Yes, I do have a wheat allergy, but it does not seem to be triggered by Dreamfields pastas.

Otherwise, my diet is as you describe. However, I am an *OLD* lady, and my hormones are no longer tip-top.

Losing weight is a terrible struggle for me, and it always has been. I have never met a doctor
who would help me, or even try.

I have had more than one doctor call me a liar when I gave him the food/exercise diary he
requested.

Only one guy grabbed me around the calf and said, “You really DO exercise, don’t you!”
But he was referring me to someone else, not treating me himself.

However, I will never give up.

The Movie Reviews

"A Little Romance"

With Diane Lane, Sir Laurence Olivier, Thelonious Bernard, Arthur Hill, Sally Kellerman,
Broderick Crawford, David Dukes, Andrew Duncan, Claudette Sutherland

1979, Rated PG, for kissing scenes between very young teen children, 110 minutes

A very bright pre-teen American girl, Laurel (Lane), meets a smart boy, Daniel (Bernard) the
same age, in Paris, where her actress mother (Kellerman) is working on a Broderick Crawford
(himself) movie directed by a man on whom she has a crush. Laurel and Daniel meet an elderly
man (Sir Larry) with a lot of romantic notions and stories about his late wife. From all he said,
the one thing that the kids want to do is go to Italy and kiss under the Bridge of Sighs at sunset
when the bells are ringing at the end of day. Then they will love each other for ever. It was cute
and delightful.

"G.I. Joe: Retaliation"

With Dwayne Johnson, Channing Tatum, Bruce Willis, Walton Goggins, Ray Stevenson,
Adrianne Palicki, RZA, Ray Park, Joseph Mazzello, Arnold Vosloo, Byung-hun Lee,
Jonathan Pryce, Elodie Yung

2013, PG-13 for intense sequences of combat violence and martial arts action throughout, and
for brief sensuality and language, 110 minutes

An elite team of patriots, the G.I. Joes, is framed for treason by an aspiring global conqueror
who has replaced the president (Pryce) with himself by use of a perfect nanobot disguise. The
team is attacked and killed, but for three, Johnson, Palicki, and Park. They discover what is
going on and must recruit help to stop it. It was a really great shoot-'em-up.
