I need to carb load for the triple bypass coming up next weekend. I'm also doing a 130 mile ride this weekend over two mountain passes. For anyone else that has carb loaded, can you let me know what you ate? Right now I'm looking at LOTs of rice pasta, veggies, and some turkey meat for protein. Thanks!

risotto with sweet potatoes/winter squash is my classic carb loading meal (running) and has been for years

applesauce, gluten-free pretzles during the day, white potatoes (peeled) are great snacks too

usually a bit of nuts, dairy, or fish for protein. i'd go with foods you normally eat over any other consideration.

Thanks, risotto with sweet potatoes sounds great. Damn, I don't know why I didn't get risotto at the store, I did get sweet potatoes. Pasta, risotto, and sweet potatoes.

This weekend is a training ride, so trying something slightly new, but in the same realm wouldn't be bad. Triple bypass: Open Original Shared Link I'm planning to ride this on Saturday. Open Original Shared Link

      Not Sure What to Think

      By MMH13 · Posted

      Thank you so much, everyone. For the moment my doctor just has me taking iron but hopefully we can reconnect soon. I'm going to look into genetic testing, too. Great advice all around and I appreciate it--and you can bet I'm going off the PPIs!

      Sore muscles

      By Eldene · Posted

      I walk fast for fitness, 4 to 6 km per day. I am also 74 years old. Apart from the Celiac challenge, my lifestyle is healthy. I had a sciatiac nerve pinching under my one foot, with inflamation in my whole shin. It was almost cured, when the other shin started paining and burning. I do stretches, use a natural cooling gel and rest my feet. Can Celiac cause muscle pains/inflamation, or is it just over-excercising?

      Trader Joe's grocery prodcuts

      By LovintheGFlife · Posted

      I recently started shopping at a nearby Trader Joe's store. I was surprised at the number and variety of (healthy) gluten-free options sold there. I must admit their low prices are also quite tempting. However, I am curious as to the labeling on all their packages. While none of their products are certified as gluten-free, many are identified as 'GLUTEN FREE' on the packaging. Are these items safe for celiacs? Has anyone tried Trader Joe's products and have there been any adverse reactions?

      Gluten challenge

      By Beverley Ann Johnson · Posted

      HI, my doctor suggested one week of consuming gluten before blood tests.  I have been gluten free for 3 years.  Has anyone been through this and will I get exact results after one week of consuming gluten?  I don't even know if I can do this, if I get sick I am not sure if I can continue, any suggestions??  Thanks in advance.
