Dr. Gullo's Diet Treats

Two weeks ago I was visiting my family in Long Island when I noticed how much weight certain family members had lost.  I was shocked.  It was a good 20-30 pounds!  I said to both, how did you loose so much weight and what diet are you on?  They told me point blank Dr. Gullo. 

Dr. Gullo believes that if you follow a strict plan that includes 3 meals and 2-3 snacks per day you will lose weight, but the catch is that your meals and snacks must be healthy and portioned.  (For example: natural popcorn, 7 strawberries, 1 Chocolite Bar, 1 apple, fiber Crisps, Greek Yogurt as snacks and plenty of fish, chicken and greens for meals...).


He recommends these Chocolite Bars.  Chocolite bars have a lot of protein and fiber.  This bars keeps you full and in addition gives you that chocolate fix you wouldn't be able to have on other diets.

These bars are low in fat and only 95-115 calories per bar with great flavors like Chocolite Turtle, Cookies And Cream, Cashew Caramel, Triple Chocolate Fudge, Peanut Butter Bar, Coconut Almond and Smores. The best part is they are gluten and wheat free.  Yay!  I was shocked to see that a yummy bar like this that is used for diet plans was gluten-free.  



These bars are even acceptable for the Atkins and Weight Watches diets!  You can also navigate the site by how those on a Weight Watchers Diet use these bars, or how a person on a low sugar/low carb diet uses these bars.  There are many ways to navigate the website where you can purchase these bars.

Another great product from this nutritionist and website are the Vita Bites.  These are like the size of a miniature Peppermint Patti and is filled with Caramel and covered in Milk Chocolate.  The catch?  An ever so slight after taste, because there is 1000 units of Vitamin D and 500 IU of Calcium.  These two vitamins can run deficient when a patient is diagnosed with Celiac Disease.  And the Caramel version is Gluten-free and Wheat Free.  Score! 






I absolutely love these products, and there is no added sugar in any of them.  Sweet!  I strong recommend these products.  You'll be shocked when you try them.  So good!

Enjoy!

Not All Advil Is Gluten-Free!!!

After last night's POST , GF Advil was on my mind and I decided to call Advil/Pfizer this morning to get some more clarification.  In response to my post last night I advised through the website that Advil Liqui-gels, Advil Migraine and Advil Liqui-Gels PM contain a wheat derivative.  After my phone call with a lovely representative I received more information. - ALL ADVIL LIQUI-GELS contain a wheat derivative .   ALL LIQUI-GELS.  So stop these immediately if you are taking the Liqui-gels.  You maybe getting sick from a medication rather then a food and this is so important to recognize!  Just steer clear of Liqui-Gels. -ALL FORMS OF ADVIL MIGRAINE contain gluten .  There is no further information if it is just the Liqui-Gels or the Tablets, Caplets and Gel-Caps.  Pfizer does not have this info therefore they informed me to steer clear of all Advil Migraine pills. Here is what IS GLUTEN-FREE FROM ADVIL: All Advil Tablets, Gel-Caps ( which are different then Li

Hot Chocolate Coffee

Sometimes I feel like there are days only chocolate would understand.  And following a strict Paleo diet does not allot for chocolate eating.  Especially chocolate with added dried cane sugar.  And especially in abundance.  Of course special occasions allot for this type of activity, but today is not that day. So how do you put a sock in your chocolate craving?  Well, simply remove your sock from your foot and put it in your chocolate.  I'm kidding!  Please use a clean sock! Kidding again!!… Often, chocolate cravings can get the best of us, so I created a delicious recipe to kick my craving and your craving.  It's delicious.  And it's perfect for the lover of coffee and chocolate.  Taking a sip of this sent signals of pure decadence to my brain. A lot of my readers often describe how tough it is to drink black coffee without sweetener, so this one is for you guys!!   This recipe is a total Brain Trick.  It tastes sweet and chocolaty, so you think there is swee

Magnolia Bakery-Cream Cheese Frosting

Another amazing frosting recipe from Magnolia!  I swear by these recipes, this is my go-to book for icing when I bake!! 1 pound (two 8-ounce packages) cream cheese, softened and cut into small pieces 6 tbsp. unsalted butter, softened and cut into small pieces 1 1/2 tsp. pure vanilla extract 5 cups sifted confectioners' sugar In a large bowl, on the medium speed of an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese and butter until smooth, about 3 minutes.  Add the vanilla and beat well.  Gradually add the sugar, 1 cup at a time, beating continuously until smooth and creamy.  Cover and refrigerate icing for 2-3 hours, but no longer, to thicken before using. Makes enough for one 2-or 3-layer 9-inch cake Enjoy! xoxo Julie www.goodiegoodiegluten-free.blogspot.com
