I sure do love milestones. This one is my 6 month mark. I can barely explain how great it feels to say that. 6 months into my life. The one that matters, not the sick one. The awesome one. I only have one question. Can you imagine how excited and happy I will be at my one year mark. Well now I’m halfway there, and it will only get easier. Much, much easier.
Wow, I spent a whole paragraph talking about 6 months and I didn’t even say what it was for. Can you tell I’m excited? In case you were wondering, this is 6 *whole* months gluten free, as a wonderful healthy (I’m getting there…) amazing Celiac.
I think that I will celebrate, even internally, every month gluten free as it is a triumph and a wonderful step. If you were to read about how I felt 6 months ago compared to how I feel now, you would be happy too. Maybe you are, I hope so, because this rocks. So much.
xoxo
A Very Happy Lauren

That is awesome! I’m only 3 months in, and feeling so much better (most days). Seem to have more joint pain the last while though, which shouldn’t be happening, I’m only 31.
Congrats on your 6 months though, it’s not THAT hard, eh? Just stinks when you can’t eat out. I found a GREAT bread recipe though, so I don’t feel I’m lacking that way.

My sister was just diagnosed with gluten and dairy allergies (so far) - there is such an awesome community out there with a wealth of so much yummy food to share, it’s just awesome

Hi Lauren- Congrats on 6 months gluten free. A friend of mine is/has celiac so I will be stopping by in the future for some recipe ideas for next time I have her over.
