Before I even touch the title, let me tell you how it happened. After MONTHS of lacking energy, being moody and gaining weight despite working out (and not just ANY working out, taking spinning classes). I was fed up to HERE (you know what that looks like) with my current state. So after browsing the web and self-diagnosing, I was convinced that it was my thyroid. I made an appointment with a primary care doctor that specialized in thyroid and diabetes.
I pull out my notepad and give her the rundown of my symptoms. I mean I put everything that I have felt for the past few months. She was so patient as I went through my list. After I finished she checked my thyroid. She then suggested that maybe I have a gluten allergy. My first thought was, GYRL BYE!
How can I have a gluten allergy? Does she not know that I love bread, crackers, cereal, beer, pasta and everything else that has gluten? Is she trying to ruin my life? I'm assuming she could read my mind because she began to tell me how many people have gluten allergies and that they can live a normal lifestyle and enjoy the same foods as before. Then she told me to try it for 2 weeks.
So after three days I realize that I feel amazing! I have had energy these past few days that I have not had in about 2 years. My mood is even different, I was so happy when I woke up this morning that I did a little dance for my cat. Hopefully this feeling will last. I'll keep you updated...
