Why don't you take a rice cake with PB& Jelly with you for a mid morning snack.

I don't think anything will stick with your for 6 hours. Can you fill your pockets with Almonds or something?

I usually eat "Mighty Tasty gluten-free Hot Cereal" from Bob's Red Mill. I make a pan on Monday and then keep it in the fridge so I can just nuke some the rest of the week. Eat a cereal with some dried fruit and nuts mixed in and it will last longer than high protein stuff.

Almonds are a good suggestion. I had a Saturday class from 8a until 4p that was like some form of torture, so I kept almonds in my bag and would eat them while the teacher used the overhead projector. ;)

I almost always have rice bread (toasted) or a gluten-free english muffin w/ a lot of nut butter (cashew or almond) and a bit of jelly. If I know it will be a while before I can eat again, I'll have a banana with it too.

I posted a couple weeks ago about a breakfast or snack that I love to make myself and it's really filling.

Cut up your favorite fruits. I like strawberries, blueberries, banana and sometimes peaches. I use a few strawberries, a handful of blueberries and a whole banana (which makes it really filling). Add sour cream and sugar, mix it all together and there you go - very filling, yummy (or atleast I think so) breakfast.

For those that think this sounds really gross (as I think many people do), I'd like to say that I got this from my grandma and my dad, and for some strange reason I think this is a Jewish thing. We seem to like sour cream in strange concoctions (ex: Borscht, Schav, this - lol)!!

How about some beans (refried or boiled) and avocado with the eggs. The avocado has fat and that will help hold you a little longer. Six hours is a long time to go without food. If you don't like avocados, nuts have carbs, protein and fat. A perfect combo!

jkmunchkin is right. Sour cream with those fruits sounds weird, but its really good! I had never had it until my dh's jewish stepfather had me try it... now i am hooked! try it!!

Also,

For Breakfast, have a turkey sausage and egg white sandwich and a side of banana.

Then, take an "Ensure" drink with you to class. Drink it around 10:00...They work as snacks and/or meal replacers and are pretty filling for being so small.

That is what I would do,

No water???? That guys sounds psycho. I agree on the avocado idea. It sounds strange but scrambled eggs with avocado is really good and filling too.

I know it sounds counterintuitive, but I've found that if I eat only 3 eggs I am less hungry before lunch than if I eat 3 eggs and toast. Try it, it might work for you.

Same here! If I have carbs with breakfast, I am jittery by mid-morning. I think it is caused by a blood sugar rise and then sudden drop that causes it. I agree, that teacher is nuts and you have a right to a drink of water. Report him to the dean if he causes a fuss, they have to provide for medical handicaps as well.

have something with a balance of carbohydrates, protein and fat.

i suggest a large bowl of quinoa flakes with (soy)milk, fruit, and nuts.

Warm brown rice pudding with a little milk and some maple syrup .Toss a few craisins and toasted almonds on top .

Did someone ask about sausage in a bun?I can suggest gluten-free sausage in cornbread , use muffin tins to make single servings. You can either slice the cooked sausage and gently dot the muffins or just stuff a half a cooked sausage into each muffin . gluten-free cornbread mix lends itself well to blueberry muffins too.

If you get a note from your doctor that you need water and a small snack (to avoid dehydration, low blood sugar, etc.) and bring that NOT to your teacher but to someone way over his head--the department chair, the academic vice president, something like that), then your psycho teacher will HAVE to let you! (I'm assuming this is a college teacher--if it's a high school teacher, take the note to the principal.)

I think it is probably illegal for your prof/teacher to deny drinking water. And I certainly ditto the note from the doc about snacking. At the very least, once s/he isn't your teacher anymore, you should complain to the Dean/Prncipal to help those who come after you. It's insane.

MAKE SURE YOU GET A NOTE FROM YOUR DOCTOR (or even student health service). AS A STUDENT, IT DOES NOT MATTER THAT YOU ARE RIGHT AND THE PROFESSOR IS WRONG--YOU NEED TO HAVE LEGAL GROUNDS HERE, AND THE THE DOCTOR'S NOTE WILL GIVE YOU JUST THAT.

Trust me on this--my husband teaches at a college.

cream of buckwheat with raisins. Or a boiled egg w/ bacon. Then take with you in your backpack some fruit and almonds with raisins to snack on. Nothing will stick you for that long.

Could you make a protein shake or something liquid and drink it? I know you said he doesn't like you to drinkanything, but that seems crazy. If you are drinking something with calories that might be better tolerated than eating a snack.

You could do kefir or put protein powder in a juice or even a green drink. If you can't see what is in the container, then he might think it is just water and be ok with it.

I just don't see how someone can punish you for drinking water.

Hope your class is over soon.

It's hard to find things to keep you full. The key is protein and fiber. I eat the Bob's gluten-free Mighty Tasty Cereal, which keeps me full for a few hours (not sure if it would last 6- that's a long time). I also cook up whole grain quinoa or whole grain teff and add some sugar (or honey) which will keep you going for a long time. Quinoa is great because it is a complete protein with loads of fiber! It might not sound good, but it really is! Teff can be used the same way, add some nuts and/or dried fruit and you'll be set for the good majority of your class.

No water! Your teacher sounds too strict! Doesn't he realize how vital water is to the human body!!! Plus, water helps stop hunger pains!

I'd bring a snack to eat after breakfast in my car on the way to class, another snack for break, then another one for the ride home. I agree with everyone's comments about talking to someone above him about the no water rule at the very least considering how long the class is. I play flute at Mass and need water, so to keep it more discreet, I use a straw. It's a lot more discreet than having to tilt your head back. You might find more chances to sneak that way.

You need to eat some meat to carry you longer. If you're not vegetarian. I'm hypoglycemic and eating a little something sweet just plain screws me up all morning - I get the shakes from the carb let-down (toast/jam etc.). If not you should eat toast laced with peanut butter or peabutter.

And I'd be eating up until the moment I walked into class. Literally.

Sounds unreasonable to me. Don't they allow a bathroom break? You could scarf a handful of nuts on the way.

Good luck.

      High TTG-IgG and Normal TTG-IgA

      @SamAlvi, It's common with anemia to have a lower tTg IgA antibodies than DGP IgG ones, but your high DGP IgG scores still point to Celiac disease. Since a gluten challenge would pose further health damage, you may want to ask for a DNA test to see if you have any of the commonly known genes for Celiac disease.

      Thank you for the clarification and for taking the time to explain the terminology so clearly. I really appreciate your insight, especially the distinction between celiac disease and NCGS and how anemia can point more toward celiac. This was very helpful for me.

      Son's legs shaking

      My 5yo was diagnosed with celiac last year by being tested after his sister was diagnosed. We are very strict on the gluten-free diet, but unsure what his reactions are as he was diagnosed without many symptoms other than low ferritin. He had a school party where his teacher made gluten-free gingerbread men. I almost said no because she made it in her...

      @SamAlvi, It's common with anemia to have a lower tTg IgA antibodies than DGP IgG ones, but your high DGP IgG scores still point to Celiac disease.   Since a gluten challenge would pose further health damage, you may want to ask for a DNA test to see if you have any of the commonly known genes for Celiac disease.  Though having the genes for Celiac is not diagnostic in and of itself, taken with the antibody tests, the anemia and your reaction to gluten, it may be a confirmation you have Celiac disease.   Do discuss Gastrointestinal Beriberi with your doctors.  In Celiac disease, Gastrointestinal Beriberi is frequently overlooked by doctors.  The digestive system can be affected by localized Thiamine deficiency which causes symptoms consistent with yours.  Correction of nutritional deficiencies quickly is beneficial.  Benfotiamine, a form of thiamine, helps improve intestinal health.  All eight B vitamins, including Thiamine (Benfotiamine), should be supplemented because they all work together.   The B vitamins are needed in addition to iron to correct anemia.   Hope this helps!  Keep us posted on your progress!

      Currently, there are no tests for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out and we do have testing for celiac disease. There are two primary test modalities for diagnosing celiac disease. One involves checking for antibodies in the blood. For the person with celiac disease, when gluten is ingested, it produces an autoimmune response in the lining of the small bowel which generates specific kinds of antibodies. Some people are IGA deficient and such that the IGA antibody tests done for celiac disease will have skewed results and cannot be trusted. In that case, there are IGG tests that can be ordered though, they aren't quite as specific for celiac disease as the IGA tests. But the possibility of IGA deficiency is why a "total IGA" test should always be ordered along with the TTG-IGA. The other modality is an endoscopy (scoping of the upper GI track) with a biopsy of the small bowel lining. The aforementioned autoimmune response produces inflammation in the small bowel lining which, over time, damages the structure of the lining. The biopsy is sent to a lab and microscopically analyzed for signs of this damage. If the damage is severe enough, it can often be spotted during the scoping itself. The endoscopy/biopsy is used as confirmation when the antibody results are positive, since there is a small chance that elevated antibody test scores can be caused by things other than celiac disease, particularly when the antibody test numbers are not particularly high. If the antibody test numbers are 10x normal or higher, physicians will sometimes declare an official diagnosis of celiac disease without an endoscopy/biopsy, particularly in the U.K. Some practitioners use stool tests to detect celiac disease but this modality is not widely recognized in the medical community as valid. Both celiac testing modalities outlined above require that you have been consuming generous amounts of gluten for weeks/months ahead of time. Many people make the mistake of experimenting with the gluten free diet or even reducing their gluten intake prior to testing. By doing so, they invalidate the testing because antibodies stop being produced, disappear from the blood and the lining of the small bowel begins to heal. So, then they are stuck in no man's land, wondering if they have celiac disease or NCGS. To resume gluten consumption, i.e., to undertake a "gluten challenge" is out of the question because their reaction to gluten is so strong that it would endanger their health. The lining of the small bowel is the place where all of the nutrition in the food we consume is absorbed. This lining is made up of billions of microscopically tiny fingerlike projections that create a tremendous nutrient absorption surface area. The inflammation caused by celiac disease wears down these fingers and greatly reduces the surface area needed for nutrient absorption. Thus, people with celiac disease often develop iron deficiency anemia and a host of other vitamin and mineral deficiencies. It is likely that many more people who have issues with gluten suffer from NCGS than from celiac disease. We actually know much more about the mechanism of celiac disease than we do about NCGS but some experts believe NCGS can transition into celiac disease.

We are very strict on the gluten-free diet, but unsure what his reactions are as he was diagnosed without many symptoms other than low ferritin.  He had a school party where his teacher made gluten-free gingerbread men. I almost said no because she made it in her kitchen but I thought it would be ok.  Next day and for a few after his behavior is awful. Hitting, rude, disrespectful. Mainly he kept saying his legs were shaking. Is this a gluten exposure symptom that anyone else gets? Also the bad behavior?
