Loading ...We all start out complaining about what we can no longer eat, but we have to get through that initial shock. I’ve come up with the “Never-Always Rule.”
“NEVER focus on the foods you can no longer eat. ALWAYS focus on what you CAN eat!”
This is so important! Don’t ever forget this. This may be hard, but don’t worry, we can get through this together. Whenever my bad side tries to take over and get me all down and gloomy about the foods I can’t eat, I like to say, “Gosh, at least I can eat…” and I fill in the blank with something I CAN eat. For example, I’d whine, “I can’t have cake anymore!” And then I’d come back and say, “But hey, at least I can still eat french fries or peanut butter!” And then I start thinking about eating french fries and how much I love them. So that’s all you’ve got to do. Think of your favorite Gluten-free food, and think of that next time you’re down about certain other foods! You’ll be through it in no time.
