i am going to lynn haven, fl, to visit family (getting a new grandbaby!  yay!!!) and spend some holiday time with daughter and her family.  they like to cook, but aren't gluten-free by any means.  i'm thinking, if i can find somewhere safe, that i could pick up a few meals so that they wouldn't have to worry about what they're making for me.  they have a 3 y.o. and will be dealing with a newborn, so, any less stress for them would be my goal.  

 

anybody have any good places they could share?  thanx so much :)

well, here are a two places i ate safely in panama city, florida:  bonefish (pretty safe chain restaurant, we have found that their employees are well versed for the most part)  and red elephant <pizza place with a grill)   i ate there 3 times with no difficulty.   the pizza is decent, and the staff was very helpful.   whenever the waitress(es) had a question, they came back with the 'right' answer.  three times!  i know, rolling the dice, but for the first few days my daughter was home with a newborn, it was helpful to be able to eat without actually cooking :)  we even took the princess (3 y.o.) and they passed muster (crayons and coloring book for her) so, i would recommend it  ;)

Congrats on the new grandbaby!

 

How about making a few gluten free casseroles, freezing them, and taking them with you? Then you could eat and the new mom wouldn't have to worry about cooking either.

thank you!  :)  we were due for an ugly one, but he's beautiful, so i guess we'll hafta try for next time ;)  ;)

 

that's a good idea, ruth - i have done exactly that in the past when i am sure i can't use <by, use, i mean completely take over lolz) someone else's kitchen.  but, daughter has stainless steel (cuisinart - droooool i was so jealous lolz) cookware and lots of glass pans, etc.  i brought a cutting board, colandar, wooden spoons, a basting brush, etc - things i knew would be suspect if we used hers, and just brillo-ed as we went.  covering pans in tinfoil if we needed to, etc.  the eating out part was just easier if we wanted to be lazy.  plus, the hubs and i are late eaters - probably never eat supper before 7pm - and they were on the early schedule (5:30?  what??!!) so, when everybody ordered food, i could eat whenever i was hungry.   i was so happy to be able to be lazy if i wanted to  :)  

 

anyways, i hope this helps anyone traveling in the area.  we found it with the findme gluten free app - very helpful - also steered us away from that particular 5 guys, but there is one close by.  if you dare....  lolz

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      By rei.b · Posted

      So far 3 months in - worsening symptoms. I have had the worst constipation in my life and I am primarily eating naturally gluten-free foods like potatoes, eggs, salad with homemade dressing, corn tortillas, etc. I hate gluten-free bread and pasta so I don't eat it. Occasionally I eat gluten-free almond flour crackers. As stated in the post, I don't have any vitamin deficiency. I was already tested.

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Talk to your  Talk to your provider about testing for vitamin and mineral deficiency.  celiac disease causes malabsorption and eventually malnutrition.  Especially vitamin D. Having the gallbladder removed seems to be a common step on the way to a Celiac Disease Diagnosis,  Gallbladder is a sympton of deficient Choline. Eggs and red meat are the primary source..Choline makes up a majority of the bile salts.  The bile gets thick, doesn't get enough into intestine to digest fats well.  Can eventually back up into gallbladder, cause gallstones.  Without bile, bowel movements can become hard. Try to avoid all processed foods while you are healing, The gluten-free foods are not fortified with vitamins and use various ingredients to mimic fat that bothers many Celiacs.  Choose vegatables with low omega 6.  Optimum omega 6 to omega 3 ratio is less than 3:1.  Wheat flour is 22:1.  Grass fed milk is 1:1.   Commercial Dairies milk is 5:1.  They feed wheat, rye and barley Gluten as part of the food mix.

      Your DGP-G is also high. The thing to do now would be to trial the gluten-free diet for a few months to see if there is improvement in symptoms.
