July Challenge - Day 3

Well, we spent $0 today. So, that about sums up the financial update.    :>)

On another note, I'm pretty sure I have an intolerance to wheat or gluten.  So, for now, I'm going to avoid it all together.  I've been thinking that wheat was bothering me for awhile, but every week or so I would still eat something anyway.  Well, this past week I had one of those sandwich thins as a bun for my burger and felt miserable the next day.  Last night I had a whole wheat flour couscous and had some major issues last night and through today.  I spent some time this morning looking up symptoms and think I've had several over the last few months.  When I started the Prism diet back in late January I stopped eating bread and wheat products for about two months.  I've tried over the last couple months to have bread or pasta, but it never goes well with me.  Now, the symptoms are not really new, I've had some degree of them over the last year or so, but they are much worse now after not having wheat for so long.  

Speaking of weight loss, I lost 1.5 pounds this week and I was still feeling severely bloated this morning when we weighed! In all I've lost 45 pounds in I think 24/25 weeks.  Not too bad!

Casey's doing great too.  He just started and is down 16 pounds over the last 6 weeks.

Today's Menu (kind of eclectic today):
Breakfast - made the boys pancakes, Casey had toast & fruit and I had oatmeal
Lunch - Ethan had leftovers, Josiah had PB&H, C & C - chicken & spinach salad
Dinner - veggie meatballs with rice (extra lean ground beef with shredded carrots and zucchini)
snacks - yogurt, fruit, almonds
