Why Gluten Free?

This is not a diet blog. This is a blog on living gluten free!

Why gluten free?

I was recently diagnosed with a gluten and egg intolerance. I've lived with symptoms of hypothyroidism for the past 4 years but even though my thyroid was checked, it came back fine each time. What gives? It wasn't until I found a great doctor that checked every single thing that could be wrong. So while I have a hormonal imbalance as well as other things, it turned out that I had high intolerances to both gluten and egg and didn't know it!

That was over a month ago and since then, I've lost some weight and really lost some inches!

I can say it isn't easy. It's all about checking every single thing you eat. It's about cooking at home, reading labels, getting frustrated because there isn't always something quick to pick up in a hurry. And it's about getting healthier and seeing life through a different lens. Whether you are going gluten free by choice as a diet change or because you too are intolerant or have Celiac, this blog is for you!

Welcome!
