I can't believe it's been 7 weeks on this program already. Amazing. I've never stuck with anything this long.
Well, I have been so sick to my stomach today. I know that it's gluten. I can tell by my reaction. It's just like before I was diagnosed. I was in the bathroom all morning and we couldn't even go to church. I can't figure out where the gluten came from. The only thing I am thinking is I've been eating this granola cereal (no gluten ingredients listed) and I had a small bowl of chili at Steak N Shake yesterday. Also not supposed to have any gluten. I just don't know, but I'm getting rid of that cereal and I'm just going to keep an eye on things.
I have not stuck to the food plan today because it's hard when my stomach feels so awful. I can't eat a lot of protein. I had oatmeal and a pear for breakfast and I felt awful. But here's the weird thing. I had a craving for m&ms. Had a bunch even though I knew I shouldn't. And I felt better. I don't know what the deal is, but I have felt better ever since. Haven't been to the bathroom since. Still not 100% but better than this morning. Wierd, huh?
Celiac disease is so strange. But it's so much better than other diseases so I'm thankful. I'm going to try to eat better the rest of the day. But I do not feel up for exercise. We'll see how things go.
