How being Gluten Free really isn't that bad...

Lets be real... who likes to be told that you can't eat certain things which you consume on a daily basis?  Well, thats what I was told  four months ago at my doctor visit during the summer. If you ask me what my favorite meal is the first thing that would come out of my mouth would be  pizza and pasta. As a 22 year old college student, I thought my life was over ( being dramatic of course ). I researched a lot about gluten free items after I found out I had  Celiec disease and noticed that certain grocery stores and restaurant  have a whole section of Gluten Free items. 

Some choose to eat this way while others, like myself have too. I do have to agree with my doctor on one thing, I feel a whole lot better , healthier and a wake through out the day since a few months ago. Being Gluten Free does not mean you have to cut everything out of your life I found out. I still can eat pizza and pasta but a more safer and healthier way. 

It took me awhile to realize what were gluten free and restaurants in the OKC area that do have a gluten free menu but here are a few place's I enjoy to eat that work with your food allergy:

• Mcallister Deli- can change out the bread and have any sandwich!
• Hideaway- best pizza ever!
• Teds- tortillas, chips, cheese are my favorite
• Bj's- great pizza , selected gluten free alcoholic beverages!
• Red Robbin- they have glutten free bread and fries!
• Chick Fil A- fries are gluten free and I usually eat a sandwich without  the bun
• Raising Canes - ( call ahead so they can start the chicken fingers!
• Dave and Busters - the seafood is amazing! Little selection though

Hopes this helps someone! Still trying to figure out what alcohol doesn't have gluten in it so I'll keep you posted!
