- The last in a three part series about my experience with celiac disease to wrap up Celiac Awareness Month!
Today, I talk about how surprisingly difficult it was to go gluten-free and get really emotional about pooping.

It’s not easy to change xx
I’m good at reading the ingredients list xx
We did a massive shop gluten free stuff and kitchen bits xx
It’s very hard to be gluten free, especially eating out, they don’t get the cross contamination at all. 🤔 Reading ingredients is a pain, they make the print so small often on coloured shinning labels. 🤷♀️ Being celiac is a pain, and yes gluten is in almost everything. Good idea making the kitchen, pantry GF I’ve done the same. Thank you.
Guernsey restaurants are very good with gluten free xxx
I got a new chopping board and wooden spoons and a new toaster xx
Thanks for sharing your experience. It helps because I have similar symptoms. I have been diagnosed almost 2 years and still struggling. I am trying so hard to gain weight and like it's not happening.
I'm so sorry to hear that you're still struggling. It can definitely take a long time to start to feel like you're getting better and that in itself is so frustrating! It took a long time for me too, so I hope it helps to know you're not alone 💜
Even mixed nuts contain traces. I was getting a bloated feeling after just a serving and it took me a couple weeks of it to look at the ingredient list.
THIS! I feel like 95% of the time when I look at the ingredients on nuts it says "may contain wheat" and I'm just like whyyyyyyyyy did you have to ruin these cashews for me.
Yes, it not worth the risk. But I love them, we miss out on so much. 😞
Dont forget to check your Salt n pepper, i just spent 9months under a depressive cloud due to Peppercorns!
🤯omg!! thanks for sharing this - that's insane!! Hope you're feeling better now!
My home is gluten free xxx
Thank you so much for sharing your experiences in this 3 part series. I was recently diagnosed coeliac and everything you’re saying I’m like ‘YES, YES YES, EXACTLY THAT!’. It’s a difficult journey but we’ve got this 👍👍👍
No problem! It always feels good to know you're not the only one. I'm glad you've been diagnosed and you can start to get better now. 😊
Thank you for sharing your experience. It’s definitely helpful. I’m currently trying to figure out what is wrong with health issues. My dna tested for higher risk celiacs
So glad to hear it's helpful for you!! I hope you get to the bottom of your health issues soon.
Why do things have gluten in them xx
Thank you soooooo much for your advises! Gonna go do a deep clean in the kitchen right now)
Wow, thank you so much for watching (and commenting on) all these videos! I'm so happy they were helpful to you. :)
@@mirandabraham27 Very helpful) I thought that cross contamination was a myth, but now gonna be super cautious 😷 Wish you great health ❤️
Did you experience sibo at all?
I didn't! Thankfully. But I hear that it's not uncommon to struggle with sibo in addition to celiac.
I miss kfc xxx
Throw the pizza in the over, on MAX
Regarding the wooden spoon: maybe sometimes you feel especially crappy because it's normal that sometimes people feel crappy, like having a bad day at work, or disappointed at something or someone irritated you. I don't think people with Celiac should be too extreme, like blame every little annoyance on POSSIBLE micro traces of Gluten on a wooden spoon.
You may be right. I definitely get anxious over the potential for cross-contamination. I'm also realizing how closely linked my gut health is to my mental/emotional state. The gut-brain connection is a real thing! Although I think I'm finally starting to get better at recognizing the difference between true cross-contamination vs. an upset stomach. For me, cross-contamination seems to always come with debilitating fatigue - almost like the flu. Knowing that has helped me to relax and not pick apart my symptoms.
While that IS true, Celiac is autoimmune and even the smallest bit of gluten can trigger a systemic effect, and the antibodies of such can literally be measured by doctors so they will know whether youre still GF or not, and wooden spoons, toasters, and nonstick pans are common culprits. Sorry Ill trust the people who went to school for decades for this and are doctors.
