Hi all, I'm just in to my 2nd week of SB and I'm down 8 lbs. so far. I've enjoyed the variety of recipes and love that I can still have my steak (I have modified my portions). My husband is doing it with me and although he doesn't have very much to lose, he's a big support. My problem will be when I start adding grains, etc. I have celiac disease, which is an allergy to gluten which is found in rye, barley, wheat,etc. Oats are still iffy but there have been some very successful studies in Finland which shows that Oats may be okay for celiac adults. Anyway, my concern is getting the fiber in my diet. I do eat a lot of veggies, but can only eat so much in a day. I'll be limiting my potato content (hardest job). My gluten-free bread is very high in the glycemic index which is not a good thing. Any suggestions for fiber would be welcoming. I'm still trying to figure out this forum, but will figure it out eventually.
