Buckwheat crepes (french pancakes) seem to keep me full forever.

I do fiund buckwheat a bit heavy and sometimes a bit of indigestion but perhaps this is what makes em keep you full so long.

To make the batter just add water and salt to buckwheat flour until its the same sort of consituency as regular batter you can also add an egg, add more flour to balance the mix. Then you heat butter in the pan to stop it sticking and pour it in and spread it around.

Its a bit of a practice thing .... after a few tries its easy but at first its a bit tricky.

My favorites are goats cheese, ham, onions and mushrooms .. if you don't have problems with casein then some emmental or sticky type cheese can extend it. You can drop on some mixed herbs etc. .. I cook the ham, mushrooms and onios first in a frying pan.

Then you add the mix to the middle of the crepe and fold it over ... the cheese should melt partially and you have a high calorie filling snack...I often use these when skiing or camping because they keep you going so long but make sure you get some exersize they calorie count high.

I was wondering if anyone has any ideas of some breakfast that lasts with you.. I usually have eggs, and grits or eggs and toast, I have to eat at like 6 and dont get out of class til 12 20 so this is hard I am use to snaking and they dont allow it! does anyone have any suggestions of a breakfast I can switch up to that last other than eggs? does anyone have a good sausauge swirl, like bisquits with sausage in it recipes?

I just this morning took slow cooked brown rice from the day before, added a chopped up apple and cooked it another 1/2 hour with water (or pear juice if you like), then ate it. It was pretty good, and the most filling breakfast I've had in a while. I did have to add quite a bit of sweetner: I usually only add maple syrup, not eating refined sugar for the most part, but ended up adding raisins and brown sugar as well.

Anyway, it lasted.

Breakfast has been the hardest meal of the day for me too. I was trying gluten-free waffles or bagles with peanut butter, but my problem was trying to find somewhere out to toast them that wouldn't be cross containmentaion. So, now I usually take with my fruit, or Mott's applesauce, or nuts with maybe some raisins (like my own trail mix). These all seem to work for me! My other problem is lunch - salads get old and so do the dressings. I have allergies to soy and dairy too which makes both of these meals a lot more challenging!

I've been having more fun with salads by adding things that seemingly don't make sense: asparagus, green beans...AND I have the best dressing that I make which is to squeeze a mineola (really sweet orange), a bit o lemon squeezed, some balsamic, salt and pepper, a dash of sugar...mix all up, then slowly wisk in the olive oil. It frothes up....very nice. I also plop a huge fillet of salmon on top...but that is usually dinner.

It's good that this works for you, but a pure carb breakfast would give me massive heartburn and be gone in a maximum of three hours. Everybody needs to experiment.

I used to always have a problem with keeping hunger (& low bllod sugar) at bay until lunch time. Now I have a bowl of gluten free museli, which I make up myself. I normally combine:-

Rice flakes

Millet flakes

Rice puffs

linseeds/ flax seeds

hazelnuts

raisins & other dried fruits

The rice flakes are rather hard, so I usually soak a few table spoons of museli in water over night.

Personally I don't, but you could also add some sugar if it's not sweet enough for you.

Recently discovered a new fav breakfast. It keeps me full easily for 6-7 hrs. Bowl of Enjoy Life Cinnamon Granola with a fresh peach diced on top, pour DariFree over. Yummy. This and a cup of coffee and I'm good to go for quite awhile.

That's defiinitely not for everybody. I bought a box of it, took one bite, and tossed it.

We love Pamela's pancakes and they are great to freeze after you make them and pop in the microwave. We put Peanut butter and either applesauce or syrup on them. They are very filling. Also I make Kinnikinnick english muffins toasted with two soft boiled eggs. Adding fruit with either of these.

Your teacher is crazy!!

      Hi Cristiana   Yes I've had the biopsy results showing normal villi and intestinal mucosa.  The repeat endoscopy (requested by the gastro doc) would be to take samples from further into the intestine than the previous endoscopy reached.      
    • Wheatwacked
      Transglutaminase IgA is the gold-standard blood test for celiac disease. Sensitivity of over 90% and specificity of 95–99%. It rarely produces false positives.  An elevated level means your immune system is reacting to gluten.  Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS) does not typically cause high levels of tTG-IgA. Unfortunately the protocols for a diagnosis of Celiac Disease are aimed at proving you don't have it, leaving you twisting in the wind. Genetic testing and improvement on a trial gluten free diet, also avoiding milk protein, will likely show improvement in short order if it is Celiac; but will that satisfy the medical system for a diagnosis? If you do end up scheduling a repeat endoscopy, be sure to eat up to 10 grams of gluten for 8 - 12 weeks.  You want  to create maximum damage. Not a medical opinion, but my vote is yes.

      Cristiana asks a very relevant question. What looks normal to the naked eye may not look normal under the microscope.
    • cristiana
      Hello @CC90 Can I just ask a question: have you actually been told that your biopsy were normal, or just that your stomach, duodenum and small intestine looked normal? The reason I ask is that when I had my endoscopy, I was told everything looked normal.  My TTG score was completely through the roof at the time, greater than 100 which was then the cut off max. for my local lab.  Yet when my biopsy results came back, I was told I was stage 3 on the Marsh scale.  I've come across the same thing with at least one other person on this forum who was told everything looked normal, but the report was not talking about the actual biopsy samples, which had to be looked at through a microscope and came back abnormal.
    • trents
      My bad. I should have reread your first post as for some reason I was thinking your TTG was within normal range. While we are talking about celiac antibody blood work, you might not realize that there is not yet an industry standard rating scale in use for those blood tests so just having a raw number with out the reference scale can be less than helpful, especially when the test results are marginal. But a result of 87.4 is probably out of the normal range and into the positive range for any lab's scale. But back to the question of why your endoscopy/biopsy didn't show damage despite significantly positive TTG. Because they took the trouble to take seven samples, it is not likely they missed damage because of it being patchy. The other possibility is that there hasn't been time for the damage to show up. How long have you been experiencing the symptoms you describe in your first post? Having said all that, there are other medical conditions that can cause elevated TTG-IGA values and sometimes they are transient issues. I think it would be wise to ask for another TTG-IGA before the repeat endoscopy to see if it is still high.  Knitty kitty's suggestion of getting genetic testing done is also something to think about. About 35% of the general population will have one or both genes that are markers for the potential to develop active celiac disease but only about 1% of the population actually develop celiac disease. So, having a celiac potential gene cannot be used to definitively diagnose celiac disease but it can be realistically used to rule it out if you don't have either of the genes. If your symptoms persist, and all testing is complete and the follow-up endoscopy/biopsy still shows no damage, you should consider trialing a gluten free diet for a few months to see if symptoms improve. If not celiac disease, you could have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity).
