Celery seed/celery are often used for this: Celery seed | University of Maryland Medical Center

and here are other foods that act as natural diuretics:

If using celery, one method would be to juice fresh celery.

Aren't you diabetic and taking medication?
What does your Physician say regarding this issue?

Potassium has been the most effective solution for me. I use a powder supplement daily because I'm not very good at keeping track of how much potassium I'm getting from foods but one choice I often make is Low Sodium V-8 juice which is high in potassium. Here's a page from the Dr. Oz site that has several other suggestions from foods (but if you're under a doctor's care you may want to address this with him/her): Daily Dose: Potassium | The Dr. Oz Show

Thank you. Low sodium V-8 is on my diet. Quite tasty, too.
