its been over 100 degrees for the past 3 days now, and i dont want to keep torchering me and the cats to cooking with the oven or stove twice a day to make food. Anyone know any cold meals that are gluten free? or atleast meals that are microwavable??? dairy is also out of the question for now, still trying to stay away from it

smoothies, fruit, veggies, tuna, hard boiled eggs, sandwiches with corn tortillas, lettuce wraps. you can buy a pre-cooked chicken (of course check ingredients) and keep it in your fridge to add to salads and stuff. sunshine veggie burgers and ian's chicken nuggets (both microwavable). those rice pouches that you microwave and a can of lentils. you can get a george forman to easily cook meats and veggies without use of the stove and oven. its less heat and less hassle.

what would u put into the sandwichs?? in your personal opinon mango do u think i can handle lunch meats yet?? i have staid away from hotdogs and lunch meats so far because of my stomic.

as for the ians, the only ones i found are breaded so im taking it those are not gluten-free right??

i thought the rice pouchs had really bad cc issuses?

as for smoothies is it safe to use a old blender or do i need a new one?

as for the grill, unfortunatly i had to throw mine away :( i had scraped alot of the tephlon off prior to going gluten free. no money to replace it anytime soon makes me sad that thing was handy

I make a chicken and wild rice salad that's a hearty meal but great on a hot day.

I've never heard of really bad cc issues with the rice pouches. I'm talking about the ones in the freezer section. Only one ingredient: frozen rice.

Did you previously use gluten in your blender? Is it glass? I think you if you can clean it really well it should be okay.

I put organic turkey, lettuce, avocado and mayo in a corn tortilla and roll it up. Conventional lunch meats might be a problem for you if you can't find more natural ones. You can do tuna in a corn tortilla too.

Ians makes a completely allergen free chicken nugget.

If you're worried about the blender maybe you should stay away, or I've seen them for like $15.

Microwave Popcorn

Fruit (there are tons of fruits that are cheap now because they are in season)

Fruit Salads

Tuna Salad

Chicken Salad

Beef Salad (grind up roast beef with mayo, pickle, and onion) Eat with crackers or put on a lettuce leaf

Peanut Butter

Trail Mixes

Amy's Dinners

Nachos......corn chips....bean dip.....guacamole.....mmmm

Corn tortillas filled with beans and guac.

Those are a few that I came up with off the top of my head.......Also you can pick a day to cook a large amount of food and then just eat leftovers. That way you only heat up the house that one time. Tonight I made a large skillet of chicken with rice, beans,peppers, tomoatoes, seasonings, and salsa. It will last me for several days.

      I wish Dr’s would have these discussions with their patients. So frustrating but will continue to do research. Absolutely love this website. I will post any updates on my testing and results.  Thank you

      Losing 12" of your small bowel is going to present challenges for you in nutritional uptake because you are losing a significant amount of nutritional absorption surface area. You will need to focus on consuming foods that are nutritionally dense and also probably look at some good supplements. If indeed you are having issues with gluten you will need to educate yourself as to how gluten is hidden in the food supply. There's more to it than just avoiding the major sources of gluten like bread and pasta. It is hidden in so many things you would never expect to find it in like canned tomato soup and soy sauce just to name a few. It can be in pills and medications.  Also, your "yellow diarrhea, constipation and bloating" though these are classic signs of a gluten disorder, could also be related to the post surgical shorter length of your small bowel causing incomplete processing/digestion of food.

      Yes this information helps. I will continue to be pro active with this issues I am having. More testing to be done. Thank you so much for your response.

      There are two gluten-related disorders that share many of the same symptoms but differ in nature from each other. One is known as celiac disease or "gluten intolerance". By nature, it is an autoimmune disorder, meaning the ingestion of gluten triggers the body to attack it's own tissues, specifically the lining of the small bowel. This attack causes inflammation and produces antibodies that can be detected in the blood by specific tests like the TTG-IGA test you had. Over time, if gluten is not withheld, this inflammation can cause severe damage to the lining of the small bowel and even result in nutrient deficiency related health issues since the small bowel lining is organ where all the nutrition found in our food is absorbed.  The other is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity or just "gluten sensitivity") which we know less about and are unsure of the exact mechanism of action. It is not an autoimmune disorder and unlike celiac disease it does not damage the lining of the small bowel, though, like celiac disease, it can cause GI distress and it can also do other kinds of damage to the body. It is thought to be more common than celiac disease. Currently, we cannot test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out to arrive at a diagnosis of NCGS. Both disorders require elimination of gluten from the diet.  Either of these disorders can find their onset at any stage of life. We know that celiac disease has a genetic component but the genes are inactive until awakened by some stress event. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% develop active celiac disease. The incidence of NCGS is thought to be considerably higher. I hope this helps.

      I have always eaten gluten and never stopped until my recent episode. I started more wheat products as my Dr. requested for the Tissue Transglutaminase Iga Antibody. mye result Value <1.0 Value interpretation: <15.0 Antibody not detected > or =15.0 Antibody detected I do not understand any of it. After eating all that wheat product my body exploded with all sorts of symptoms. I stop gluten ASAP. I am still in the healing process. I started having issues after my surgery.
