Gluten free and the end of the summer

I went gluten-free two weeks ago. I wanted to know if gluten was the cause of my stomach problems so going gluten-free was the way to find out that didn’t mean a doctor visit and shelling out lots of money.

This weekend I will be eating gluten to see if it makes me feel sick and if it does, I will go back to gluten-free and if it doesn’t, I may be forced to eliminate dairy from my diet and see if that helps.

This week we are in Memphis to visit with family before going back to school next week. Monday we stayed with my parents and (briefly) saw my brother and his family. Tuesday we drove to Memphis and we will be here until Saturday. I haven’t been online much except to check my e-mail on my iPod so if you have noticed my disappearance, that is why. I haven’t slacked on my workouts either, I’ve been keeping with my schedule for the half marathon so that makes me happy. Saturday morning I am set to do 6 miles so we’ll see how it goes and if I’m dead for the ride back to the ‘boro. :)

I think this week is going by way too fast and it disappoints me that I am not enjoying it more seeing as how it’s my last week of freedom until, basically, December. I’m excited and nervous for the new semester, but mainly excited because I feel like I will finally be on my path to becoming a nurse again. I am not looking forward to burying myself in the books again, but hopefully this time around will be a tad easier and my schedule is a less busy so I’ll have more of a balance between studying and fun time. It will probably also help that we got rid of my biggest distraction: television. Ahem.

So, here is to a new chapter of our lives: Gray’s senior senior senior year and more nursing school.

    We discovered almond milk and have pretty much given up dairy just because it is SO DARN GOOD. Have you seen "Food, Inc.?" It will help you give up pretty much all food :)

    @Nicole, I will definitely have to try that out, I've heard such great things about it… and I have been meaning to watch Food, Inc. but never seem to have the time… must make it happen soon.
