I gave up gluten because I have lyme disease and lyme targets gluten. realsustenance.com looks amazing, can’t wait to try out some recipes! I’m still getting use to gluten free, but its been getting a bit easier for me too. Thanks for the advice!

Most whole foods are naturally gluten free one of the hardest adjustments yeast free diet is even more limiting than gluten free obviously not an expert but Good luck!

Ha! We do have way to much in common. I am on day four of a 30-day gluten sensitivity challenge. Like you, I’ve known down deep that I am sensitive to gluten, even to the point that I went gluten-free for six months before doing fertility treatments for my 3-year-old. The sensitivity seems to be progressing, so I thought I would give it a try.

Camille, one of the hardest adjustments I had going GF was adjusting with my love of cooking. If you are stumped for recipes, there’s an amazing blog for GF cooking. Check out http://realsustenance.com. You won’t be missing a thing and you’ll never want to go back! Good luck!

Lauren – I had the same thought!

Cameo, 200 can be good, but it really depends on how many calories you eat a day and how big your meals are. I’m a very small person – 5’1″ with a small bone structure – so unfortunately my overall calorie target is low and an ideal snack for me is really no more than 150 calories.

I gave up gluten for digestive issues at the start of 2011 and after a couple weeks I didn’t miss it at all. I eat so much healthier as a result – I love quinoa, and make some interesting breadlike concoctions with coconut flour and brown rice flour. I also love Kind bars – though I thought 200 or less was a good calorie amount for a snack? No?

Camille we have like twin food likes/issues. I gave up gluten to deal with skin issues as well. It’s really not too hard.

Hi guys! I’m sure this is psoriasis—I’ve been through the gamut of tests multiple times in my life, and mine is actually related to arthritis, too.

Bianca, GF pizza is next on my list!!

I’m thankful I don’t have to give up gluten for health reasons so I wish you the best! I’m obviously not an expert but I do know a lot of people who are GF and eating so many healthy, nutritious things. There are also a lot more restaurants now that offer GF menus – I had a gluten free pizza a few weeks ago and it was delicious Good luck!
