Yesterday was awful. I was so miserable, yet I couldn't be because I was super busy. My body seems to be having a hard time letting go of the gluten... it was like withdrawal symptoms. We had ballet, pinewood derby with the Royal Rangers/MPact girls and I had to set up things for church today. I left the house around 8:15 and by the time I got home around 4, I took a hot (HOT!) bath and crawled into bed. I didn't leave bed except to snuggle my 4y/o to sleep until this morning. Yep... in bed for about 14 hrs. Can't remember the last time I did that. I felt that awful.
Today has been better. not 100% and not the amazing feeling everyone says I'll feel once I'm off gluten, but better than yesterday. My brain isn't quite as fogged & my body not quite so tired.
Today is Day 5 of gluten detox.
I made sure to eat breakfast this morning. Sure, nutella & a banana, but it gave me some protein and energy. Lunch was blue corn chips w/ some cheese. Dinner will be grilled burgers in a lettuce wrap and maybe something w/ tater.
I do need to get some gluten free soy sauce. One of my favorite lunches is a bowl of rice w/ some melted cheese & soy sauce. I have to admit that is one thing I've been missing the most.
Small thank yous...
Yay that coffee is GF!
Yay that nutella is GF!
We'll see what tomorrow brings... :/
We get a big bottle of Tamari that is super yummy and GF. San-J Organic Tamari. My kids prefer it to other soy sauce.
