Hi all... My name is Katie and I discovered I was gluten intolerant in October 2011. Since then, I have been on a quest to figure out how I can still be a "foodie" without gluten. For those of you who are GF, you know that it's like re-learning how you think about food. Many of my friends thought (and maybe still think) I was crazy, but I have never felt better. I found blogs to be a great source of information and I was inspired by the creativity of those blogging about being gluten-free.
How did I get here? In May, I graduated from grad school which was the greatest achievement of my life. For three years, I was working full-time and going to school part-time. My free time was spent doing homework and trying to keep my social life afloat. As graduation came closer, I realized that I had put my interests and passions on the back burner. So on the eve of my 26th birthday, I made a leap list of "30 things to do by 30" to shift my focus back towards my non-professional life. One item on the list.... Start a blog about being gluten-free. So here I am. Checking another thing off my list.
I currently live in New York City and have learned to navigate myself around the supermarket, restaurants, and my seamless web (website for online take-out orders) account and have learned a lot. On GFreestyle, I'm sharing my experience of living gluten-free with others in hopes that it helps others the way that other blogs (especially those I have linked on here) have helped me.
