This picture, I thought, is the counterpoint to the one Sue posted today (q.v.).

I just keep plugging along with my own diet, eschewing high glycemic index carbs and generally eating less. I put on a winter top today, one I haven't worn since last March, and it hangs like a loose bag on me--so I must be doing something right!

One unanticipated good result: my inflammatory index is way down. My doctor says I may have always had a low level allergic reaction to gluten, not enough to have clinical symptoms, but health-degrading over the long haul.

All I know is that I feel MUCH better; better than I have felt in years.

(By the way, I tried Hoodia for weight loss, but it had absolutely no effect on my appetite. Have any of you tried it? Did it work for you?)
