Here's the deal:
You're worried that you're never gonna get rid of your stomach pain and bloating.
You think it's from gluten - but you're not 100% sure.
And honestly, it feels like it's been going on FOREVER.
It's so frustrating because tomorrow you're gonna wake up totally fine.
But by the end of day, you're gonna be bloated, your pants will be too tight and you're gonna feel like sh*t.
You are SO TIRED tired of doctor appointments and tests that go on and on - taking precious time away from everything else you have to do - and getting you nowhere.
And when you finally get a chance to do dinner and drinks with the girls, you're just sitting in that booth, starting at the menu, trying to figure out what you can eat that won't TOTALLY wreck your day tomorrow.
On top of it all, you basically feel alone because you don't know anyone else with this problem.
But just imagine.
What if you could:
- Just go about your day feeling NORMAL - no stomach pain, bloating, burping and nausea
- Finally figure out what is going on with you and food (is it gluten?!) and get on with life
- Be able to order at a restaurant, confidently
- And feel in control of your eating
Sound good? Let's do it!

My Journey to Gluten-Free
I didn't always eat gluten-free.
For years, I ate bowls of cereal, pasta galore, regular bread, buns, etc. And I was fine.
Until I wasn't.
It started with burping.
Which I thought was so strange (and not to mention embarrassing.) Like I would burp as if I just downed some carbonated water (which I hadn't) but I didn't really give it much thought other than, "weird, why I am burping so much?"
From Burping to Bloating
After about a year or so of this, I started to notice that I would get bloated, as well as the burping continued.
After years of painful bloating and reflux with daily debilitating nausea, I was so fed up.
I finally decided to look into the stomach issues that I was living with for so long.
The breaking point wasn’t the phone call from the surgeon giving me my results from my gastroscopy and biopsy (inflammation of the stomach lining likely caused by non-celiac gluten sensitivity.)
For me, what hit home was when my hubby said:
“I can’t remember a time when your stomach WASN’T bothering you.”
Yikes.
That was my wake up call.
I mean, I knew it was bad - I was the one doubled over in bed while my boys and Jason rode bikes to the park - painful in more ways than one.
I hated missing out on doing things with them and I couldn't figure out what was going on with my stomach.
And I'm a dietitian for crying out loud!
So if you're having bloating or nausea too and you suspect you have gluten intolerance, you know what I'm talking about.
Shifting to a gluten-free life may seem daunting.
And you wouldn’t believe the transformation I achieved by following a gluten-free diet.
With my super easy gluten-friendly recipes that made my life with non-celiac gluten sensitivity actually liveable.
After finally cutting out gluten (for good this time), I haven't had one painful episode of bloating or nausea.
And the best part?
I haven't missed out on anything with my hubby and kids♥️
Now my focus of this blog is to share easy and gluten-free recipes, tips and tricks for busy moms with gluten intolerance.
When I'm not working, blogging, or thinking about food, I'll do other stuff!
In the summer, I'll be in our backyard in the pool with my kids and hubby.
In the winter, we'll be in a hockey arena or skiing down some slopes together.
If you also have painful bloating and burping and are fed up with how many things you’ve missed out on because you didn’t feel like moving, let’s end that now.
I know that living a life that's gluten-friendly for busy moms with gluten intolerance can be difficult.
That's why I help you slowly change your habits so that you can improve your health and live a better, gluten-free life.
And I'm right here with you.
So take back your life and the joy you’ve been missing out on!
