Nervous For My Vacation

[nursenation2]

So I am going on vacation on Saturday. And I know that it could be scarier than where I am heading but this is the first time away from home since having to go super strict. I used to be able to not react to a shared kitchen and go eat out fairly easy (as easy as it is for any of us I guess). Now I have become so sensitive. I am off to MT to my husbands family's ranch. No grocery store for 70 miles and even then I doubt I can find anything gluten free. So I am bringing a huge box of food and a toaster. But I am just so nervous about getting sick or forgetting something or being a pain in the butt to our family. I truly adore them, they understand and are willing to cook gluten free while I am there. But I am still on antibiotics for SIBO because I got really sick from the first round and had to restart on a new antibiotic. I am sure I am just being silly. But sometimes I just wish I didn't have to worry about food so much, it starts to be your life and there's just so much more to life than food.

I am also very sensative too, rarely eat gluten-free foods. I have resorted to a veggie and meat diet for the most part so if I think vegetarian with a little meat it helps me realize I do have lots of options. I can eat and eat and eat veggies until they come out my ears. I do understand what you are saying. I have been to socials and out with groups where there seriously was nothing I could eat but that's okay. Focus on what you can have, make the 70 mile trip to get groceries and stock up on what you can eat, or make some there aware of your needs before you get there. I wish you the best.
