I have a mystery

Two days ago I was packing away my shopping. At the bottom of one of the green bags I found an envelope, sealed, with "Gavin" written on it in red biro. On closer inspection I realised the green bag was not one we'd bought but one that had been inherited (green bags are like pens or cigarette lighters in that way it seems) and it also contained serveral receipts for an IGA in North Melbourne and one from Bed, Bath n' Table in the city. I rang cows_might_fly to see if she knew anything about the envelope and she didn't, neither did vivienne_aster or fnoo. I left a message for clappamungus to give me a call but wasn't able to get on to him later.

So, anyone able to help me out? I've decided that if no one responds with definite knowlege of the owner of the envelope by the time I leave the office tonight I get to open it.

D'ough!

For the past ten days I've been dieting and going to the gym every day for at least half an hour (and I've been mixing it up so that I do weights one day, then swim the next, then play with the rower and treadmill the next etc). I have been doing this because about two weeks ago I weighed myself and I weighed more than I ever have in my life- significantly more. Moreover I feel sluggish, flabby and getting up stairs has become a difficulty. So I decided to get serious about the health stuff, go on a sensible diet and get off my bottom and to the gym (injuries plus sickness plus depression had snowballed and I'd not been in oh, five weeks, possibly more)

So, in ten days I have:
-tried lots of new delicious recipes
-had a serve of yoghurt every day
-eaten salad once every two days
-drunk a lot of water
-not had a single fizzy drink or chocolate bar
-excersized every day
-lost nearly 5 kilos

Which is all very heartening, though I think the most heartening bit will come when I can fit into pants I bought last year, or even the year before. :-)

I've noticed in the past ten days that I've had more energy, felt happier and have had less headaches and stomach aches. Yay!

Then yesterday mc_shamo bought me a really yummy wholemeal sourdough fruit roll to have and my afternoon snack. Yay! Except about half an hour after eating it I got a massive gut ache with bloating and felt incredibly uncomfortable for the next seven hours. Now I've had a bit of bread over the last little while-but not much. Is it possible to be allergic to sourdough but not other breads? Or only to be allargic to bread in largeish doses?

I really hope this is not the start of a gluten intolerance, cos I'm a girl who likes her pastries...
