I don't know if it's the same in the UK but there are a lot of wheat free products here that you can buy at speciality stores including pizza, bread etc...

: That is why I started CD in the first place.
:
: Yes I needed to lose weight but I also had a
: problem trying not to eat bread!
:
: So CD answered a lot of prayers. It enabled
: me to go wheat-free. I was badly anaemic and
: had been in hospital needing 6 pints of
: blood. My blood count went back to normal
: within 6 weeks of coming off wheat and has
: stayed up ever since.
:
: So it is a big learning curve for me when I
: go back to eating food, since everything has
: to be wheat-free. I need to make all my
: meals from scratch, which isn't a problem
: just a necessity.
:
: It means I can never go out and have
: pizza/pasta/bread/pies or anything else!!
: Should help keep me under control. We shall
: see .........

: Hi Ann, wow that must be tough being wheat
: intolerant you have to get all sorts of
: special food since almost everything has
: wheat in it, I know that because I tried a
: gluten free diet on my son a while back
: (which really didn't work)not because he is
: intolerant but because there were all these
: studies of how helpful gluten free diets are
: for autistic kids at least 50% of them, not
: my boy!! I haven't made the cookies yet
: it's today's project, I WILL resist
: hahahaha. Hugs. Sandra
