gluten-free update

so, for all of you that do not yet know this, i am on a gluten-free diet. i have felt sick for a long long time, since high school actually. well, my doctor recommended i try eliminating different foods from my diet, so i tried multiple options. finally, i went on the south beach diet to lose weight and i had never felt better during phase one of the diet! (just so you know, phase 1 cuts out all grains). the first day i went back on grains, i ate fiber one cereal for breakfast. i just about died! i realized that this must be the cause of all my pain in my stomach, bloating, headaches, and fatigue! i went on a gluten-free diet in january at the start of the new year and have never felt better. i tested positive for celiac's disease only about a week ago and my lifestyle continues to change! keaton and i have separate butter dishes, separate toasters, separate shelves in the pantry, separate peanut butter...where does it end??

i am looking for some serious advice from my fellow celiacs on some good recipes or good recipe sources. i bought cooqi flour and have read the g-free diet by elisabeth hasselbeck (which i loved). any advice is good advice! i have become pretty decent at making g-free cookies and g-free bread tastes the same to me now.

since my pain is gone, i definitely am a lot happier and i am happy to finally figure what has been going on for so long.

i am blessed to have something that is so easily fixed, with just a diet change!
