Meet Elizabeth.

I was always a sickly one, coming down with the weird diseases and symptoms that made no sense to anyone.  Finally, when I turned 30, the doctors diagnosed me with Multiple Sclerosis.  

At that point, I was terribly unhealthy -- overweight, not sleeping, in constant pain, daily migraines, having difficulty focusing, asthma.  You name it; I had it.  And to top it off, I just kept getting fatter and fatter, no matter what I tried.

I finally decoded to go gluten free in desperation as a way to dal with MS.  I had read Atkins, so I combined Atkins with gluten free.  The weight melted off.  And I immediately felt better.  It took about six months before I really felt "healed," but I knew immediately that gluten free low carb was the answer to everything -- my health issues, my weight, my headaches, etc. It has been six years, and dropping gluten was the single best decision I ever made.

The new Elizabeth.

CHALLENGES: 
Travel for work, that included meals that were already set.  I travel quite a bit, and while I can usually manage to eat out if i am in control, it is much harder when meals and snacks are all planned banquet style.

ADVICE: 
Do not fear fat.  Eat when hungry, but not on a schedule.  Give it a month before you even touch the scale for the first time.
