It was tough, no doubt, and I definitely wanted to forgo the challenge, if just for a few hours, but as I mentioned before it is a 60 day challenge so 60 days it will be. What was nice though, is that there are a lot of Asian dishes that are naturally gluten and dairy free. While looking for something Korean to make, since South Korea is the host country, the first two recipes I found of Korean beef and potatoes were naturally gluten and dairy free. That was nice, I did not have to make any substitutions or have to make any extensive searches. That made it a lot easier. For those of you thinking about going gluten and dairy free Asian cuisine just might become your favorite food. In the hectic nature of having friends over I did not get a chance to take pictures of what I made but the recipes are below.
Even though I have 40 days behind me now I am still struggling with wanting my normal food and with my impulse food buying. Part of the struggle is something that is common to all mankind – if I am denied something then that is the very thing I want. If I am told I cannot have gluten then I long for breads, or if I cannot have dairy then I desire ice cream. It is the struggle to have what you are told you cannot. The impulse buying, however, is something of a larger issue that is going to take more than 60 days to overcome. With time and patience though, it is possible to overcome it all.
That is where I am at day 40. What about you? How are you doing with your challenge(s)? Are you pursuing any? Still thinking about starting one? Still have no idea what to do? As I have said before and will say many times more, it is never too late to start, you simply have to just get going, so let’s get to it.
Attempt it. Chance it. Try it.
