  1. Absolutely and it makes it much harder to eat out. I have surprisingly eaten out here and there safely, but I recently took recommendations from younger celiacs (who I later found out cheat) and I got sick. We just moved to a new area and my old local celiac group was amazing. There’s also gluten sensitive people who still eat some gluten as well, and it c...
  2. It took me so long to be diagnosed I never had a cheating period, but I do know I used to eat plenty of gluten and I baked constantly. I carry a genetic variant for the disease.
