Struggling with Your Gluten Free Diet
Struggling and cheating on your gluten free diet can be a real temptation some days. I know when I go out to eat or to church buffets, I see all those wonderful chocolate desserts, I have to look away. But what can you do. A reader wrote in to Carla Spacher, founder of the Gluten Free Recipe Box, and her is her 8-point answer:
Q. I find myself cheating on the gluten free diet. I have celiac disease and I’ve been on the diet for years. Do you have any advice on how to keep strong?
- Willpower
- Snacks
- Alcohol
- Medication
- Financial
- Children
- Depression
- Education
Although it is an interesting article, I felt she spent more time telling us WHY people cheat on their diet rather than going into ways to keep from cheating.
Number one reason why I don’t cheat on my diet is because I hate being up half the night with stomach and/or intestinal problems, half the next day in and out of the bathroom, and days of foggy brain and thinking! How is that for a good reason not to cheat!!
