Learn to live (and strive) with celiac disease.Are you frustrated that your body has not completely healed yet? You WILL heal. Are you struggling with the fact that you can never eat gluten again? You WILL come to terms with it. Do you dread going out to eat because of fear? You WILL enjoy meals out again. Do you feel like your life is consumed by this disease? You WILL learn to live with it. They say that life is not about what happens to you, but how you react to what happens to you. That, to me, is the key to adjusting to this insidious disease. You can let it beat you or you can fight it back. This book is all about taking the fight to celiac disease. And winning the battle.So many in the celiac community continue to struggle (unnecessarily) after their diagnosis. They get their celiac diagnosis and the only instructions they receive from their doctor is "Don't eat gluten" (thanks Doc). So they walk out of the doctor's office a bit terrified of the new life in front of them, but feeling a bit relieved that "Hey...all I need to do is give up gluten and I'll be fine."But dang...here I am, 8 years after my diagnosis, and all I can say is that's just not the way it is. There is SO MUCH more to celiac disease than simply eating gluten-free. There is so much more we need to do to make sure we heal our body, our mind and our soul. This books explains it all.In this book, I provide specific guidance for those newly diagnosed and who are pretty much scared s***less...cause we've all been there. I explain how eating "gluten-free" is not enough for our bodies to heal. I talk about the pitfalls and how-to's of eating outside the comfort of your own home...and which spots to avoid even though they claim to be "gluten-free". I talk about how having the right attitude is an absolute necessity when dealing with celiac. I delve into how celiac disease can affect your relationships and how to navigate the sticky situations. And yeah...I even throw some celebrity juice in there, the good and bad (and boy has there been bad.)Now just sit back, get cozy, grab a gluten-free drink and we'll take this crazy ride together. Trust me...you don't want to go it alone.
