Staying At Extended Family's House For A Week

Starting on Thursday, I'm going to be staying with my cousin, aunt and uncle in Vegas for about a week. My cousin is graduating from college so there are going to be about 30 people in the house during the day and for a lot of the meals, especially during the weekend. I'm bringing foil, soy sauce, cutting boards, and pastas to get me through till my parents will be there on Saturday and we can go to the grocery store. They're being really great about listening to what needs to happen including finding gluten free cupcakes for the graduation celebration and notifying the restaurant (they already have a gluten-free menu) and asking lots of questions. And I'm already planning on spending a lot of time in the kitchen so I know exactly what's safe and what's not.

 

Is there anything I'm missing?

What about a strainer? I have one that is smaller and more of a scooper (kinda like a ladle) i use when i've only made a little bit.

Sounds like you're armed and dangerous to wicked gluten.    Way to go!!!    My only suggestion would be to  add easy snacks, like sunflower seeds or nuts.

I'm thinking like Marilyn- some filling snacks.  More than you could need just incase things don't work out the way you think it will.

      A question - eggs & dairy

      First of all, being able to return to foods that you have developed a sensitivity to in connection with celiac disease is not a given. You may or may not be able to do this with time. But the ability to do so seems to be connected with the healing of the villous lining of the small bowel which often takes 2-3 years in adults after attaining to consistently...

      Diagnosed gluten allergy but not Celiac

      Welcome to the forum, @Waterdance! Constipation and diarrhea are classic celiac symptoms and hemorrhoids is usually the outworking of either or both of those two problems. But I'm curious about your statement, "I probably don't fit the diagnostic criteria for a diagnosis of Celiac Disease." Perhaps your understanding of what that encompasses is...

      A question - eggs & dairy

      Hello everyone. For those of you that I’ve had a sensitivity develop to eggs and dairy (one or both) I am wondering for those who were able to go back to eating these things how did you discover that it was all right? I have a sensitivity to both, but I really miss eggs and I really miss dairy but I’m afraid to try them again so I’m wondering what other...

      Diagnosed gluten allergy but not Celiac

      Hi and thanks for this place to ask questions. I have been diagnosed with a gluten and milk allergy but so far I have no Celiac diagnosis and honestly I probably don't fit the diagnostic criteria for a diagnosis of Celiac Disease. I've come here because I'm having problems and you all would be knowledgeable about gluten free diets. An allergist...

But the ability to do so seems to be connected with the healing of the villous lining of the small bowel which often takes 2-3 years in adults after attaining to consistently truly gluten free diet. But you will just have to test the waters. Experimentation with those foods is the only way. Realize also there are thresholds of tolerance. You may be able to consume those foods without issue but not as often and in lesser amounts than in your pre celiac days. So, start small and go slow.

But I'm curious about your statement, "I probably don't fit the diagnostic criteria for a diagnosis of Celiac Disease." Perhaps your understanding of what that encompasses is outdated and deficient, as is also true of many physicians. Actually, now there are over 200 symptoms and medical conditions that have come to be associated with celiac disease and the list keeps growing.  And you use the term "gluten intolerance". What does that mean to you? Actually, gluten intolerance is a catch all...

I've come here because I'm having problems and you all would be knowledgeable about gluten free diets.   An allergist diagnosed me with a gluten and milk allergy about 15 years ago but she said "if you eat a lot of it, don't worry about it." This haunted me because I did not eat a lot of it but it was in my diet. Going 100% gluten free was daunting so I struggled with lowering my intake and observing results when adding it back. Due to aging, I think, the problem is...
