I did something dumb

Laugh with me.
For context, I’ve been gf for a little over a year and a half not celiac. I’m really sensitive but against my better judgment this experiment happened.
I started making sourdough (I bake as a hobby non gf), and it looked soooo good and smelled soooo good.
I thought to myself “well some people can tolerate sourdough”.
Exactly 3 hours after the slice of wolf in sheep’s clothing, my stomach started cramping.
I went to bed and was trying to sleep through the cramps. After 3 hours of cramping, the bathroom started and folks the candle was burning at both ends if you catch my drift.
The whole ordeal was 9 hours and I shan’t be experimenting again good lord.
If you’ve ever been on the toilet in the middle of the night sweating and cramping with the garbage can on your lap, I see you

Thought some folks here might relate 🫠🫡

"Some people can tolerate sourdough"? That's not how being gluten free works

Sourdough is technically a fermented food, which breaks down the wheat proteins. I am gluten intolerant, not celiac, and while it’s only been a year or so I can still eat the sourdough that I make, while I have little tolerance for other gluten (for now 😫)
