Julie, I got reactions from all the WF BH stuff I tried. It was all very yummy though. I had the corn bread, cherry pie, sandwhich bread and the banana bread. OMG was the banana bread good! There is so much in the ingredients to react to though. I think the biggest one for me is cornstarch....I think its enemy # 1...also eggs, baking powder, chocolate, nuts, soy flour, concentrated lemon and grape juice..etc. Lots of stuff for me to react to. :(

The pizza bread, muffins and brownies look so delicious...wish I would have tried them. I had another relevation...need to post it on the OMG thread...sometime today or tomorrow. I'm having a somewhat busy week.

I bought Pamela cookies....they'll probably do me in but I had a moment of weakness at WF last night. I've reacted to all her cookies in the past but they were all the chocolate and nut filled ones. This time I got lemon shortbread. I've never seen the brownies. :huh:

Oh....still Racheling the EnerG bread....about a loaf a day. :o

I'm feeling pretty good. B)

I guess it depends on *what* I'm Racheling....and I seem to be ok with what I'm eating right now. :)

Good luck with the cookies Rachel, I had the chocolate chunk chip ones last week, or the week before, and I didn't feel great, but it wasn't too bad. I like the shortbread ones, I usually, or when I was eating them, got the butter shortbread.

The WFBH brownies and chocolate chip cookies, and the ginger cookies, are to die for!!! Very good, and like fresh baked, soft, chewy. I also tried the pecan pie, banana bread, and lemon poppy bread, I agree all good- but I wish they didn't use soy flour dang it, and some of the other problem ingredients you mentioned.

The Pamela's Brownies is a mix. Super easy to make, just mix in oil and water and eggs. I love them because they are so gooey and yummy and chocolate-y :lol: I can get away with eating them once in a while, but not too often.

Look forward to your scientificness in the omg thread :)

yum, I am making Pamela's brownies today - might let the kids have some too! :lol:

Need the choc cause I sense the dreaded PMS is around the corner, must stock up on choc now - maybe as preventative measure? :D

I love those brownies, too. I make them with coconut oil! Yum! Someone on another thread mentioned using marshmallow fluff for frosting!!! I can't wait to try them ... wish Morgan were here, she loves to bake!

Julie,

So far so good with the raw cheese. It may be something you would be able to add to your diet on occassion.

Good Andrea, I am glad you are tolerating the raw cheese well :) I am on a roll going without dairy, I hate to get it started again, even with the raw- cause then I don't know if I could stop, I love cheese so much.

Oooh , that sounds good.

That marshmallow fluff I think would KILL me though :lol:

Yeah, Morgan, where are you?? Don't leave us hanging, wondering about your first day away at school.

I remember when I went away, exciting and scary all at the same time. I hope you are getting all settled in and having fun :)

Enjoy them, they will get the job done, so chocolate-y...

Look what we started, now I am craving the dang brownies!

Yea, she hasn't been on my space or answered her phone either. She must be having a blast ... there were a lot of hotties around there yesterday ... she's probably busy with people "in person"!!!

The Dave,

Thanks for the explanation of racing. I just attached the link because I didn't know where to begin to try & explain it all to someone.

Excuse me Madame President. What CAN you have? I have a super easy fool-proof Banana bread recipe. It's fool-proof because every time I make it it turns out great.

I don't want to post a recipe you can't try.

Linda,

I wouldn't mind the recipe. :D I can't do soy but that is easily fixed. :)

morganb Newbie

Why would you do that! hehe, good luck!

bc I felt guilty about all the sugar I had eaten the past few days :ph34r:

Hello everybody--

Congratulations, Jessica! You have one of the most important jobs in the world.

How's the sugarless life, Morgan?

Adorable picture, Andrea!

Have you started school, Molly?

Leah

Well I did pretty good for one day Now I should try two days

Is there such a thing as brain fog for no reason?

Last night I got the kids their dinner and had mine in the oven, with the oven off, so it would keep warm. Since we ran errands yesterday, Seth didn't get his full afternoon nap because he fell asleep about 20 minutes from home. Fed him his dinner and then fed him again an hour later to get him to bed (an hour ealier than normal). Got all the kids in bed and came back out to the computer. About 9:30 I started thinking "I'm hungry" so I grabbed a Lara bar. Mitch got home around 10 or so. About 10:30 I told him I was hungry and didn't know why since I had had dinner about 4 hours before.

I went to bed around 12 and was laying there doing my mental check....oven/stove off......did I even eat dinner. I don't remember getting the spaghetti out of the oven. I got out of bed and went to the oven and there was my plate of spaghetti. NO WONDER I WAS SO HUNGRY! I grabbed a snack and will have the spaghetti (crunchy as it may be) in a little bit. :unsure: I still haven't eaten today.

Just thought I'd rely an amusing story. Now you all know why I appreciate that my wonderful hubby makes sure I get food on the weekend.

:lol::lol::lol: We used to do that before we moved....but with our aga, the food was still eatable....unless it was in there for more than one day or was in one of the hotter ovens :blink:

Awww.....you must be missing her already.

She was only going off sugar for one day?? :unsure:

For some reason I thought it was gonna be longer than that.

Are you kidding!!!! I can't handle more than one day of this...I have to ease myself into it :)

No, she just wanted to do it for one day. I think she just felt bad for all the sugar she ate in North Carolina and the meringues she devoured when we got back. She always feels better when she eats healthy, so I sense this is just the beginning of getting back to less junk food.

We JUST got back from dropping her off ... I'll miss her in about five minutes! I'm so used to her going over there for work a few days per week, it will take some time for me to really realize she's over there for more than a couple days! It's tough having them grow up! Especially when they're so sweet.

I'm working on getting back to eating healthy. It's getting close. I can't just jump into it, I work on it little by little. I made a huge mistake today though :angry: Remember how I was getting off dairy to see if I was allergic to it. I was going to get off of it for two weeks and test gluten a couple weeks later and dairy a couple weeks after that. Well, it's only been about 6 days and I completely forgot about the dairy part. I had cheese with my dinner. Now I have to start all over <_<:(:angry:

Well, I see Morgan must be really busy ... she didn't even post here!!! :D On the one hand it's exciting to see the fruit of the years you spent raising a child, and see them moving on to their more independent life. On the other, it's sad to see them grow up. And, am I really this OLD????

She's about three hours away. When we moved, I decided to keep going to the same salon that I've gone to for years, the one where Morgan works, and is near IU ... so I'll see her every four to six weeks!! If she weren't going to school there, I would have found someone here to do my hair!!

Morgan, did you find out how to get your food? (When I left her, she didn't know how to get her already paid for food ... neither did her rooommate!).

I found my food :P

You guys are sending kids off to college.... and here I am, celebrating my son's FIRST BIRTHDAY!!!!

My little guy will be 'officially' 1 at 10:48!!

My boss took her daughter to college yesterday. She'll be back on Monday, she took today and tomorrow off to grieve.

With my daughter, I'm actually starting with "preschool" basics. If she progresses on to K stuff (which I feel she will...she's brilliant... ) - we'll see how she does. More than likely, she'll start school IN kindergarten next year. She'll help us make that decision the closer we get to the end of the school year.

Happy 1st Birthday!!!!

Well I didn't get to get on here yesterday bc....I just got moved in. And then I got my internet registration for campus thingy this morning before I went to work. I ran some errands, ate with some random friendly people and then got on here. Oh and last night, I wandered around with some of the people on my floor. I like it, I'm still getting settled, but yes I miss my family :(

Oh!!!!! and my rommate's Dad has Celiac, so she'll completely understand if I request something "weird" with the fridge or something :D

Now where did my other quotes go??? Oh well, i know there were more but I have things to do. Don't worry I'm not leaving Rachelville :D

Why would you do that! hehe, good luck!

Hi MO!!!

So, how did the dairy make you feel? I mean, you were off it for 6 days, so you may have felt a difference from it.

morganb Newbie

Holy Cow!!!!!!! It's no wonder it took so long to post that comment!!!!! Is that a record for the longest post ever????

I haven't felt a difference. I don't know if it matters, but I didn't have much :unsure:

Linda,

I wouldn't mind the recipe. :D I can't do soy but that is easily fixed. :)

No soy so no problem. Recipe section or here or pm? I'm at work right now, so I'm aftraid you'll have to wait until tomorrow when the boys are done with the computer so I can have a turn. FYI, it's from the Incredible Edible Gluten Free Food for Kids cookbook.

I need to put your picture in the other chair, then it will be almost like you're home, except that I had to cook my own dinner tonight ... Dad took care of the kids for me.

I didn't tell you, but we went to Bloomingfood's for dinner ... I bought a rice dream ice cream bar, read the ingredients three times, then took a bite ... I saw a cookie in it! It was the most poorly labeled ingredients list I ever saw! It said Ingredients, then had a list, then under that it said cookie ingredients, then chocolate ingredients! It didn't even mention that the first list was the "ice cream" ingredients! It looked like the full list! Anyway, I spit it out, then went to the bathroom and rinsed my mouth out really well. I don't know if I was glutened since I'm still recovering from the previous one. The first ingredient on the chocolate was barley! YIKES! I started crying. :( Not obvious to everyone ... but Dad knew.

It was the most poorly labeled ingredients list I ever saw! It said Ingredients, then had a list, then under that it said cookie ingredients, then chocolate ingredients! It didn't even mention that the first list was the "ice cream" ingredients! It looked like the full list! Anyway, I spit it out, then went to the bathroom and rinsed my mouth out really well. I don't know if I was glutened since I'm still recovering from the previous one. The first ingredient on the chocolate was barley! YIKES! I started crying. :( Not obvious to everyone ... but Dad knew.

*tear* I'm soooo sorry that happened :(

Carla, I am so sorry!!! I'm so glad you caught it on first bite. Hopefully it won't affect you adversely.

:lol: Morgan

I think it is your replies x 3 (or double, not sure?)

More like 4 or 5 x. :lol::lol:

That's great that you have a roomie that will understand your need to be gluten free.

So glad that you are doing well and I understand about missing your family....especially as close as you are.

Cheese.....oops. :blink:

Oh, Carla, what a bummer about the ice cream! I hope you got rid of all the gluten, but how maddening!

Morgan, congratulations on your first day & finding the food (very important!)-- sorry about the cheese, but I bet if you go back to no dairy it won't really be square one, especially if there wasn't much of it.

sorry to be nosey, but what school are you at morgan? and carla, you didn't move her in? or did you?

Oh it's not nosey...I don't really care. I'm going to Indiana University. And yes, Mom helped move me in...but I unloaded everything

No soy so no problem. Recipe section or here or pm? I'm at work right now, so I'm aftraid you'll have to wait until tomorrow when the boys are done with the computer so I can have a turn. FYI, it's from the Incredible Edible Gluten Free Food for Kids cookbook.

Here is fine, then others can use it if they want. I have the Big Book of Gluten Free Recipes that I got online. It has banana bread recipes which I haven't tried yet. I think Annalise Roberts does too. I always like to compare recipes.

She's at Indiana University, we moved her in yesterday, it's about 3 hours from here. We used to live there, so we're all familiar with town ...

Look at your post and you will understand, there are multiple repeats.

I wanted to say in my last post, I'm so glad your first few days have gone well for you :)

The board is acting funny for me, don't know if it is just my computer or for everyone?

I'm sorry Carla. :( I hope you don't have any lengthening effects with still getting over the weekend.

      I've been buying my seeds and nuts from Prana Organics for a number of years because the products have been GFCO-certified. I just got a new order delivered of their flax and sunflower seeds, and it turns out that they are no longer GFCO-certified. Instead, it just has a generic "Gluten Free" symbol on the package. I reached out to them to ask what protocols/standards/testing they have in place. The person that wrote back said that they are now certifying their gluten free status in-house, but that she couldn't answer my questions related to standards because the person with that info was on vacation. Not very impressed, especially since it still says on their website that they are GFCO-certified. Buyer beware!

      Hi @Dizzyma I note what @trents has commented about you possibly posting from the UK.  Just to let you know that am a coeliac based in the UK, so if that is the case, do let me know if can help you with any questions on the NHS provision for coeliacs.    If you are indeed based in the UK, and coeliac disease is confirmed, I would thoroughly recommend you join Coeliac UK, as they provide a printed food and drink guide and also a phone app which you can take shopping with you so you can find out if a product is gluten free or not. But one thing I would like to say to you, no matter where you live, is you mention that your daughter is anxious.  I was always a bit of a nervous, anxious child but before my diagnosis in mid-life my anxiety levels were through the roof.   My anxiety got steadily better when I followed the gluten-free diet and vitamin and mineral deficiencies were addressed.  Anxiety is very common at diagnosis, you may well find that her anxiety will improve once your daughter follows a strict gluten-free diet.

      Welcome to the celic.com community @Dizzyma! I'm assuming you are in the U.K. since you speak of your daughter's celiac disease blood tests as "her bloods".  Has her physician officially diagnosed her has having celiac disease on the results of her blood tests alone? Normally, if the ttg-iga blood test results are positive, a follow-up endoscopy with biopsy of the small bowel lining to check for damage would be ordered to confirm the results of "the bloods". However if the ttg-iga test score is 10x normal or greater, some physicians, particularly in the U.K., will dispense with the endoscopy/biopsy. If there is to be an endoscopy/biopsy, your daughter should not yet begin the gluten free diet as doing so would allow healing of the small bowel lining to commence which may result in a biopsy finding having results that conflict with the blood work. Do you know if an endoscopy/biopsy is planned? Celiac disease can have onset at any stage of life, from infancy to old age. It has a genetic base but the genes remain dormant until and unless triggered by some stress event. The stress event can be many things but it is often a viral infection. About 40% of the general population have the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% actually develop celiac disease. So, for most, the genes remain dormant.  Celiac disease is by nature an autoimmune disorder. That is to say, gluten ingestion triggers an immune response that causes the body to attack its own tissues. In this case, the attack happens in he lining of the small bowel, at least classically, though we now know there are other body systems that can sometimes be affected. So, for a person with celiac disease, when they ingest gluten, the body sends attacking cells to battle the gluten which causes inflammation as the gluten is being absorbed into the cells that make up the lining of the small bowel. This causes damage to the cells and over time, wears them down. This lining is composed of billions of tiny finger-like projections and which creates a tremendous surface area for absorbing nutrients from the food we eat. This area of the intestinal track is where all of our nutrition is absorbed. As these finger-like projections get worn down by the constant inflammation from continued gluten consumption before diagnosis (or after diagnosis in the case of those who are noncompliant) the efficiency of nutrient absorption from what we eat can be drastically reduced. This is why iron deficiency anemia and other nutrient deficiency related medical problems are so common in the celiac population. So, to answer your question about the wisdom of allowing your daughter to consume gluten on a limited basis to retain some tolerance to it, that would not be a sound approach because it would prevent healing of the lining of her small bowel. It would keep the fires of inflammation smoldering. The only wise course is strict adherence to a gluten free diet, once all tests to confirm celiac disease are complete.

      Hi all, I have so many questions and feel like google is giving me very different information. Hoping I may get some more definite answers here. ok, my daughter has been diagnosed as a coeliac as her bloods show anti TTG antibodies are over 128. We have started her  on a full gluten free diet. my concerns are that she wasn’t actually physically sick on her regular diet, she had tummy issues and skin sores. My fear is that she will build up a complete intolerance to gluten and become physically sick if she has gluten. Is there anything to be said for keeping a small bit of gluten in the diet to stop her from developing a total intolerance?  also, she would be an anxious type of person, is it possible that stress is the reason she has become coeliac? I read that diagnosis later in childhood could be following a sickness or stress. How can she have been fine for the first 10 years and then become coeliac? sorry, I’m just very confused and really want to do right by her. I know a coeliac and she has a terrible time after she gets gluttened so just want to make sure going down a total gluten free road is the right choice. thank you for any help or advise xx
