After losing 170 pounds I can tell you life is different. In one way, people smile more and in another way, people didn't fuck with me when I was big. Sadly, what you look like has a lot to do with it becuase that is the only thing people know about you at first.

Just a suggestion: if you eat gluten free tacos because of sensitivity, then you probably marybourg Apr 2023 #15

These ones don't say Meowmee Apr 2023 #16

Sterilizing is fine for getting rid of bacteria, but it does not marybourg Apr 2023 #17

Several people who have celiac told me that sterilizing is very important Meowmee Apr 2023 #18

Soap and water washes off gluten. Sterilizing is not useful. But it can't hurt! marybourg Apr 2023 #20

The water is soapy too Meowmee Apr 2023 #22

If that's what helps , keep it up! marybourg Apr 2023 #25
