There are different ways to do it. More weight to loose stay off all grains for a while. Some folks do a paleo version using almond flour (*not* low calorie!) For Thanksgiving and Christmas I used a gluten free flour from King Arthurs (a brown rice blend) that is substituted one for one and worked great. This blog is written by the author of the book http://www.wheatbellyblog.com/ reading thru it is really interesting and gives a crash course. Basically wheat has been so modified that it causes a lot of problems. I noticed, on my own, that sometimes I just felt slimmer in the morning. Checked what I ate and those were the wheat free dinners. (Always eat the same thing for breakfast and lunch so knew it was dinner only.) When I read about the book it made sense so ordered the book. Since I need to be carb cautious anyway this is an easy way to do it. My bloodwork and bp went way down. May also be due to a new med but I wonder... Next test may tell more.
Honey, I gave that up ages ago, unfortunately! (sigh) Sing along with me now - "Memory - All alone in the moonlight - I can smile at the old days ... "
Froggy, thanks so much for that information. I'm going to do this now and look forward to my next check-up. Who knows what might happen when I feel good and have a waist again! I'll give up wheat for Lent as a start.
I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow. I feel my fate in what I cannot fear. I learn by going where I cannot go.
We think by feeling. What is there to know? I hear my being dance from ear to ear. I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow.
Of those so close beside me, which are you? God bless the Ground! I shall walk softly there, And learn by going where I have to go.
Light takes the Tree, but who can tell us how? The lowly worm climbs up a winding stair; I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow.
Great Nature has another thing to do To you and me; so take the lively air, And, lovely, learn by going where to go.
This shaking keeps me steady. I should know. What falls away is always. And is near. I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow. I learn by going where I have to go.

I have been off wheat for a couple months now. I think it is working!
I've been thinking about doing that. Are you using other kinds of flour, etc, or leaving it all off entirely?
