Food is powerful!<br /><br />Congratulations on your excellent choices. I am completely on the same page as you- after the ugly realities of both the disease and the treatments, I became both open-minded and very willing to do anything to not have to feel that way again!<br /><br />Best wishes for continued improvement, and getting off those steroids as you improve!<br /><3<br />CarlaCarla Ulbrich, The Singing Patienthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15102866927457990437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3528324373828710021.post-1975330776701731492012-02-25T11:23:50.452-05:002012-02-25T11:23:50.452-05:00Excellent post.

I also avoid caffeine, soda, fast food, as much processed foods as possible and am semi-vegetarian. People think I went bonkers! I think that my autoimmune illness has devastated my life and I will do anything to make it better.<br /><br />I am finding it a learning process and am truly enjoying eating real food again. I had to go on massive doses of oral and IV steroids right when I started this new way of eating (for neurological issues) and I do not think it is a coincidence that I have lost 7 lbs. instead of gaining 20.<br /><br />I do struggle with eating out as well. thank you for the tips. I have found Red Robin and Pizzeria Uno's to be VERY flexible and with a pretty good gluten/dairy free menu, esp. for when I am craving some meat.Christine https://www.blogger.com/profile/09892346661528968954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3528324373828710021.post-20294625911997965202012-02-24T18:02:20.142-05:002012-02-24T18:02:20.142-05:00hi Fatat! yes I do write about gluten-free dairy-f...hi Fatat! yes I do write about gluten-free dairy-free in my book. abotu 1/3 of the book is on dietary stuff. come back and tell me how your visit to Moe's was! :)<br />(remember you can't get the edible bowl- that's wheat.

I'm thinking of buying it for my friend.Fatcathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10687367589610368444noreply@blogger.com
