My second 3 days of GF complete, and the findings did change somewhat from the first 3 days GF. That said, during the first 3 days GF I was training normally, the only change I made was in my diet.

This is a cry for help!! Yesterday, while out walking my dog I managed to slip on some icy stairs and by the time I landed I was 3-4 stairs lower than when I started.

My first day of gluten free eating is rapidly coming to an end. I've decided to implement the 3 days off gluten, 7 days on, 3 days off protocol to see if I notice any changes. The first thing I noticed was that the rice bread I had for breakfast was a little spongy.......couldn't really get it to what I would call toast??? Tomorrow I think I'll have Koala Crisps instead!!
