast food. And they have nutrition facts printed right on them so you can avoid the ones that are really awful in the sodium/carbs department. You just have to put in the effort of figuring out which ones are okay-ish for you once and then buy those in the future. And you buy multiple at a time so you only have to go to the store when it makes sense in your schedule. Not having a fridge/freezer limits things a bit, but least canned/shelf-stable boxed stuff is an option. (seconding the Tasty Bite recommendation from a few pages ago, btw) Premade meals would be perfect for him, there's a plenty of shelf stable ones. Indian cuisine is generally pretty good for this, soft pack microwavable ready-eat meals, add in a microwavable cup of brown rice and you have a very tasty and fairly nutritious meal with known nutritional information on the package. All for about $3-4 a meal. Buy the rice cups in bulk and you can use them for other things. There's probably also microwavable quinoa or other grains, they will likely cost more but add some variety. I'd also really recommend stocking up on some kind of granola/oat bars as they good as an impulse snack that will stop you buying fast food.

Rytheric posted:So one warning sign of gout I've discovered is the hot knee. Right now my knees are radiating so much heat that I'm quite toasty under my blanket. Why I'm about to have a flare up despite eating better though probably has to due with a lack of sleep lately and the effects of eating better things bit to take in. Or I'm blowing myself out so much I'm getting dehydrated. This is a circulation thing pretty sure.
