From Crappy to Happy: The Naked Truth About Living with Celiac Disease
So many in the celiac community continue to struggle, even years after they've been diagnosed. They get their diagnosis and the only instructions they receive from their doctor is "Don't eat gluten" (thanks Doc). So they walk out of the doctor's office a bit terrified of their new life in front of them, but feeling a bit relieved that "Hey...all I need to do is give up gluten and I'll be fine."
But dang...here I am, 8 years after my diagnosis, and all I can say is that's just not the way it is. There is SO MUCH more to our disease than simply living gluten-free. This books explains it all and tells the TRUTH about our disease and how to conquer it.
As a leading voice in the celiac community, a strong celiac advocate and a blogger with over 5 million visitors, 650 articles and 35,000 comments, this book is essentially my journey through the ups and downs of this pain-in-the-butt disease. It's a voice that says "Hey, you know what...celiac really bites...here's all the crap we have to deal with...let's share our stories...find some sanity...get healthy...and make the journey together." Look at it almost as a diary of my fun life with celiac disease and I assure you my experiences and those of the celiac community will help you tremendously.
In this book, I provide specific guidance for those newly diagnosed and who are pretty much scared s***less...cause we've all been there. I explain how eating "gluten-free" is not enough for our bodies to heal. I talk about the pitfalls and how-to's of eating outside the comfort of your own home...and which spots to avoid even though they claim to be "gluten-free". I talk about how having the right attitude is an absolute necessity when dealing with celiac. I delve into how celiac disease can affect your relationships and how to navigate the sticky situations. And yeah...I even throw some celebrity juice in there, the good and bad (and boy has there been bad.)
To sum it up, I'm someone who will always give you the naked truth about living with celiac disease. I didn't find freedom, a better life or any of that other crap when I got diagnosed. With all due respect to Hunter S. Thompson, I found fear and loathing of an unknown world. But if I can share my wisdom, tell my stories and make the transition easier on you, I've done my job.
Now just sit back, get cozy, grab a gluten-free drink and we'll take this crazy ride together. Trust me...you don't want to go it alone.
