Doing the GFCF thing...

[KnottedYet]

Recipes from the "Paleo diet" meet gfcf needs, too.

Really, there's more food out there that IS gfcf than ISN'T.

Move the focus to unprocessed foods and suddenly you are faced with a cornucopia! Fruits, veges, meats, beans, rice... yum!

I've been gf for about 10 years. It's easier than you think once you look outside the (Kraft Dinner) box.

Alexis: of course you are hungry right now. Eat lots! Your body has been starving as it couldn't absorb nutrients through your damaged intestines. Suddenly the irritant is gone and they function again, so your body is like the starving man let into the banquet - stuffing in all the food it can get! It will slow down. Don't focus on what you can't eat, focus on what you can eat. Corn tortillas. Udi's gf baked goods. Cravings Place and Pamela's baking mixes. And an entire universe of food in its whole and nearly natural state.

It's probably best for me that so many GF processed foods are based on corn .... which I react to worse than I do wheat. Try avoiding corn and corn byproducts some time.
