Hi :(

This is my first time asking a question,i had a list or i should say pages of what foods i could eat. I have celiac disease have been diagnosed about 2 and a half yrs. ago.I am just still surviving on the little foods i know i can eat.Because my memory is so bad i can't remember the foods i can and can't have.I lost the papers i had to go by.The thing i do remember is i can have margerine but it has to be imperial,i know there are others i can have i think. Does any body know where i can get this information?,it is not in the safe foods list i checked.Or does anybody know what other kinds of margerine and butter i can have.Any idea's on foods would be a great help.I am on disability and really don't have much money,i have no car and their is no close store,so any idea's on how to obtain food and what kind would really help.I was at 121 lbs. went down to 83 lbs. back up to 118 lbs. now am down to 105 and can't get anywhere.I loose weight just thinking about it.My metabolisim is so high it is hard to put weight on and keep it there.So any help on safe foods and the margrine thing would help.I am always stuck when i go to dine out,i know no other margerines or butter.Thank You for any help you's might give me.

The Clan Thompson Smarlist shows the following margarines as gluten-free:

Blue Bonnet Regular (Quarters)

Fleischmans Original and Unsalted Sticks

The above are made by ConAgra

Also:

HyVee Corn Oil Quarters and Vegetable Oil Quarters AND Bowl.

There are others on the list like Denny's Liquid or Whipped

Safeway/Vons/Domicks/Randalls Margerine (all)

McDonald's Margarine

Price Chopper Margarine and Spreads

All pure butters are gluten-free - salted and unsalted.

As ALWAYS: READ THE LABEL BEFORE EATING.

You must be in Canada, because Imperial is only sold there now (according to their website) - and it doesn't have any info on Gluten, that I can find.

      how much gluten do I need to eat before blood tests?

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after eating them. If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back...

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after  eating them.  If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back or avoid them. for this reason I avoid dairy and eggs.  So far this has worked well for me.  oh, I have some of Bob's Red Mill Mighty Tasty Hot cereal and I love it! it's hard to find but I will be looking for more.  for the next few weeks I'm going to be concentrating on whole fresh fruits and veggies and beans and nuts and seeds. I'll have to find out if grains are truly necessary in our diet. I buy brown rice pasta but only eat that maybe once a month at most. Never liked quinoa. And all the other exotic sounding grains seem to be time consuming to prepare. Something to look at later. I love beans and to me they provide the heft and calories that make me feel full for a lot longer than a big bowl of broccoli or other veggies. I can't even tolerate the plant milks right now.  I have reached out to the endo for guidance regarding calcium intake - she wants me to consume 1000mgs from food daily and I'm not able to get to more than 600mgs right now.  not supposed to use a supplement until after my next round of testing for hyperparathyroidism.   thanks again- you seem to know quite a bit about celiac.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @SilkieFairy! You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) as opposed to celiac disease. They share many of the same symptoms, especially the GI ones. There is no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out.

      By trents · Posted

      Under the circumstances, your decision to have the testing done on day 14 sounds very reasonable. But I think by now you know for certain that you either have celiac disease or NCGS and either way you absolutely need to eliminate gluten from your diet. I don't think you have to have an official diagnosis of celiac disease to leverage gluten free service in hospitals or institutional care and I'm guessing your physician would be willing to grant you a diagnosis of gluten sensitivity (NCGS) even if your celiac testing comes up negative. Also, you need to be aware that oats (even gluten free oats) is a common cross reactor in the celiac community. Oat protein (avenin) is similar to gluten. You might want to look at some other gluten free hot  breakfast cereal alternatives.
