Hi! I'm trying to lose 60 lbs of baby weight+ and would love some friends! I promise to be encouraging right back at ya!

I'm also Gluten Intolerant, so if any of ya'll have some tips for dieting with GF recipes, I'd love to swap!

Thanks!
Ash

    I'm been GF for 5 years now, but all the "diet" stuff and plans don't seem to be GF-friendly! I see a lot of salads in my future...

    What do you do for healthy snacks?

    I read the book "Wheat Belly" in October 2011 and have been gluten free ever since. There are some good recipes in it and now there is a Wheat Belly cookbook. I lost 35 pounds without too much effort however I have gained back about 15 pounds. I am trying to lose the 15 plus another 25 pounds.

    I have recently discovered that I have gluten problems...so I'm looking at all this too...started with meds sensitivities now this...I had a blood test that was neg, and was referred to a specialist to do furthur testing...so, I guess I can't really eat GF yet...gotta wait for the test...LOL...I have had major fatigue most of this year, and do better when I go out to eat, feeling much more energized than if I eat at home....anyway, I'm with you guys...

    send me a friend request if yu'd like...it would be interesting to compare notes....
