Gluten Free...

For those of you who know me well know that I have had a history of stomach aches and headaches...

Lately they have gotten worse and no doubt that it is probably due to my insane 75hr a week schedule and too many runs through the fast food window...last week I decided to do a cleanse, restart and try to eat better. I did a healthy grapefruit cleanse that included a half a grapefruit at the beginning of each meal, eggs and bacon for breakfast, and salad and meat for lunch and dinner. There was also a list of things I could and couldn't eat.
During the week that I was on the cleanse I didn't have a single stomach ache or headache - amazing!!! but I missed bread and sugar and all the delicious foods that life offers - 
After the cleanse I went back to normal eating habits but no fast food. This also meant that my stomach and headaches came back. After much research and observing eating habits I'm suspecting that I might have an allergy to gluten... 
so here I go - - - Gluten Free - - - 

it's not going to be fun or easy, but it would be better then dealing with the constant stomach and headaches that I deal with daily! I also found this blog: gluten free goddess with tons of delicious recipes so this week I'm trying her chicken soup - wish me luck!
