While there may be some few people who are sensitive to wheat/gluten, the mania surrounding the issue is insane. The best way to know if you need to avoid gluten is to be tested by your personal physician.
If you are allergic then you cut gluten out of your diet, not just cut back. I think the driving force behind the current anti-gluten fad is that so many people think it's the reason for their obesity. They seem to figure that if gluten isn't in their foods then they can eat all they want.

I'm not sensitive or allergic to gluten. I cut it out of my diet and felt a lot better by doing it.
it's just pretty much impossible to sustain because, like was said in the op, so many foods have gluten in it.

"Gluten free" foods that mimic their wheat-containing counterparts often contain lots of cornstarch, which is a glycemic nightmare.
I eat mostly non-grain. I feel better that way, and it keeps me off the diabeetus.

The number of people who actually have celiac disease is a minute fraction of the number of people who claim to have it. I wish people would just man or woman up and admit they're insecure about their weight (like the OP here did) instead of pretending it's an actual medical issue.
