    Have you ever read the book "Make ShiFt Happen" by Dean Dwyer? I actually read that BEFORE Wheat Belly and I found it much more inspiring!

    No, I'll go look it up on Amazon. It has always annoyed me that while I eat healthier than most, and no more than most, I still struggle. The final part was this year. I gained weight while buying a house and moving, strictly from stress eating. But I gained more, even when I was done with that, walking 3+ miles a day, gardening, and eating pretty well. Something wasn't right.

    Read this instead of the book. Wheat Belly is unsupported nonsense to sell books.

    If "wheat belly doesn't exist then I will vouch that it DOES FOR ME. I switched from white flour to wheat and was having massive bloating immediately. I had to call in sick to work after going home for lunch and having a whole wheat sandwhich. I tried it a few times and then noticed on days I didn't have wheat, I was fine. So I gave it up and then when I revisited it, I found the same issues. I am definitely not able to have wheat.

    Just curious if anyone here has gone wheat/gluten free after reading Wheat Belly.

    I did a trial period late last summer and had great results. Increased energy, decreased stomach distension, clearer skin, fewer headaches/backaches, etc. But, it is a complete lifestyle change and I was not ready to adopt it fully just yet.

    My husband and I are thinking of getting back on the wagon and making a permanent change, especially now that there's been some success clearing up A.fib (hubby has it).

    So, I'm looking for some wheat belly buddies, if you're out there, shoot me a friend request!

    Thanks!
    I tried to discuss this in a thread yesterday and got laughed at and made fun of. I know all about this. I was told, "there is no research to support this by posters here, etc". I am currently trying to cleanse and take care of this now. Do you believe that this is from overgrowth of Candida?

    the best fitness & health research is something that works for YOU, maybe not for others..join the primal/paleo group here and you'll get a better discussion.
    I will. Thank you!

    I started Paleo on 1/1/13 to try something new.. wasnt having any luck in 12 months counting calories and killing myself at the gym. in 7 days I'm down 7 lbs.. and only with walking on my lunch break. I feel alot less bloated, certainly getting plenty of fiber aka veggies and protien. No grains, just light dairy (cheese in my salads). I feel great.. I have great hopes for this change of eating habits.
    I don't know how to delete, but this should be a delete.
