Grateful

Day 79 of living starch-free. I can eat like a horse (and do..lol) without fear of unbearable pain. The only time the pain returns is when I've accidentally ingested something I shouldn't. I learned this the hard way with an over the counter ibuprofen. All in all, things are much improved. My energy levels are still low, as it is difficult to ingest enough carbohydrates on a starch-free diet to obtain the fuel I need to function well, and my weight has not gone back up despite ingesting mass quantities. Yet, I am grateful. It's so amazing how much we take for granted. Seemingly mundane things like the ability to eat or drink are things we don't seem to appreciate until they are taken from us.
