I've been gluten free for only two days and I've been really worried about how to make the correct food choices and eating out. I've read several posts tonight and my mind is at ease. Being new to the celiac world, this forum is extremely helpful.

Welcome here!

Glad you really like this place :) , it's almost like an encylcopedia of knowledge about Celiac, gluten, and its effects on the mind, body, and soul. It's a helpful place.

Need any help, fear not to ask! Most are friendly, epesically if they can steer a person from making a terrible decision and consuming gluten. :blink:

Feel free to PM me if you need.

this forum is a must for the newly diagnosed as it does contain things i personally would have never thought about excludeing from my diet. keep at it as it only gets easier to pick the thing you know are good for you and safe. everyone here is in the same boat and we all need ecouagement and some sympathy and its allways best from people who understand and KNOW what its like to live in a gluten free world. best of luck.

I spent all my free time for about three weeks after I discovered this forum, and am still often here searching and reading old posts. There is such a wealth of information. Most of my questions and concerns have been answered by and expanded on by others and I've been "saved" from the trial-and-error method of determining safe foods and brands.

I recently checked out a newly published celiac book from the library - Celiac Disease, a hidden epidemic by Peter H.R. Green, MD. (director of the Celiac Disease Center and Columbia Univ.) and Rory Jones (a science writer of health and medical topics). After reading through it I found that I knew very nearly everything written in the book, and then some (okay, there were a few things I didn't know already). By the way, celiac.com was mentioned in the authors' list of references.

Welcome! You've found the best place to be. Very very helpful and informative. Keep reading and learning, and realize there could be some ups and downs...but you will stabilize and will feel so much better. And seriously, I think most people on this board who've been here any length of time know more than DOCTORS - - doctors don't live it, WE do.

Keep reading and learnign and you'll do great. :)

      Yeah, that one is always hard, especially since life seems to revolve around food. That happened to me 2 weeks ago with hibachi and with Hungarian hot dogs. I used to be more picky, but now I would love to try all the things if I could. On the bright side, my husband is absolutely wonderful with it, and his mom often brings a few certified gluten-free things to family get-togethers just for me (and tries to make sure main dishes are safe too). Having the people closest to you be supportive can make a huge difference.

      I hear you. My extended family is very good about factoring in my celiac disease safety needs when making family celebration meal plans but sometimes it breaks down in the spur of the moment decisions to "Oh, let's go out and get some teriyaki" or the like. Especially when my brother in law comes into town 'cause he's pretty particular about what he likes to eat. So, sometimes I just say, "You guys go ahead without me. I'll find some leftovers." But, still, I admit to feeling a little left out at such times and a little like a 5th wheel.

      Same, and I appreciate your comments. I just needed to get it off my chest. Sometimes, even when its a genuine mistake, it can feel all too hurtful and I didn't want to go back to work tomorrow still in my feelings.

      Yes, probably slipped his mind. Grace is in order here is my thought.

      I should have added that, while I dont have access during the meetings, I do as soon as I leave them (same for him) so I would have seen before I even left work. He has my number since we've needed to coordinate by cell a few times for work and other stuff. I usually have a protein bar or two in my desk for emergencies so I could have grabbed one of those and gone to meet them at the right restaurant.  Someone else decided on the change of restaurant and it must have slipped his mind that I wasn't coming back to my desk.
