Allergy Shiners...

More often than not, folks that have undiagnosed/untreated food allergies (well, any kind of allergy really), will have what they call "Allergy Shiners". These are the dark circles under a person's eyes that make it look like they either haven't slept in weeks, or got hit in the face.

I've had dark circles under my eyes for so long, I used to get tired of people asking if I was tired or if I'd gotten enough sleep.

Well, I was tired, but not from lack of sleep usually (except when the boys were little!).

Then today, I went upstairs to put my make-up on for work, and noticed that the area under my eyes had this odd, flesh toned color to it.

I decided to forego the make-up today ;). Which, I know, will make my make-up phobic husband quite happy (which, according to him, most men actually don't like make-up. Weird, right? Wonder why women have been using it for soooo many years...).

I've been gluten free about 2 full months now, with very few accidental glutenings. I can't wait to see what happens in the next 2 months - or the next year even!
