Eating gluten free is not as difficult if you eat mostly fresh fruit, veggies, and meat. The meat can be tricky if you plan on using processed meats, but it you are willing got cook our own, all is well. I am not a big dessert person, so I didn't have any bread-like food this week. My stomach has not had those cramps that make it difficult to live, so I know there is progress.
I guess I was thinking that all the excess weight would fall off immediately if I started eating gluten free, but alas, that is not the case. I have seen a slight drop on the scales since before Christmas, but not the miracle I was hoping for. But I shall persevere...more for the health than the smaller dress size, but I expect that to happen, too. Things like not being exhausted all the time, less joint pain, no bloated feeling, and lower blood pressure are more important, so I will make those things my goals first.
David was gone this week, so my dinners were more like snacks...a little meat and some fruit or lettuce. The real lazy person's way of eating. Maybe this week, I'll actually have a menu and eat meals instead of snacks.
