Gluten free for over a year now and so glad I made the decision, as I found additional benefits (aside from the GI improvement, I have less headaches, clearer skin, less fatigue - and best of all I don't go to bed looking 6 months pregnant anymore!) I am doing low dairy now, as well, because while the gluten helped I still have more bowel movements per day than I'd like.
Pinterest is a great place to find great recipes And it's really not hard to eliminate gluten once you realize how great you feel. It took me a few months to see a difference but I'm glad I stuck with it. Lots of food stores carried plenty of options, there are dedicated bakeries popping up, etc. My only big sacrifice is good sandwich/hoagie rolls.
