Harder than I thought.

I decided Tuesday November 15th, that I would just do it, just go gluten free. I know it is pretty easy from an advanced gluten free expert and so I thought by reading blogs and such, "How hard could it be". The emotional and physical aspects have been rough. Yesterday I got pretty depressed, tired, a headache and my bones ached. I couldn't figure out why. After looking into "The Bible"...AKA Internet, I found that there are withdrawal symptoms. Ahah! This must be it. This morning I have been weak, dizzy, anxious, slightly depressed and my eyes hurt. Weird how the body reacts to such things. I hope it doesn't last long and I can be strong through all this. I really wan to get feeling better.

I have been kinda feeling sorry for myself with all this gluten free talk. Just thinking about how Thanksgiving and Xmas will go over. Either having to bring my own food or not eating. I don't want to tell my poor Grandma cause I don't want her to feel bad, but I feel she will feel bad if I don't eat her dinner. Will she feel bad if I bring my own food? I hate thinking about it, but know I will have to face it like a woman. I don't want my family to feel like I am being difficult or prissy. I feel they wont understand that I am just looking out for my health. I feel its something I have to do, to see if this will make me feel like me again or at least feel alive.
