Ummm, so if I am gluten-insensitive, why do I have to worry about it?

I don’t think that I’m gluten sensitive or insensitive... I just know that ever since (2 months ago, at age 58) I’ve really, really tried to eliminate it from my diet, I’ve lost 20 pounds.

I work on the “2 sentence” diet:

1: The only fatal mistake is to skip breakfast.
2: Get rid of pasta and bread.

I’m on the FreeLoaders diet.

I only eat when someone else is buying.

I’ve lost lots of weight since I started, and saved some $$ too ;-)

I am back on the low-carb type of diet. I have a touchy stomach and take a daily Prilosec and would also take a digestive enzyme before I would eat.

Took the "flour" (bread, pasta, etc) out of my diet and I now no longer suffer from acid reflux. I don't know if it was the gluten or just the wheat that I was having the reaction to; but, since I've stopped eating those things, I feel much better. I have also lost weight.
