A Spoonful of Gluten

Still thinking about the gluten connection because I keep reading about it-like it is the new diet fad or something.  Donaldo doesn't want me to go back to the headache clinic because in 3 years, they haven't helped me.  They just refill my prescriptions that don't really help unless I take enough to make me sleep.  Sigh...had some gluten-free pancakes this morning.  The were ok-but have more carbs in them then the whole grain.  I also had pasta tonight and feel really full and a little head achy.  So....a new neurologist was mentioned to me; he isn't really new because I saw him several years ago, but maybe he has learned some new things :) 
 Been getting into the dark chocolate again...limited but not helpful to the diet. 
 Kristen mentioned in her comment on discipline "it takes 3 weeks to establish a habit." I must be slow because I think it took more like 4 weeks, and I still battle the urges for something sweet.....and something bready (ha ha,I made that word up and spell-check doesn't like it).  Since I eat rye crisp every day-I just found out they are included in the list of things that have gluten.  More to ponder.....
