The Why

I came across this blog the other day. Adventures of a Gluten Free Mom. So far, I am really enjoying reading through it. I would recommend it if anyone wants or needs to look at more info.

I have to say, I do not, at all, look at this disease as being "the worst disease out there". For me, writing this blog, is just that....for me. It is a place that I feel is an outlet. If others read it, great. If not, great. Even though this is not "the worst disease out there" it still doesn't make it easy. Thankfully I am learning that there really are a lot of things that I can still have that I was eating before.

Today has been a lot better of a day compared to these last few. I still am feeling sick in the stomach and there were still some times that I was getting really light-headed. Who knows though if those things are from this or from a bug going around or.....still stress.

I did find a support group that meets once a month. I found it with the help of someone. (Which by the way, thank you everyone for the help and support you have all given. I don't know if you truly understand how much that means to me.) I am rather excited to go to this support group and learn many things and especially to meet other people that are going through this.

Here is a fun article from Adventures of a Gluten Free Mom about cheating with this diet. It was a good read and put some things into perspective.


Breakfast: Cinnamon Chex- GF and yummy!
Lunch: Spaghetti w/sauce and green beans- GF corn noodles. Good!
Dinner: Grilled Tilapia and Peas- Delish and no need for special GF products there.

GF pretzels are pretty good. Thank goodness for finding yummy snacks that are actually GF.
