I kind of don't really miss the bread and pasta, but the thought of no more wings or graham crackers really gets to me. Dropping weight, finally, but I am concerned about getting enough fiber and nutrition without the whole grains. Any suggestions>??

SG, there are lots of things! whole grain brown rice, baking with bean flours, adding some whole ground flax seeds to cooking, finding gluten-free granola bars with high fiber, cereals that we can eat, fruit and veggies provide fiber too. You don't have to cut out pasta, in fact, there are a lot of whole grain rice pastas that are very good!

I also take Fiber Choice (I checked with company, it's gluten-free) which is otc, chewable fiber supplement.

I'm sure others will be posting even more things I didn't come up with!

Not to worry! :)

I've heard there are some wings that are gluten-free, or you can make them yourself, AND there is a bakery that makes gluten-free graham crackers

it gets easier, you really do not have to "do without" much of anything except of course the evil gluten!

Nini,

I looked at that website and their stuff looks WONDERFUL.

Have you tried any of it? What do you recommend?

I'm still hesitant to pay exhorbitant shipping charges for food that most of the general population can go buy at the corner convenience store...

they had some at our last support group meeting and EVERYTHING I tried was absolutely delicious! I love the butterfly cookies that are like a powdered sugar cookie with a berry filling, they are sooooooo decadent! Also, I really was impressed with the graham crackers.

There are a lot of naturally gluten-free foods that have more fiber (and vitamins/minerals) than wheat, barley, rye, or oats. Brown and wild rices are good starts, but quinoa, buckwheat, amaranth and millet are good sources as well. Lentils and beans of all varieties also are good sources of fiber, with more protein than the gluten-free grains. And many many fruits and vegetables are good sources of fiber as well.

Spinach, raspberries, almonds, and broccoli are good sources of fiber. I recommend this site if you are interested in the fiber content of certain foods:

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      Thanks, I’m still dealing with the pain and tingling and itching and feeling like bugs or something crawling around on my face and scalp. It’s been a miserable experience. I saw my eye doc last week, the eye itself was okay, so they didn’t do anything. I did take a 7 day course of an antiviral. I’m hoping for a turnaround soon! My life is full of stress ...

      I don't think any apps are up to date, which is exactly why this happened to you. Most of the data in such apps is years old, and it doesn't get updated in real time. Ultimately there is no substitution for learning to read labels. The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. ...

      What is the best gluten free scanner app? I have the "gluten-free Scanner" app. I scanned an almond joy and it says it contains gluten when the package is labeled gluten free

      GI DX celiac despite neg serology and no biopsy

      Certainly, it would b wise to have a gene test done if your physician is open to it as it would provide some more data to understand what's going on. But keep in mind that the genetic test for celiac disease cannot be used as to diagnose celiac disease, only to establish the potential to develop active celiac disease. About 40% of the general population possess...

My life is full of stress but I have been on / off the gluten free diet for the last year , after being talked into going back on gluten to have a biopsy, that looked okay. But I do have positive antibody levels that have been responsive  to a gluten free diet. I can’t help but wonder if the last year has caused all this.

Ultimately there is no substitution for learning to read labels. The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.

But keep in mind that the genetic test for celiac disease cannot be used as to diagnose celiac disease, only to establish the potential to develop active celiac disease. About 40% of the general population possess one or both of the primary genes known to be associated with the development of active celiac disease but only about 1% of the population actually develop active celiac disease. So, the gene test is an effective "rule out" tool but not an effective diagnostic tool.
