Dear Gluten, I think you and I both know this isn’t working. During our 1 month trial separation I’ve come to realize you’re nothing but a mean mis-treater. I’ll look back with fondness of all the good times we’ve had together but I’m moving on. I’ll always love you but I don’t need you in my life anymore. Goodbye forever! And Good Riddance!<\/p>\n

It’s been one month since I stopped eating gluten and I feel SO MUCH better. I knew I felt bad, but since I’ve felt MUCH worse than I’ve felt lately, I didn’t realize how bad I was still feeling. Acupuncture helped my “IBS” symptoms tremendously, but I’ve still been living with all sorts of badness for the past 10 or so years since the acupuncture. I Just needed the lightbulb to go off in my head that I needed to try cutting out gluten. It did and it works! I feel great. I’m not bloated and gassy every night. In fact, I’m hardly ever gassy. My eczema on my hands is better, my joints aren’t achy and sore. I thought I was just old and beat up, but turns out it was the gluten! I feel great. Eating doesn’t make me feel terrible, in fact, it doesn’t make me feel anything but satisfied. I poop, that’s right, the girl with the rabbit pellet poops has now joined the ranks of super poopers.<\/p>\n

I will definitely miss a few things. Warm croissants, wheat pizza dough. But I’ll find my way through the maze or terrible gluten free recipes and find ones that work for me. This cake for instance. It’s close but it needs some modifications. Then it will be as delicious or even more delicious than a flour based cake. I will conquer you, mysterious gluten-free baking!<\/p>\n

So, onward and upward. See ya later gluten!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
