Well Guhlia,

Were they good? :D

They were fabulous. I would have had them again for breakfast only that getting-to-work-on-time thing got in the way.

If I ever get a waffle maker - those are next.

If you get a waffle maker, make sure you get a decent one. Some of the ultra-cheapies don't cook the waffles evenly. I got a GE and I love mine. It was relatively inexpensive at about $18. I make a huge batch of waffles on the weekend and then freeze them so I can have quick breakfasts during the week. It's definitely worthwhile for us because my daughter generally wakes up starving.

As far as cravings go... Today I am majorly craving pickels. I think I am likely going to sit here and eat the whole jar in one sitting. Blech. I just can't stop myself. Thank God I only bought one jar! :rolleyes:

Ooohhh... And fruit and cream waffles and bagels with cream cheese. Can't seem to get enough of either of them.

You mean those in Angie's avatar?? OMG I am going to make those...... :rolleyes:

M&Ms

In Australia M&Ms have wheat starch :(

Put some money in my paypal account and I'll send them to you. ;)

Nachos or Buffalo Wild Wings...

or Skyline Chili

or Lil Smokies...

we can eat Lil Smokies??? but don't they have MSG?

Okay: binges and cravings? Trader Joe's Rice Pudding - - holy cow. I eat a whole container at one sitting :ph34r: once or twice a week. And, their Spicy Soy Flax Seed corn tortilla chips. Half a bag at a time. But having a prob w/ flax, so had to cut down. :(

Angel food cake is delicious with whip cream and crushed pinapple mixed in it and used as a frosting.

Also, if you are having people over, angel food caked diced in bite size portions, then a bowl of strawberries and whip cream to spoon over it :P Yum!

You are all comming up with some GREAT craving foods............nice!

I had to cave in and go buy my rice pudding to go with my peanutbutter chocolate chip cookies. I'm home sick today :( I had to go buy 7-up so I figured why not lol Nothing else sounds good to eat anyways.........darn sinus infections.

On the subject of little smokies and the msg questions. MSG isn't a problem in terms of gluten. It is gluten free, however many people avoid it for other reasons. Hillshire farms little smokies are great and gluten free. AWESOME when put into the crock pot with a bottle of sweet baby ray's bbq sauce mmm

After bronco's suggestion of the chili and somebody elses nacho craving. I am now craving chili cheese tater tots. Make the tater tots or fries......top with chili and then cheese mmmmm Geesh people!

And my favorite breakfast--sliced banana, fresh blueberries, sliced almonds, cinnamon and pure maple syrup drizzled over the top. So good....

I have to agree about Angie's waffles--those look fantastic! Soon as I can, I'm trying them.

I do the same thing when I eat at Picazzos in Tempe. I literally call people to tell them I am eating "pizza that tastes like pizza".

:lol: I don't call people, but last time I was at Beau Jo's in Colorado I made my friend take a picture of me, so I would have evidence that I ate real pizza from a real pizza place :ph34r:

Sometimes when I eat gluten free stuff that looks and tastes like the real stuff I feel like I'm cheating and have to fight feeling guilty. Also I'll have dreams that I'm eating bread or cookies and wake up horrified. lol

I could go for a chile dog. I'd probably have three and be thirsty all night.

Breyers ice cream --- "Take Two" variety with orange sherbet and vanilla ice cream ---- AND the Peanut Butter Tracks flavor. (Edited to emphasize: NOT TOGETHER IN THE SAME BOWL - ICK!)

Granny smith apples and grapes with slices of cheddar cheese (a nice glass of white wine makes it even better!)

glutino pretzels - I believe I'm heavily addicted.

Tinkyada with butter and grated parmesan (not too healthy, but Yum!)

Yoplait French Vanilla or White Chocolate Raspberry Yogurt

Gee, guess I'm hungry

georgie Enthusiast

Coke is gluten-free!!

I crave nachos with cheddar cheese. Mmmmm. It may be gluten-free, but I still can't have it because of the cheese.

The other day I was craving nachos like crazy, so I got some tostitos, all the stuff to make chili and some cheese and made myself some awesome nachos!

Cupakes!!! Right now I am craving namaste chocolate cake mix with Pillsbury vanilla frosting.

Mmmm Chili with tons of cheese sounds awesome today. It has been snowing most of the day and it's soooo cold. Maybe tomorrow I will make chili to warm me up!! Good idea.

AMC movie nachos are gluten-free, made by Frito-Lay. Sometimes I will pick an AMC to go to, then the movie, just cause I want movie nachos.

to let them know I was eating a pretzel.

Please tell me I am not the only person that will go into a movie theatre just to get popcorn and not actually go to a movie?!!!!

That sounds good!

I'm still craving nachos and now I'm craving pudding. I was a chipaholic so I crave chips as well, especially all dressed and ketchup.

      You might consider asking for a referral to a RD (Registered Dietician) to help with food choices and planning a diet. Even apart from any gluten issues, you will likely find there are some foods you need to avoid because of the shorter bowel but you may also find that your system may make adjustments over time and that symptoms may improve.
    • Ello
      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.
