I read a few years ago that potassium and magnesium were very important for health, but a lot of people are deficient in one or both. Potassium is vital for a few important functions so no wonder mum was poorly. I'm pleased you've given up keto. I don't think it is healthy but apparently is good for weight loss, something you don't need to worry about. I think we always expect our mums to be there, it's a huge loss when we loose them. Sending love to you both xx

Thank you love x

[@loueelamb234]

Morning lovely lady! Sorry to hear your mum is poorly and you are going through that worry. Similar for me right now, found out my mum has cancer just a couple of months ago so tough times. Im 52 and mum 79, its just what happens in this period in our lives sadly. You look after yourself too though wont you? More snuggles with Jack are the order of the day! 😀 Love your jumper! Loved the haul! Look forward to seeing you soon. Love Louise in Southport xx

[@TheBudgetFoodie]

Oh no I hope your mum isn’t too unwell it’s so sad seeing loved ones go through bad health conditions xx

[@picking4profit]

Sending best wishes to your mum. It is hard with elderly parents going through illness and ageing. Be kind to yourself as it takes it out on you too with the stress and worry. My dad has been through a lot of health issues in the last few years and he is 86. Good to see you stick with one ingredient foods

[@cm-ft8wd]

Hey Rechenda love your videos as always. You’re a comfort to me. So sorry to hear about your mum. I’m praying for her ❤please god she will be home soon and on the mend. My own mum has been in hospital a few times as she suffers with really bad stomach pains and liver issues. It’s so scary getting a call from my brother or someone else saying mum is in hospital. One thing I do remind myself when it happens is this: ‘in order to look after anyone else, you must first look after yourself’. I couldn’t break down when my mum took ill. I had to make sure I was eating well myself, exercising and sleeping well because if I’m exhausted and not well I’m going to get sick too and then I’m no good to anyone. I feel you hard on the giving up carbs thing, I tried it for a month or more but I am a mum myself and I was so tired all the time on Keto. I also was stressed trying to prepare different food for my son and then for myself and partner it was too much work on top of all my other responsibilities and my job. You’re right a balanced, healthy diet free of ultra processed foods where possible is the way to go. I started making my own bread using flour and buttermilk in my air fryer.its so good with real butter. Just for a treat at the weekend. Life is so short ❤ sending love and light to you and jack and your mum

[@TheBudgetFoodie]

Thank you so much for this lovely comment. Well done on the home made bread! I managed keto for two months. But no more. One ingredient food where possible but won’t beat myself up if I stray occasionally. Your poor mum with stomach and liver issues. But you are so right about self care first xx

If you put the basil stems in water and you can grow your own basil for free. If you use herbs then growing your own is the way to go and most aren't difficult to grow.

[@TheBudgetFoodie]

Oooh fab tip x

[@Victoria-kl7su]

Looks like you got lots of good items but I find Morrisons quite expensive in general and as you say their reductions are stingy. I do the reductions for M&S and ours are always half price if not more - by 4.30 I reduce everything that is left to 25p as otherwise it has to go out as food waste - so you may want to check out your local M&S food haul later in the day (after 2pm) - Also Lidl sell veg boxes (usually behind the till on the packing counter for £1.50 - this morning I bought one and it had a large mixed lettuce bag, a bag of oranges, a bunch of bananas, a lemon, a bag of carrots, 3 avocados, a butternut squash, a big carton of mushrooms, celery and a lime - all for £1.50. - Absolute bargain Best wishes to your Mum and I hope that she gets well very soon XX

[@TheBudgetFoodie]

Ooh those are some excellent tips will check out M&S later in the day. Also what time should I get the Lidl £1.50 box? X

[@joannacurran8475]

My family all live to be in their 90s and all ate carbs. It is moderation and clean food, no chemicals back then and the carbs were needed for the manual labour, bringing in the wood or coal etc. As they say, variety is the key to life. Love to your mum.

[@TheBudgetFoodie]

Wow I love this and you’re so right xx

[@jvp9703]

My mum had a scare about 7 or 8 years ago. Had an ear infection and this somehow affected her heart. She looked really bad and I had to wait around 6 hours in A&E with her. She was only in her late fifties, so I knew she would pull through. I was weirdly in a state of calmness through it all. We all worry about our parents, but what can we do? Can't stop nature. And they won't listen to us about living healthily anyway. Just be there for them I guess. Btw, get your mum to eat bananas, they have lots of potassium. About the Keto thing, I heard it's good for short term weight loss, but this is the first generation where this diet is being adopted en masse long term, so no one really knows how things will turn out. Even cavemen ate nuts and berries, so Keto is quite experimental. What we know for a fact is that the longest living people in the world live on the Mediterranean diet, which allows for fats carbs & protein in a healthy balance. Just what we humans were meant to eat!

[@TheBudgetFoodie]

Bananas are a good call for mum! Lovely advice xx and yes I love Mediterranean food, we got this 💪❤️

[@GinaBertolo]

I am sorry to hear about your Mom. Do take care of yourself as times like these can be very stressful and your Mom would want you to be ok. Regarding Keto, I say everything in moderation so a nice balance of all foods with reasonable portions should provide you with all the needed nutrients. You are so inspiring with your candor, honesty and real personality shining through - I appreciate it! And I love that you sing to Jack - I sing to my cat Francis too….crazy made-up impromptu songs.

[@Maya-11146]

I am so sorry to hear about your mum. At the age of 69 my mums lung cancer came back for the second time. This time stage 4. No going back. I was kind of prepared better the second time. But, what i was not prepared for was, not being able to say goodbye to her. I am sure there are many good hearted, hard working NHS workers. But, in my mums case this was not the case. She was deteriating/ for 5 hrs before she passed. The hospital only called me 10 min before she died. They were supposed to call me instantly. I arrived when she was gone. Her forhead was still warm. Hands were cold. Cut a very long story short....the hospital apologised, they were very sorry. They had no answers though. I did not take it further like the management wanted me to. I was too broken. This was two years ago now. I have suffered so badly not being able to say goodbye to her. I wanted to be there for her by her side holding her hand. This is what she wanted. I took 2 months off work unpaid, so i could be there for her like a shot. Sadly that was taken away from me and from her. I miss her so very much. The pain will never truly go. Mums are so precious. All i can say is spend time with your mum, make sure she is ok. Check up on her and just simply love her. I am sure you do anyway. Thank you for all the time you take to upload. I truly enjoy each and every one of your videos. I hope your mum will be just fine. Sending lots of love ❤️

Loved your comment about the humble spud. Use other seeds instead of pine nuts for pesto, eg sunflower seeds (cheaper). I pick up the herb plants in supermarket and plant in garden or keep on window sill. The hardy ones i kept a few years but do need some basil. Top tip, you can make pesto from carrot tops of you come across them.

Hey Beautiful. I spend 125 pounds a week for 3 adult men, a 10 year old boy and myself.. not including household stuff or shampoo razors etc. So 25 each per week.. do you think that is good. Boys eat alot so can't reduce it and still struggle x

[@carolking4124]

Hi, I quite like cottage cheese, I blend it, then just eat it out the tub instead of yoghurt. I also like mexicana cheese but realised if I buy red Leicestershire, or Gloucester cheese I have better spice control just adding chilli flakes. My parents have always bought standard cheddar, and I freeze it as I dont use it all that much. I dont have low food budget allowance, but I still look for decent value and buy cheese at sainsburys when its on offer usually. Sorry about your mum, your cant predict the future so do what you can with her while you can, I look after my mum who is a similar age and it can be hard but if you can negotiate your schedule to spend time with her I always find I learn valuable insights just being around older people, like she was alive and watching tv when JFK was shot! I like your videos. I am really underweight just now and have a meal plan and FYI my dietcian says we need carbs, that it is one of the easiest things for the body to use, but I really agree with the 5 or less ingredient thing if possible. So yeah, bread and rice and potatos you should eat. 🙂but fruit and veg and protein too, and our brain like chocolate for glucose /bye

[@TheBudgetFoodie]

I know exactly how you’re feeling. My dads got a genetic heart condition, he’s been extremely healthy his whole life, to the point it took quite some time for them to realize he had the heart condition. With modern medicine and him taking proper care it’s not much to worry about, but I found out he missed a family event for stent placement surgery and I yelled at him after for not telling me. He didn’t want me to worry because ‘it’s not a big deal anymore’, I could’ve strangled him lol Parents once they hit a certain point I think they do things just to make the kids worry as a sick revenge for childhood. It’s very smart for you to consider your mom’s current health concerns and how you probably are at risk for similar and adjusting accordingly.

You should try to eat more plant based foods for both health and budget. Lentils, beans, tofu etc are a lot cheaper than meat. Also single ingredients. I feel so much better overall after adopting a plant based diet. Eating less meat but better quality when you do is a good approach.

I hope your mum feels better soon. My grandad got sent to hospital this week as he collapsed 3 times in one day. He has diabetes, Parkinson’s and other health issues so is quite frail. He has been told he has some kind of infection so we are hoping he will be back home soon x
