Low Iodine Diet (LID), round 2

In preparation for my one-year body scan on June 15 (followed by 5 mCi RAI dose on June 13), I have to start the LID today, two weeks before hand. Hopefully this round of LID will be much better than the first round, last year. I even bought the LID cookbook earlier this year, but didn't crack it open until earlier this month. I was able to read more on the flight legs between LAX and Austin this past weekend. Now if I only had time to do some LID shopping before I left for Austin last week....the only thing I knew for sure that I had on hand for LID is Diet Coke.

So what was for breakfast today? I made myself a bowl of oat meal with (I think all of this stuff is LID-safe):
3/4 cups Quaker Oats (Quick - 1 minute) [100% natural, 100% whole grain, sodium free], mixed with 
A dash of Trader Joe's Himalayan Pink Salt Crystals [made on equipment shared with wheat and soy]
1 TSP of Organic Light Brown Sugar [Organic & Fair Trade Certified]
1 TSP of Trader Joe's Cocoa Powder Unsweetened [Tumaco Cocoa Powder]

I washed that down with 8 oz of Diet Coke. I know, I should have just had water, but the oats were a bit stale, and the only thing I had on hand that is LID compatible to take the stale taste out of my mouth was the diet coke.

Thank goodness today is a holiday so I'm not at work worrying about eating LID approved food. I'm pretty sure Trader Joe's, Henry's, and WholeFoods will be open today. So that is the plan, after I pick up the pests, I mean pets, from the vet/kennel, and possibly after yoga, I'll go LID shopping.
