Last week I read the eye-opening post that Tim Ferriss had on his site about gluten! I decided to give it up for a while and see how I felt. I am now on day 7. Here is a photo of tonight's supper, a giant salad with a steak on top.
The salad was chopped carrots, radishes, green onion and green pepper on leaf lettuce with some low calorie caesar dressing. The steak was herb rubbed and grilled. I found the crunchy veggies satisfying and filling with the steak.
Giving up grains was not too much of a struggle, but I am having a tougher time substituting celery with my peanut butter than the slice of toast I used to rely on for my mid-morning snack.
What is happening without bread or pasta in my life is that I am losing weight. That part of giving up gluten works. I don't notice any change in my energy, sleep patterns, digestion by not having it, but Tim's guest shot post indicated I would feel it more when I go back to eating grains. I will keep you all posted.
