Hi!
I thought I would start a thread about new year's resolutions/wishes we would like for ourselves, families and friends. My wish is that my fellow weggies have a healthy new year and a happy one!
Hi!
I thought I would start a thread about new year's resolutions/wishes we would like for ourselves, families and friends. My wish is that my fellow weggies have a healthy new year and a happy one!
To live life to the fullest!
I've never done well with resolutions, but I do have one this year. I need to give up wheat. I've been trying for years after a blood test was positive for Celiac. I can't help but think its all related.
I'm praying that everyone will have a year full of health, strenth, hope and lots and lots of energy!
For all of us, a very Happy & Healthier New Year!!!
I have 2 resolutions this year. I'm not telling anyone what they are. So I guess that means I have three!
Dunno about "cause", Nancy, but trying to digest gluten without the ability to do so will definitely stress the immune system harshly, and, I suspect, drag in all kinds of pro-inflammatory cytokines. That can't be good for the Wegs. Celiac's is an autoimmune disease of the intestinal lining with a strong genetic component. While the tolerance to gluten (the main protein of many grains) does vary, the best results include avoiding wheat, barley, and rye--and to be suspicious of oats, since much of the time that grain is processed in the same machinery as the others. I think your best strategy is to go gluten-free immediately!

As for resolutions, I'm not sure I can actually keep them, but you all know, from a different thread, what I would like to do, and fully intend doing, with a little help from my friends (this means you!). This does, however, require a certain level of health on all our parts, so...let's deal with that!

The only resolution I know I succeeded in keeping was made years ago when I resolved to stop to making New Years resolutions. I did set a goal last year and did succeed in meeting that as noted in another thread. My goals for this year are to try eat better and to exercise several times a week even if they are just for a few minutes. I also have some projects to complete which might fit under goals but they are task limited.
I do not normally do resolutions, but this year I hope to eat more healthy food (ie less processed junk), to exercise a little more and hopefully loose some weight. As for the wish side of this thread, I hope we all have an excellent 2012 health and wealrh wise.
