thx so much, it was great. my boss is nice and the work is interesting. Thats so great that you cut those things out and you feel better. those are MY mainstays also i lOVE cheese...and wine. but wine is gluten free...but not good for dieting or waistline i guess. wow no meat in 8 years. amazing. I just recently bought Raw Protein Vanilla flavored powder mix to put in drews spinach shakes...its vegan, gluten freet, organic etc. I have to admit, its not that good as vanilla whey protein i had but i figure it's got to be good for me lol.

So i went gluten free by mistake. when i did the initial diet bet i really wanted to "kick ass" and cut out all breads, pastas, etc. Not realizing that I had also cut out gluten about a week or two into it. Since I was pre diabetic i ate Rye bread/toast pretty much every day. I suffered from bad palpitations that my cardiologist said i was fine basically and to live with it. i also have other "weird" autoimmune diseases...well knock on wood, after being gluten free for almost 2 months i haven't had maybe 3 palpiations and the "other" problems seemd to go away. can't be coincidence can it. Also not to mention i feel my gut has gone down significantly. So thats enough for me to stay gluten free.

Stephanie we miss you! Do not give up! look at your before and after from last round and get your butt moving or at least keep eating clean.

Stephanie

Simone I'm here! Not giving up, will never go back to my old eating habits. I've still been sick..my daughter was home from school all last week. So today I took cough medicine and went back to bed. The coughing is so terrible i want to cry. But I will never give up :) Thanks for your posts!

Your enthusiasm and posts in the first dietbet helped me so much. Thank you.

Stephanie

EB that is really awesome, thanks for taking out the time to tell me that. my daughter was sick all last week and I've been sick too. I haven't been feeling "positive" but am here and not quiting!

Simone BK

Sorry to hear you both were sick. A good week to stay indoors and recuperate. Lived most of my life in NYC, now in SF, may move back to be with my children. Not making much headway myself in the weight dept. As I get lower on the scale the more difficult it get to take the weight off. Good Luck!

Sick, the weather is lousy of course you are feeling discouraged. I am all so feeling i may not make it, since i am at that weight that my scale loves. This is really not about money but feeling heathly and strong. Just think how you will look this summer if you keep it up. Rest up a bit and then kick butt!!

Stephanie

Thanks Simone :)

I think of the pics of you at the start and end of challenge 1. That reward is better than money.
