Survival!!!

   We did it! We survived an ENTIRE MONTH of going gluten/processed sugar free!!!
   No doubt there will probably be a follow up post letting you all know how it went and we'll most likely share the recipes we ended up deciding were good. (The pudding recipe will not be included.)
   Other than the cravings, lack of bread, pasta, and chocolate it wasn't too bad an experiment. Our sugar cravings were held at bay pretty decently by some healthy candies that Irish Rose adapted to fit our diet.
   Even so, I thought I'd share what we had for breakfast on September 1st.

Mmm:) We decided that we were going to go off our diet in style!
This is a salmon/spinach/cheese omelet with a side of brownie (toasted french toast style) and Turtle Track ice cream.

  1. Bravo, you all! Did you feel great as a result of your foray into gluten free and sugar free? I need to take some inspiration from you guys. I have grown seriously lazy with my eating habits lately.

  2. Well. . . it all depends on who you talk to.
    Most of us said we couldn't tell any difference - although we all did manage to drop a few pounds. (I'm wondering how long it will be until they all come back:)
    But it was really interesting to see just how many things we could still eat - we're keeping the gluten free pancake recipe because they are really good.
