What it’s like

So I’ve been attempting the gluten free thing for a couple months now. It’s not just bread and pasta that bother me though. I guess my insides are so corroded that basically everything makes me hurt. I’ve been trying to avoid all bread, pasta, malt, alcohol, sugar, excessive salt, caffeine, acids, and anything too spicy. Which basically leaves fruits, veggies, and meat…the paleo diet.

My inexplicable dependency on food and drink has made this much more difficult than it should be but I guess there are much worse things I could be dealing with. Anyway, I thought I’d share some thoughts on how I feel about this whole thing…
