[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 586987, member: 11791"] Stressed... I don't know if she would buy into this or not, but... any chance you could get her to ditch WHEAT? (easier to do that than to ditch [I]modern[/I] wheat, which is what I've done but it is a LOT of work) Or even try a girlfriend diet? For me, it's WHEAT. For others it's gluten in any form. It "kills" us. As in, saps our energy while increasing our hunger - and an hour later we're hungry again. Which is a sure recipe for weight gain. been there done that. Dropping wheat isn't THAT hard, but does take more home cooking. You can still have take-out pizza... just order it with the gluten-free crust, which guarantees it isn't wheat. Breakfast... girlfriend bread, or oatmeal, or a smoothie, or... lots of options. Chef-salad, or soup (without pasta... pot barley makes a good soup "filler") for lunch. Meat and potatoes and veggies for supper. Fruit and cheese for a snack... a few nuts can be added to that. It took a week to notice a difference in energy levels. One single meal with wheat in it... and it's a three-day set-back. [/QUOTE]
