Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

They apparently caught it early.

I hope I will be fine. I hope I will be okay.

I may go vegan soon.

I'm trying to watch my diet and exercise more now.

I could use all the advice in the world now.

I don't know if this advice is new for you.

The common factors for fatty liver disease are either

  • alcohol (alcoholic fatty liver) or
  • sugars, especially fructose (non-alcoholic fatty liver)

So avoidance of those things, depending on your variant. Check the ingredients on the things you buy. Things like "high fructose corn sirup" should be avoided. Get an overview of how much sugar is in the stuff you buy.

I guess you already have a new diet to manage, going vegan will only complicate that. Don't get me wrong, i'd support it otherwise.

Why not go vegan, exactly?

I am already trying to cut things out. I am having a salad for dinner.

Thanks for telling me about the "fructose corn syrup."

I'm sorry. It's a lot of change and learning at once, I think. I have no idea if the institution in the following link is great but the information seems decent enough.

I don't know much about good vegan nutrition, I know with flexitarian nutrition, B12 for circulation and heart and healthy animal fat for optimal brain/cognitive health can be challenging if you're on the go. Your care provider should be able to address vegan or flexitarian nutrition that's right for you. I think the main thing is sharply curbing added sugars and highly/ultra processed foods as much as possible. Best of luck.

Of course, yes. It's good we caught it early, at least.
