well, I'm back after a very long summer and fall. Ok, it's technically still fall but it feels like it should be way past at this point. I was able to go on vacation for a couple of weeks. Went camping so it was easy to control diet. My problem came when we got home and son got an acting job 70 miles away. We traveled every day for two months and did a lot of eating out. Needless to say I've put on a little weight (although I had lost 20 this spring and summer and only gained 3 back) and I'm all windy and grumpy. Hubby and I just talked 1/2 hour ago and said we both are getting back to 100% gluten free starting tomorrow. Neither of us should have gluten and he had to come home early today because of his stomach.

My ra was much better when I was gluten free, now I'm in a big flare and am on prednisone again.

Life is slowing down now so I can focus a little better on my health and diet. Son is in another acting job but rehearsals are earlier in the day and he can go by himself. ok, that alone makes me want to stress eat that he's driving so far alone but I'm getting more and more used to it and not getting all keyed up everytime he says 'goodbye' and heads out the door.

all in all, I learned this year that no matter how busy I am, I must be ever diligent in my eating choices.
