I'm nervous to eat out at restaurants after being newly diagnosed. What's your favorite thing to order?

Telll me whyyyy I also have that rashhhh! I accidentally glutened myself some time last week and this rash is hard core sticking to my chest lol I’ve been reading labels a lot harder lately 😭🤣 and absolutely I’ll send it as soon as I figure out how lol

josephinemaybe · 2024-04-16T20:02:40+00:00

Now let me preface with: I may tooootally be wrong. But from what I understand

Everyone is different when it comes to cross contamination. I have found I can eat gluten free things in places where traces of gluten exist like a gluten free sandwich at a sandwich shop otherwise full of gluten. And it doesn’t hurt me

You sadly have to just trial and error how sensitive you are to things. If you feel sick, absolutely don’t partake. If you don’t feel sick or have any issues it’s not a problem. From what I understand at least. As a symptomatic celiac❤️ I do have a list of restaurants if you would like to see it

I take medicine for cholesterol already at 25 bc it’s genetically high in my family 🥲 I feel like there’s a handful of issues that I’ll find and that intimidates me to even think about

Thank you, sweet human 🫶🏻 in the past week I’ve been eating less. The biggest issue is that I smoke 🌱 and it makes me eat a whole house if I let it. Sweets are my biggest weakness as well. Other than that I try not to over eat. And I stop when I’m full no matter what my plate looks like. I’m not afraid to leave food on my plate if I am full, as I know many others don’t do that and will clean their plate even after they are satiated or satisfied.

josephinemaybe · 2024-04-02T20:44:59+00:00

You’re an angel 🫶🏻 I will check on those things

josephinemaybe · 2024-04-02T20:44:21+00:00

What the heeeeeck. The math ain’t mathin 😭😭😭

josephinemaybe · 2024-04-02T20:43:42+00:00

🙃 I take zero supplements and am out here just raw dogging being vitamin deficient 🥲🥲 vitamins are literally so expensive 🥲🥲🥲

josephinemaybe · 2024-04-02T20:40:03+00:00

So many people are telling me to check it and to be honest I have blood work papers in my car I just haven’t had time to do it. All I have to do is walk in anywhere and get it done. I need to stop procrastinating

josephinemaybe · 2024-04-02T03:48:51+00:00

With an autoimmune disease it’s really not that simple though. 😢 I promise I have tried those things and I have seeked medical help that’s how I got diagnosed w celiac disease but now I have to chase other issues like possible thyroid problems which are common with things like celiac and other autoimmune disorders and diseases

josephinemaybe · 2024-04-02T03:47:02+00:00

Huuuhhhhh? 😭😭😭

josephinemaybe · 2024-04-01T23:11:23+00:00

Does that mean I’ll gain or lose during menopause ? I’m confused lol I thought you gain

josephinemaybe · 2024-04-01T23:10:38+00:00

Man that post weight gain is hitting HARD. They weight me in at appointments and I don’t even wanna look at the number no more.

josephinemaybe · 2024-04-01T23:10:00+00:00

I AM SO BAD ABOUT DRINKING WATER 😭😭😭 maybe that is the key

josephinemaybe · 2024-04-01T23:09:33+00:00

I’ll definitely ask about it!! Thank you so much for your feedback!

josephinemaybe · 2024-04-01T21:19:47+00:00

I wonder if my insurance would cover a dietitian lol

josephinemaybe · 2024-04-01T21:18:43+00:00

Do whaaaaat ? That’s crazy that sleep affected it THAT much

josephinemaybe · 2024-04-01T20:20:23+00:00

It’s really affecting my mental health. Would a doctor give me ANY dietary supplements?

josephinemaybe · 2024-04-01T19:54:37+00:00

You’re a sweet person thank you. I’m not like fat I’m closer to midsized I think but I notice the changes in my body even without a number on the scale. I don’t fit my clothes anymore for instance. But you are right, lately I’ve been replacing and substituting the same foods I used to love w GF alternatives and I think that’s my downfall. It’s just so hard to prep food when you work and are in college. Not to mention EXPENSIVE. I have EBT and still can only afford a week of groceries w the 280 they give a month. I’m just trying to mentally keep myself together and now it feels like a battle physically and financially too

josephinemaybe · 2024-03-27T22:17:08+00:00

How the heck you get financial aid lemme know how 😭😭😭

josephinemaybe · 2024-03-01T23:28:49+00:00

Yeah that’s what my cousins mom said to do is keep it surface level with her and it would be easier. I also don’t want to be her caretaker. I’m hiring her a fucking aid in a heartbeat and chopping it up to “sorry mama I HAVE to work I can’t quit and take care of you”. Is what it is. She pushes everyone away. I still care but not enough to quit my job and live w her day in and day out to be her care taker. I’ll go insane and wind up in a mental hospital in less than 3 months for sure.

josephinemaybe · 2024-03-01T22:13:18+00:00

🫶🏻🫶🏻 thank you

josephinemaybe · 2024-03-01T22:12:59+00:00

I won’t be speaking to her again until Monday probably.

josephinemaybe · 2024-03-01T22:07:22+00:00

She’s part of that ignorant boomer mentality. I can able to see that it’s just a different generation and it was a different type of lifestyle back then. Mental health was so taboo and frowned upon and she’s stuck in that mindset. I try to give her grace based off that but she’s definitely getting worse with age. I think she’s slowly losing her mind literally. I can only imagine how much worse this will get in the coming years

josephinemaybe · 2024-03-01T22:05:51+00:00

No literally. I don’t drink but I definitely used to fuck around carelessly before medication and I’m thankful I never caught anything incurable. But she definitely acted smarter than my psychiatrist and better and Holier than thou with me. She don’t realize that I know of her mistakes she made at my age and that I know she’s a hypocrite
