So . . . . I have been traveling lots over the last few months.
We cruised with Princess cruise lines. After we boarded the ship, I checked for when I could speak to the dining staff. I went and met with the matride' and reviewed my dietary requirements. I think it made dinner less worrisome as I knew how they handled special requirements. They presented me the next nights menu at each dinner and I was able to select what I would like and they prepared it and or modified it so that I would be able to enjoy the meal! I definitely did not stay on Paleo for the entire trip. It is pretty unbelievable how quickly how non paleo food affects my digestion! Princess cruise lines did an amazing job with the wait staff and dining requirements. I have cruised a lot over my life and this is the first cruise that I have been on that I did not gain weight! It is sooooo amazing.
In June we sailed with Carnival Cruise lines and we pretty much handled it the same way. I was definitely a little more concerned about them meeting my dietary requirements because it was Carnival. But, I was pleasantly surprised! I did not have a single meal that made me sick! I think that it is partially because I am making better personal choices about my foods! Again, no weight gain!
So we are in July now and I am 7 months into being gluten free and I am now down to 147 pounds! It is so amazing to me how gluten affected my weight, I am sure poor food choices played a part as well.
I am going to start the

Wheat Belly Wheat Belly is by Dr William Davis. He has also written a book titled

I definitely recommend this book. It really will give you some insight into our foods, specifically grains.
