Keep in mind that I don't have to avoid gluten. My daughter does. I am diabetic, have food allergies and other health issues. So I do have to watch what I eat.

Breakfast: Small bowl of cereal (dry) and some cubes of cheddar cheese.

Snack: Part of a bag of popcorn and part of an order of nachos from Target snack bar.

Lunch: Nothing.

Dinner: Part of an Amy's pizza with added cheese and seasoning. Also raw baby carrots.

I will have a snack before bed. Most likely it will be apple slices with peanut butter.

I realize that my diet sounds light on the fruit and veggies. But I do have gastroparesis. That's delayed stomach emptying. So I have to be careful not to eat too much of this stuff (among other things) or it comes right back up. TMI. Sorry.

I would prefer to eat a vegetarian diet, but tend to go anemic if I don't. Because I am allergic to eggs, those are out. Have outgrown my dairy allergy so am allowed to eat it only twice a week for fear that the allergy could come back if I eat it too much. So I do eat meat a couple of times a week but also rely on beans and nuts for most of my protein.

Today I ate:

Breakfast: Scrambled egg, Ore-Ida hash browns, 2 slices Oscar Meyer Center Cut bacon

Lunch: Trader Joe's rice pasta mac & cheese with tuna, strawberry rhubarb crisp with vanilla ice cream

Dinner: Grilled steak with A-1 Steak Sauce, boiled baby potatoes with olive oil and salt, grilled asparagus, red wine, more strawberry crisp for dessert

Kind of a HIGH CALORIE day, but it was Father's Day so I did a lot of cooking for my husband.

Yesterday

Breakfast: coffee, huevos rancheros with corn tortillas

Lunch: Three-bean salad and some chopped liver from the local deli I bought the other night, corn chips

Dinner: Burger with carmelized onions, rice, steamed broccoli, handful of radishes

Today:

Weekend laziness set in so I didn't eat a proper breakfast. Just coffee

Brunch: Leftover burger on a Glutino bagel with relish and ketchup, an orange

Dinner: Went to BJ's to try the new gluten-free pizza. It's wonderful!!!

Now nibbling on a handful of corn chips because I need to take vitamins and they don't sit well on an empty stomach.

Brunch: garlic-encrusted baked polenta with poached egg, sauteed kale

And that would be my dinner tonight... although the precise method of garlic encrusting may turn into just garlicky.

Fun! Thanks all- definitely interesting and I've gotten some good ideas.

Skin prick tests only exclude IgE mediated food allergies or skin sensitivity allergies. They can't diagnose IgG or IgA delayed reaction allergies. For those allergies, blood tests are more effective.

I've also noticed hypoglycemic reactions to eating high sugar or high carb foods, unless I balance those in a meal with low glycemic fats, proteins and low carb, high fiber foods. I can eat grains, but I eat small amounts with vegies and protein. You'll notice from my 'menu' that I add almond butter, hazelnut milk, and chopped pear to my Bob's Red Mill 'Mighty Tasty' hot cereal. Without those additions, I'd be hungry an hour after my meal. With those additions, which lower the total glycemic index of my meal, I can go 4 hours without feel hungry after that bowl of hot cereal.

SUE

The allergist/immunologist I went to wouldn't do the blood testing for delayed food allergy because he said that once we eat a food, we develop antibodies to it. His opinion was that they yield a lot of false positives, and people end up doing an elimination diet anyway. He suggested that I do an elimination diet, which I did.

I found that I was sensitive to several foods, stayed off of them completely for at least 2 years, and can now tolerate one of them--the rest, no and probably never.

I take care to get some protein with every meal/snack--the addition back of the higher rice based carbs seem to, for me, cause the hypoclycemic symptoms regardless. :)

Well since yesterday was much more exciting than today has been so far, I will start with that:

Breakfast: Sausage links, and gluten-free Katz bread made into French Toast (first experience with gluten-free bread and LOVED IT)

Snack: apple slices with caramel to dip

Lunch: skipped because of a late breakfast and knew that a big dinner was coming up

Dinner: steak, mashed potatoes, green beans, salad!! SUPER YUMMY!

Bedtime Snack: Tahitian Vanilla Bean Gelato...Also SUPER YUMMY!

Today:

Breakfast: yogurt with Udi's gluten-free granola

Lunch: left over brat and safe French Fries

Dinner:??? either grilling out turkey tenderloins with roased potoatoes if the rain holds out, or heating up some previously frozen spaghetti sauce with Rice pasta. This is the first time I am trying rice pasta, so far I have only tried corn pasta which I LOVE!!

Snack: either more gelato (who doesn't love that stuff) or I may have some nut thins with some AE chip dip.

Breakfast: one egg fried in butter, a generous spoonful of leftover baked beans, sliced fresh strawberries, coffee

Lunch: Leftover grilled chicken and quinoa salad, banana, water

Dinner will likely be leftover ribs and maybe a green salad after a handful of chips and salsa. Possibly to be followed up with a little dish of peach crisp or a piece of chocolate.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      That is the goal, after all.

      Hello @catnapt, That's so true. Every person with Celiac Disease has different symptoms. There are over 200 that it mimics. Too many still believe that it is only a childhood disease you outgrow. Or it's psychosomatic or simply a fad. Idiots. It's easy to get angry at all of them. You just have to pick at the answers until you find...

      Celiac Disease causes more vitamin D deficiency than the general population because of limited UV sunlight in the winter and the little available from food is not absorbed well in the damaged small intestine.  Taking 10,000 IU a day (250 mcg) a day broke my depression. Taking it for eleven years.  Doctor recently said to not stop.  My 25(OH)D is around 200 nmol/L (80 ng/ml) but it took about six years to get there.  Increasing vitamin D also increases absorption of Calcium. A good start is 100-gram (3.5-ounce) serving of salmon,  vitamin D from 7.5 to 25 mcg (300 to 1,000 IU) but it is going to take additional vitamin D supplement to be effective.  More importantly salmon has an omega-6 to omega-3 ratio 1:10 anti-inflammatory compared to the 15:1 infammatory ratio of the typical Western diet.

      Thank you for sharing your thoughts.  I respectfully disagree.  You cherry picked a small section from the page.  I will do the same below: The agency is seeking information on adverse reactions due to “ingredients of interest” (i.e., non-wheat gluten containing grains (GCGs) which are rye and barley, and oats due to cross-contact with GCGs) and on labeling issues or concerns with identifying these “ingredients of interest” on packaged food products in the U.S. “People with celiac disease or gluten sensitives have had to tiptoe around food, and are often forced to guess about their food options,” said FDA Commissioner Marty Makary, M.D., M.P.H. “We encourage all stakeholders to share their experiences and data to help us develop policies that will better protect Americans and support healthy food choices.” --- end quote Anyone with celiac disease is clearly a stakeholder.  The FDA is encouraging us to share our experiences along with any data to help develop future "policies that will better protect Americans and support healthy food choices".  I see this as our chance to speak up or forever hold our peace.  Like those that do not participate in elections, they are not allowed to complain.  The way I see it, if we do not participate in this request for public comment/feedback, then we should also not complain when we get ill from something labeled gluten-free. Have a blessed day ahead, Known1

      Hello @catnapt, That's so true.  Every person with Celiac Disease has different symptoms.  There are over 200 that it mimics.  Too many still believe that it is only a childhood disease you outgrow.  Or it's psychosomatic or simply a fad.  Idiots.  It's easy to get angry at all of them.   You just have to pick at the answers until you find the ones that work for you.  I too suffer from not being able to take the drugs that work for "everyone else".  SSRIs make me twitch ane feel like toothpicks are holding my eye open, ARBs cripple me.  Statins cause me intestinal Psuedo Obstruction.  Espresso puts me to sleep.  I counted 19 different symptoms that improved from GFD and dealing with my nutritional defecits.  I couldn't breath through my mouth until I started GFD at 64 years old.   My son was born with celiac disease, biopsy diagnosed at weaning.   So why are we the one-percenters.  Why, after being silent for so long, does it suddenly flare? There is the possibility that you have both Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity.  NCGS was not established as a diagnosis until 1980.  NCGS is diagnost by first elimating Celiac Disease as the cause, and showing improvement on GFD.  Nothing says you can't have symptoms from both.  Wheatbelly: Total Nutrition by Dr. Davis was helpful to me. We come to the forum to share what we've learned in dealing with our own symptoms.  Maybe this will help someone. Speaking of which if you don't mind; what is your 25(OH)D vitamin D blood level?  You mentioned a mysterious Calcium issue. Vitamin D, Calcium and Iodine are closely interactive. It is not uncommon for postmenopausal women to have insufficient intake of Iodine.   (RDA): Average daily level of intake sufficient to meet the nutrient requirements of nearly all (97%–98%) healthy individuals; often used to plan nutritionally adequate diets for individuals You are a one-percenter.  You may need higher intake of some essential nutrient supplements to speed up repairing the damages.
