Gluten free is ME



So, this is my new thing! I have been thinking about going gluten free for about 6 months and finally took the plunge. To be completely honest I was sick of having to know where the bathrooms were everywhere I went...for me, not for my kids! I used to work in a hair salon and there was this sweet old lady who had the walking farts something fierce and we would all quietly laugh....that was turning into me and Im only 30!!!! My dad decided to try it, I have a few cousins, and an aunt that all really notice a difference. I have been doing it for almost two weeks and can totally notice a difference. The biggest difference for me is the energy, that alone has been worth it! I feel so motivated! I just thought taking zoloft for my anxiety/depression was just going to make me sleepy all the time but the past few weeks have been great!!! I am so thankful. Things have been better in the potty room too! Yes, this is all a lot of TMI but this has been so great and so good for me to be reading labels and what I am putting into my body! I will let you know how it continues to go for me!

I'm very interested in hearing about this. I have no energy and I take Cymbalta for anxiety and depression. Please tell us how you start this life changing experience.

Glad to hear it's going well. If you need any information let me know...I have a binder for Morgan! I have found that more and more things are gluten free and things are labeled so much more then they were 2 years ago! Plus, Kellog's has gluten free rice krispies that just came out and they taste like the real thing!! (sorry, little things thrill us!!)
