Oh wow, I dated A LOT a few years ago while being gluten free, and ate out as well. I was always nervous to tell people but if they accepted it without much hoopla, I pretty much knew they were a good guy. I also had to explain I couldn't kiss them if they had eaten gluten but it always went over well As far as dealing with restaurants go, I'd...

ARCHIVED Gluten Testing Services?
Shell156 replied to Hellbender's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Hey Dan, I replied to your other topic as well and gave a suggestion for a multi that works well for me! I am extremely sensitive to gluten and react to lots that doesn't seem to bother other celiacs. For example a a restaurant in Vancouver that caters to lots of celiacs made me really sick. They say served tons of celiacs without issue (including... -

Shell156 replied to Rhobhan's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications

ARCHIVED Veggie Burger Suggestions?
Shell156 posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Do you know what I miss so much at summer BBQs? Veggie burgers. I don't mean the ones that taste like fake meat, I mean those ones that are made from grains, beans or legumes, maybe some cheese. Does anyone have any suggestions? I'm quite sensitive, so certified gluten free is best, but I'd be happy to research non-certified suggestions as well. -
ARCHIVED What Is Super Sensitive?
Shell156 replied to jasonandsarah's topic in Super Sensitive People
Do you use personal care products that your daughter does not use? While my blood tests were okay while I used regular personal care products, I still felt terrible. My blood tests were in the okay zone (14… should be >20) I realized at some point I was reacting to my personal care products. I switched over to certified gluten free products a... -
I should mention that I wrote the company but I never heard back. Oh, Thailand !

I tried them both! No reaction, yay! But the Durian was hard to get down ;-)

Hi everyone! Does anyone know any brands (preferably readily available) to which they do not react? I am unfortunately very, very sensitive to trace amounts of gluten and its derivatives, including distilled liquors and "gluten removed" products. Does anyone know of a certified gluten free brand?

ARCHIVED I Can't Stop Losing Weight...
Shell156 replied to mmalaski's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Hi there! You sound like me a little after I went gluten free. The weight loss started to worry me when I weighed less than I did at 13!!! Crazy, huh? The thing is, when my BMI was about 19, the weightless just stopped. Maybe this is what a healthy weight is for me? I didn't look particularly overweight before, but I did want to lose weight. After... -
Hi there! Has anyone ever had a problem with frozen fruit? I haven't , but I have been buying the expensive, organic, packaged in Canada fruit. In my store, there are mangoes and durian packaged in the Philippines and Thailand, respectively. I really want to try this fruit but I'm nervous. Has anyone ever had a gluten reaction to frozen fruit?

ARCHIVED Traveling To Japan With Celiac Child: Restaurants & Grocery Tips?
Shell156 replied to subscribeg's topic in Traveling with Celiac Disease
I love Japan! I lived there for a few years before I knew I had celiac disease but I knew I was allergic to wheat. My first night there, I went into a convienience store and a lovely person taught me the kanji for wheat and its pronunciation: ko mugi ko. Knowing this helped me a lot. I can't comment in restaurants there but I will tell you that Japanese... -
ARCHIVED Are You Amazing At Explaining Cross-Contamination? Help Me Be Lovely And Thoughtful?
Shell156 replied to Shell156's topic in Super Sensitive People
Hi everyone! Well… it was awesome! Everyone was so kind and thoughtful and it went well. I think I got mildly glutened once, but I think it's because we had to buy some unfamiliar brands (all labeled gluten free… not all certified). One mild glutening in 2 weeks is pretty par for the course for me, as I am extremely sensitive and may have an allergy rat... -
I've never gotten sick from just hugging someone, but I have gotten sick from hugging someone and getting their hair in my mouth! I guess I hug a lot and I wouldn't have thought anything of it but after a few times I was researching and hair products have terrible amounts of gluten in them. Boo. I am super super sensitive. Most people would never have to...
