done with traveling for now then? we are good, Sasha had her 2nd birthday on Saturday, Sarah got her place in the school we wanted, she starts in September, Carl is a manager at Mcdonalds now and i am learning to cook with gluten free stuff as i found out i am gluten sensitive. How about you what are you up to these days?

Yep! For now, but we will be doing more travelling. Still got our camper van although we are thinking of getting a smaller VW van and converting it to a camper.

My stomach is just a fussy little bugger. I seem to be able to get away with small amounts of gluten but I find I get spacey if I have too much and it upsets my digestion and then I can't digest other foods very well. so I avoid it. Can't have too much milk either. Then there sugar that makes me go hyper. All those cakes look so yummy. I'm going to try and make a gluten free cake, I'm not good at following recipes, I tend to just throw things in a bowl and see what happens :-p

How does guten effect you?

sounds like a plan

Tara mentioned you have problems with milk, so does Sasha, she has always been funny with it but worse since we had a sickness bug so now shes on rice milk, lactrofree milk and soya yogurts, she can handle butter and chocolate and other milk products in small amounts though.
I also can't have too much sugar, if i have too much then the next day i just have a really bad stomach ache and hardly want to eat.
With gluten i wake up in the mornings ok then by late afternoon my stomach would just feel like its struggling to digest everything i had eaten that day so bloating and stomach ache, sluggish tired feeling. There is a very strong link between IBS and gluten sensitivity, lactose and fructose, many people here on DA i have spoken too said they have IBS and going gluten free has improved it, it certainly is helping me.

That's very interesting. That's pretty much the same as me then, struggling to digest everything else. I try to avoid sugar, a little is fine but too much. Might effect my digestion too then, never even considered sugar as a possible cause. Definitely helping me too. I think it's very common, more then people think.

oh yes problems with sugar is a very common thing especially with IBS all refined foods are irritants, also gluten problems is thought to effect 6% of the population, mostly in the western world as we eat so much of it, most people not even realizing it.
