    3-12: I eat two slices of a three cheese gluten-free pizza. | | | ¥ 3-20/21: still paying for it daily with changing symptoms. Even things I normally eat hurt. Argh I feel like one of those squeeze toys where, when you squeeze the stomach, the eyes pop out. Never again cow dairy. In time, I'll have some goat yogurt but never again ...

    My gut sounds like a calving glacier.

    I have wanted to write about all those battles but it has not been something I wanted to tap back into. However, it's getting to the point where it feels about time. Far away enough to remember it has long passed and soon enough to remember the emotion. Probably some emotion there that I wasn't able to express at that time. (It might also put some perspective...

    People have been so nice & writing IS good for the soul. A poem just popped out of me. It's been years! :)

      p.s. GOOD NIGHT!

    Thank you :)

    This forum group is a godsend. I'm very comfortable here and wish I could speak up for myself better out in the real world. Things come up, people ask things of me that I cannot give because I don't look sick on the outside. Well, I look tons better after eliminating gluten but, you know, I look normal to others regardless. People make assumptions and...

    I'm tired of this.

      It really does drain you. Stay strong and keep fighting!

    I think you're a peach and your story inspires and supports me. Thank you for telling it.

    I suffered that debilitating fatigue. People begin to think you're a life-long hypochondriac but you're right, it doesn't make sense to complain for that long every day. It's eye-opening when you get down the road of healing. We've also experienced familial healing though it's just the two of us. It hurts to read about families/loved ones being unsupportive...

    I'm on adrenal support. It's helping. I'm told it will take a few years to correct. That's because I needed to be on it a long time ago. My husband is on it too but only for a few months. It's helping him as well. It's truly better to catch things early on. Keep on keeping on and REST a lot!

    No doubt anymore about the relevance of gluten-free shampoo.

    Everytime I recover from a glutening, I feel a little better than before.

    I wonder who else is fascinated by another person's weight loss journey whether it be a friend, somebody on TV or writing in a blog. The psychological journey these people go on in order to lose weight impresses me. There are many demons to fight. I loved the show "Ruby". Well, even though I am coming from the opposite end of the spectrum (needing...

    I'm frustrated beyond belief with myself. How long does it take to change behavior brought with me from childhood? I'm a people pleaser. I love to keep the peace. I will do anything for peace. Now, the thing that worked for so many years, people pleasing, is contributing to my illness. "Yes, sure, I can have watermelon." Forget about washing my...

    I don't have the energy for nine stitches so I'd better damn well get to it while it's only one.

    I am blown away by these kids with disabilities; their challenges and their resilience. How inspiring is this documentary on HBO. Very touching and uplifting.

    I'm Sorry

    CaliSparrow posted a blog entry in Blues Boulevard

    I must apologize, in advance, for making such bluesy feelings public. Maybe it's a generational thing but I learned as a child that publicizing anything that looked close to "sour puss" just won't cut it. So I'm sorry for that. Maybe this is the start of becoming a genuine human being. I'm sorry for being apathetic today. I was so active yesterday...

    I believe I was glutened while glutened. This experience has not been fun. I'm going to eat alone for a while. This is insane.

    Why do all my blog posts say "Draft" after I press publish?

    Pain is my teacher. I don't think I'll need to be reminded again! It hurts right now! *Don't forget*

    Can't thank the universe enough for giving me a condition that physically punishes me for being a people pleaser. Thank you for giving me no choice but to change.

  23. CaliSparrow

    Feeding someone gluten and then eating a slice of watermelon without washing your hands is not advised :/ I can't wait for this first year to be over.

  24. CaliSparrow

    The extent to which my life has changed the last six months is nothing less than astounding.

  25. CaliSparrow

    I have so much apathy it's underwhelming.
