welcome

And by all means tell us what you are craving we all can help. Here is a way to look at your new diet I know this thought has alway helped me. I pretend I've had to move to another place in the world & I can't get my old staples of indgredients so I have to start subbing other things for the things I've alway known in my life.I know this sounds corny but I have others who are trying to lose weigh and they to say it works. I guess its mind over matter.... I had to keep telling myself that this is the way it is.

My best advice is to buy several gluten free cookbooks. This is what made it totally easier for me. I bought the Incredible Edible Gluten Free Food for Kids book by Sheri Sanderson and the Gluten-Free Gourmet cooks Fast and Healthy by Bette Hagman. These two books have saved my sanity. I try to order a new book once a month because they each have at least one phenomenal recipe in them. One good gluten free recipe is SOOOOOO worth the cost of the book.

I totally understand! I was diagnosed in June and have never in my life wanted a pizza so bad. I have allready had lots of substitutions including gluten-free pizza crust but it is not the same it is just going to take some time to adjust.

This forum is great for info an all sorts of things. I don't post very much but I am doing a lot of reading.

Good luck to you.

I'm pretty new too, & I've found that I sometimes crave foods I never even liked! The lure of forbidden fruit, I suppose. What really helps me is getting on this board & reading the threads that show how much better everyone feels when they have been gluten-free long enough to heal. When I'm tempted I think of all the ways gluten has hurt me & all my hopes for restored health.

Most folks say that the cravings do fade as you continue to stick to the diet. And definitely, do learn to cook gluten-free versions of your faves. They may not be quite the same, but it will help you make the transition. Carol Fenster & Annalise Roberts are great resources as well.

Hang in there!

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.

      Please do more research before you settle on nicotine. Dr. Paul New house is a psychiatrist.  His latest study involves the effect of nicotine patches on Late Life Depression which has reached no long term conclusions about the benefits.   Effects of open-label transdermal nicotine antidepressant augmentation on affective symptoms and executive function in late-life depression https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39009312/   I'm approaching the subject from the Microbiologist's point of view which shows nicotine blocks Thiamine B1 uptake and usage:   Chronic Nicotine Exposure In Vivo and In Vitro Inhibits Vitamin B1 (Thiamin) Uptake by Pancreatic Acinar Cells https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26633299/   While supplementation with thiamine in the form Benfotiamine can protect from damage done by  nicotine: Benfotiamine attenuates nicotine and uric acid-induced vascular endothelial dysfunction in the rat https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18951979/   I suggest you study the beneficial effects of Thiamine (Benfotiamine and TTFD) on the body and mental health done by Dr. Derrick Lonsdale and Dr. Chandler Marrs.  Dr. Lonsdale had studied thiamine over fifty years.   Hiding in Plain Sight: Modern Thiamine Deficiency https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8533683/ I suggest you read their book Thiamine Deficiency Disease, Dysautonomia, and High Calorie Malnutrition.     Celiac Disease is a disease of malabsorption causing malnutrition.  Thiamine and benfotiamine: Focus on their therapeutic potential https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10682628/

      Thanks for your response.  Everything you mentioned he is and has been doing.  Tobacco is not the same as nicotine.  Nicotine, in the form of a patch, does not cause gastrointestinal irritation.  Smoking does. He is not smoking.  Please do your research before stating false information. Dr. Paul Newhouse has been doing research on nicotine the last 40 years at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.
