I've only been gluten-free for about a month and trying to find restraunts is getting to be a real challenge!

I am from Weatherford & am having same challenge. I go into Ft Worth a lot & have to make the trip count for as much as I can, so I have to eat while there. I can handle it at home but I keep getting glutened when I go out, even though I try to be carefull.

Good Luck,

Deb

Hi! What part of Dallas are you in? There's a restaurant called Laura's Bistro in a market called Delicious-N-Fit, which is in Plano. The WHOLE restaurant is Gluten Free, and they have a GREAT chocolate cake. They also sell glutten free cooking necessities. If you're in the area, it's on the Northeast corner of Alma and Parker.

Hi Lollie,

Three months here. We don't eat out at restaurants often anyway, but lately I've been getting the urge to. I'm guessing it may have to do with completely eliminating fast food, pizza, donuts, etc. and changing my diet so much at home.

Had my first meal out last week and OMG it was good. One of my BC favs, Cowboy Chicken's special enchiladas. They're quite different.

I also recommend the monthly meetings of the Lone Star support group (dfwceliac). Many of those people eat out all the time.

best regards, lm

p.s., oops just realized these are new posts responding to your year old post!

Donna,

Central Market is at I30 and Hulen on the Southwest corner. It's worth the trip to see the store, but they don't have much gluten-free. Healthy Approach in Colleyville has the best selection I know of if you haven't been there, I highly recommend it.

Hi Wendy

I was just asking a coworker the other night about Central Market it is closer to me than Colleyville, I have a tendecy to get lost if I go past DFW, I35 and such. I will make a trip to CM to see it but Whole Foods is pretty good with there gluten-free items.

Thanks

Hi there, the monthly meeting are with the NorthTexas Glutne Intolerance Group there is a web site just look up northtexasgig.com sorry I don't know how to put up the web link but anyway you can sign up on there for the daily newletter which are free I did that for a while until I got upset with my doctor and told her to stop because I was negative which now I think was stupid of me because she gave very good info and warnings and stuff. anyway they do have monthly meetings in the HEB area. I just looked at there web site and the next meeting is July 7 from 9-12 Celiac 101 and 10-12 group meeting. I think that this is very informative web site. Betty Barfield is the president manager@northtexasgig.com. I have never gone to a meeting, i think that the first one is free to attend and then you have to start paying after that, anyway I hope that this will help.

I am from Keller, TX. Was diagnosed in May. I am doing fairly well but have been glutened in restaurants which is very aggravating. Anyway, I do belong to NTGIG and have gone the meetings. Need to know safe places in Keller and Southlake.

Any good places to eat in Fort Worth? It was hard enough getting vegetarian foods that didn't have chicken broth or something in it. I used to go to Spiral Diner. Are there any sort of meetings in Ft Worth?

The fort worth group would best for you. See the above posts. I don't know about vegetarian menu selections but Lucille's is great and very accomodating.

      COVID19 and getting glutened

      By lauramac · Posted

      I was diagnosed with Celiac Disease abput 10 years ago. When I was initially diagnosed my only "symptom" was persistently low iron (that occasionally dipped into anemia). After diagnosis,  over time, I started to develop symptoms when exposed to gluten--they have been overall relatively minor, but have increased over time (and yes, I realize my guts are likely being wrecked regardless of the symptoms) on the rare occasions I've been exposed to gluten. I had COVID19 last week (now testing negative) and was glutened last night (never trust anything labeled gluten-free in a mixed environment). I had my traditional symptoms (sharp gas pains, burping, nausea, stomach ache) but they were accompanied by new, more intense symptoms (muscle cramps all over my body--feet, calves, biceps, neck, shoulders, jaw, abdomen, I'm still sore today and cold sweats). I spent about 6 hours writhing before I felt well enough to get up.  I have been told by my allergist that COVID19 can cause your immune system to hyper react. I'm wondering if that's what happened here.   Has anyone else had experience getting glutened post COVID19? Relatively shortly after recovering from COVID19? Was it a more extreme reaction or same? I can't seem to find any articles on this, so I thought I'd ask the community.  Thank you!

      Draft gluten-free ciders… can they be trusted ?

      By Rogol72 · Posted

      A friend of mine is in the bar trade most of his life and has never heard of lines being mixed for different type of beers and ciders. Better to stick with cans.

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      Thanks very much for confirming my suspicion @Scott Adams! That helps a lot because I'm really trying to track down and get rid of these sources of cross-contact and so I'm going to just rule out the draft ciders and hope that helps. Also @Rogol72 its nice to hear you haven't had a problem on that side of the pond - draft cider lines being used for cider only certainly sounds like the right way to do it, but I think that must not always be practiced over here!

      Gluten challenge and Hashimoto's Thyroiditis

      By Zuma888 · Posted

      I didn't ask a doctor about this actually. I did ask several doctors a long time ago and they told me gluten has nothing to do with hashimoto's. One of them told me to do a gluten challenge to test for celiac, but at the time I was in graduate school so couldn't afford to be even more ill than I was. If you have the symptoms, I really don't advise you to do a gluten challenge. It messed me up mentally and physically for months. At the same time, I benefitted from doing the challenge in the sense that it convinced me that all my symptoms were truly from gluten - even stuff like insomnia! So now I am terrified to eat gluten, whereas before I would have a little once in a while and not notice anything dramatic.

      Gluten challenge and Hashimoto's Thyroiditis

      By Winnie-Ther-Pooh · Posted

      I am in a similar situation where I can't feasibly do a gluten challenge but have all the symptoms and I have 2 celiac genes. I'm curious if your doctor advised you to eat as if you had a diagnosis or if they were more dismissive about it.
