Cancun vacation

Standard

I leave Saturday for Cancun! I’m very excited! I am going with my Aunt Coleen for a full week!

Even though I’m excited and looking forward to a vacation, I’m kind of nervous because I want to try to stick with my gluten free diet. I’ve found that now I’ve been off gluten, my system reacts more violently when I do eat something with gluten. Last Friday, there were kolaches at the office. Nearly every Friday I purchase kolaches for the office. It hasn’t been too bad because a few Fridays we had bagels, which I avoid like the plague because I know how horrible I’ll feel afterwards. But this last Friday we had kolaches. Those round, dough filled balls of wonderfulness tempted me too much and I ate one! I know, I know…what was I thinking?! The entire afternoon my stomach churned and I had sharp shooting pains in my abdomen. Not fun. This reaction was one of the worst I’ve ever had. I think it must be reacting more noticeably since I’ve been gluten free. I’m not sure. This brings me back to my trepidation about eating in Cancun.

I’ve already planned to take a cereal and Almond Milk since we’ll have a kitchenette at the resort. I also purchased some almonds and cashews last night.

I’ll update you once I get back with how it goes!
