Overwhelmed

First off I did a 5K last Saturday and I finished in 56:28 minutes. Last time I finished in 58:12 minutes. I had hoped to finish in 55 minutes. I came close. The point is that I finished. I am working so hard to do this. I am proud that I finish this race. I am doing another 5K in May and I hope to finish faster and run more.
I read everyday. I look for articles about healthy living. Diets for running nutrition, diets for healthy intestinal digestion and on and on. I read an article tonight about Gluten. I can't believe how much of our food that is processed with Gluten or a product made from Gluten. Just how bad it is for you. So on one hand you should eat whole grains then on the other hand no wheat. I live in an area with very limited resources when it comes to Grocery Stores. This is when I need an Whole Foods. The nearest one is in Little Rock. In reading this I began asking Den questions in the article about health symptoms and he answered yes to almost all of them. I told him that he was possibly Gluten Allergic. It will take a move of God to change his eating habits. I call him the processed food king. If it does not come in a box he is lost. I have changed some of that but he is a hard nut.
I am tired of being tired. I really want to feel better and have a better quality of life. So much change is so overwhelming. I don't want to burn out. How do you find a happy medium? How do you change a little step at a time? Have you ever tried cutting out wheat? I looked in my pantry and wow, I would throw most of all of it away. I am trying to keep it simple. I eat the same things all the time. I do try new things and I add to my list of acceptable foods. However simple right now is better.
No matter what I do I Keep moving, that is what helps me get the weight off!
