To control my weight I eat alot of fresh foods and leans meats. I only occassionally eat processed food...the gluten-free version of food(ie spegetti noodles, breads, cookies ect)

If I do get processed stuff I try to get the low fat variety ie cream cheese.

I make alot of my own foods....can control calories content alittle better that way when making bread!

EXERCISE!!! I hate it but walking with my son everyday is fun!!!

      Seeking Gluten-Free Advice for My Trip to South Korea!

      By CelestialScribe · Posted

      Welcome to the forum. You are lucky because in Korean food, many classic meals such as bibimbap without sauce, barbecue meats and some kinds of soups generally do not have gluten. But it is a good idea to confirm with the restaurant workers for safety reasons. Regarding certain locations, I enjoy going to places such as Plant in Seoul and Sprout in Busan. Moreover, using applications like HappyCow or TripAdvisor can assist you to discover additional choices in the regions you plan to visit. One big tip: it is good to know some important Korean sentences, for example 'I cannot eat gluten' (geulluteuneul meogeul su eopseoyo)  or 'Does this have gluten?' (igeoe neun geulluteuni deureo innayo?) because they can be very helpful. If you are considering getting a local guide, I'd suggest this one https://gowithguide.com/korea They were very helpful when I needed to find places with gluten-free food options because they provide tours tailored to your preferences. Good luck with your travels! 🍻

      Finding out I’m coeliac whilst pregnant

      It is concerning.  Unfortunately a lot of doctors don’t know a lot about celiac disease, even some gastroenterologists.  Here is an article for you: Celiac disease and miscarriage I hope you have a successful pregnancy and a healthy baby!

      Undiagnosed (and thus untreated) celiac disease is associated with a higher chance of miscarriage. The downside of continuing to eat gluten now is increased chance of miscarriage. The downside of stopping gluten now and having to restart later to get a clear, official diagnosis is that you might have worse symptoms eating gluten after being gluten free, but it wouldn’t affect your baby. I know which one I would choose!

      1540 TTG Results... Help!

      By cristiana · Posted

      @Blanco - you are most welcome, and I am glad to hear you have made your glutinous bucket list!  Just before my biopsy, after the shed loads of Weetabix and Penguins I had eaten, I had a terrible tight headache across my forehead, something I'd suffered from a child and had just thought was a headache at the time. Maybe my body was trying to tell me something, even back then?  But I know what you mean about black forest gateaux - I've never really liked McDonalds, Burger King or KFC but now wish I could eat all that stuff when my family are tucking into theirs!   On the plus side, you may have seen, in the big supermarkets, particularly Tesco's, the gluten free aisle is ever expanding.  In one of our local branches now it pretty much occupies a whole aisle.   You might have to shop around, but it is amazing what you can find.  Ginster's make their own gluten-free pasties now, for example.  I just need a senior executive from McVities to read this thread because once Penguins are gluten-free, I shall be happy! As for prescriptions, this link should help you find out what you are entitled to - yes, NHS lottery is absolutely how it is! I have personally never bothered with prescriptions, but some do.  I think perhaps what you could do is buy gluten-free for a month, cost it, then see if it's worth your while compared with what the NHS can offer.  With some bread loaves costing £3.50 a shot, it might be worth it? By the way - do keep us posted if you can, we'd love to know if your gastroenterologist insists upon an endoscopy.
