Hi Folks,
Had a lovely meeting tonite where we shared some bunless burgers from Blue Gill, some home meade brownies, and homemade soup. We talked a bit about Dr. William Davis and how he's an outspoken figure in the world of those who are wheat-free, and we swapped ideas about our own ongoing health issues related to gluten. We are all working on surveys to tally up the most popular ideas for future meetings, and next meeting is scheduled for April 18 at 6:30, again in the Medical Arts Building. Agenda to be determined. We'll plan for a social dinner somewhere in between, probably at Blue Gill, which is getting high marks for taste and awareness of our issues! Stay tuned. If you've got a particular topic you'd like to see covered at a meeting, please let me know at GIGgainesville@gmail.com.
Many thanks again to Linda for staying late and hosting us, setting up video which turns out we didn't use, and for all of our attendees who lugged stuff in for all to share.
More soon!
Janet

Meeting reminder/New Favorite Websites
So, please remember our Feb. 21 meeting. We'll be watching an interview of Dr. William Davis, but even if you've seen it, please come, as we can also chat about his Wheat Belly book. Also, I've got some other items on the agenda, having found some new energy for 2013 to help get the word out for our group! But I need your help and attendance.
My new favorite websites: Mark's Daily Apple and NomNom Paleo. These are not entirely for you if you're a vegetarian, but there are recipe banks GALORE and you'll not find a single one with gluten. For about the last month or so, I've been eating paleo-- no grains, no sugar, no beans, and no dairy. I must say, with a little bit of research and exploration, this is NOT limiting, and I've been eating like a queen-- some really flavorful foods!
Someone suggested that we have a group (or two) to talk about our favorite healthy living book or gluten free book, and why we like it. I'll talk paleo! I'm not sure I'm ever going back. I just feel great, and did I mention I gave away half my pants b/c I've lost 7-8 lbs? :-) And I am NEVER hungry.
But, since this is a blog for the Gluten Intolerance Group, I'll encourage everyone to check out the websites b/c the recipes are all gluten free and there's a huge section on each for vegetarian recipes as well.
Hope to see you soon!
