Confused 19 year old trying to go GF

My mother, 3 brothers, sister and I all got diagnosed together after my brother was diagnosed. Even though i had the facts (and symptoms) in front of me, i was a skeptic. I thought it was a bunch of health-nut mumbo jumbo and refused to give up gluten. I'd eat some of my mom's GF dishes but ultimately stuck to my junk-food guns, stubbornly ignoring my pain. I now live on my own, so my mom's GF foods are no where in sight. But after living with this pain for so long, and doing some research, i realized i'm fed up & i'm just going to get more unhealthy if i dont eliminate this from my life. My problem is: A) breaking my junk food addiction & B) finding/affording gluten free products.
I heard Walmart has a GF section that's not overly pricey, but my roommates and I share a grocery bill, and to them if i buy GF food that they wont eat, im wasting money that could be used on "normal food"
I guess what im looking for is some support & advice.
