Yea!!! Thank you Native Rhythms Festival!!! Looks like Ill be eating well at Native Rhythms. For those of you who knew, Im gluten intolerant. In me, it looked like weight gain (I was eating 4-6 pieces of wheat bread daily), it felt like I always had indigestion and was bloated -- I blamed it on the grease in the food, what it was cooked in, bad meat, too much food, too spicy; I blamed it on just about everything but gluten because I didnt know about it. I was cranky (just ask Kimberly) and I was always, always tired after eating a meal with gluten, which was pretty much every meal! When I learned what the problem was, I gave up all pastas, all breads, cookies, packaged goods, gravies, sauces, anything that had wheat or grains it in and believe me, it was ALOT. The first two months, I lost 15 pounds, my energy started returning immediately, and continued as my system returned to normal, my moods definitely improved and gradually, I lost a little more. Now Im down about 20 pounds, but I didnt really have a lot to lose to begin with. Now Ive been able to substitute gluten-free foods when I want a treat, or I just learned to eat lower on the food chain. Rare processed foods, fresh fruits and veggies, meats (not breaded or deep fried), Ezekiel sprouted wheat breads, lots of water which I always drank anyway and I feel incredible. Ive become a huge advocate for gluten-free, non-GMO foods. Its not my business how much money big corporations make or how they go about doing it. I cant control that. What IS my business is my own health, how I feel and what food companies I support. Thank you for letting me show my appreciation for NRFs consciousness and I cant wait to meet The Bald Strawberry people!
