Day 2, Week 1 cont.

I may have spoken too soon about withdrawl effects.  I was excessively tired today.  I fell asleep for an hour and could have gone longer if I didn't have to go somewhere.  I'm not really craving anything wheat related, so that's good.  I'm finding I'm automatically eating healthier in respect to more fruits and vegetables.  Taking away wheat takes away a lot of snacking choices.  Other than being tired, I am feeling good.  I had a salad, strawberries and cashews for lunch and blood sugars were 113.  Dinner was a mish mash of stuff.  It was a rough night and I just pieced some things together to make sure I got enough to eat.  I ate some turkey sausage, cheese, strawberries and cashews followed by a fudge bar.  I inadvertantly ate something with cornstarch in it when my youngest decided he didn't want his Mighty Mini popsicle.  Davis warns about eating foods labeled as gluten free because the wheat is often replaced with corn, potato and/or tapioca starch.  My blood sugars were still at 127 after dinner though, so I'd call it a success.  I just ate a bowl of Crispex with milk and will head to bed shortly.  We'll see how my fasting levels are in the morning.
