Food allergies...

Quote From: lemonade

Thankyou so much for all the good advice,  starting habits and starting small.  I have been so discouraged because I am really overweight and continue to gain.  I can't  seem to get into the eating right  and excercise mode.  Please send lots of advice and encouragement.
One thing I learned in my quest for health was that I have a sensitivity to wheat. When I eat any foods with wheat ingredients like, bread and pasta, it packs on the pounds in no time. It causes me to retain water and if I eat enough I have low-grade allergy symptoms like sinus problems, fatigue, and trouble sleeping. So, if you get in a healthy eating and exercise routine, but still have troubles losing weight, give a thought to possible food allergies.

The weirdest thing about mild food sensitivities is that these are the foods that we seem to crave. For me it's those baked goods. I'll eat breads, cookies, cakes, pancakes over chocolate and candy any day.
