I live in Central, SC, and have been looking for a group. I haven't found one yet. Maybe we could start our own?

not aware of any groups since I am not up there all the time. We have a house on hwy 11 outside Walhalla. If you haven't been to the new market up by the Cliff's communities (about 15 miles east of Walhalla) they have a better than average selection of Gluten Free Products.

I realize your message is pretty old but if you do find one in the Clemson area let me know please.

We have a Celiac Support Group that meets the second Thursday of each month, in Greenville, at the Earth Faire health food store, 7 - 8 PM. That's located at Pelham Road and I-85 North, it's Exit 54. Coming from the south, turn left off the exit onto Pelham Rd., cross over the interstate, go about 2 blocks and the Earth Faire shopping center is on the left.

That's a straight shot up I-85 from Seneca and Clemson. This group had it's second meeting on May 8th. There was good information and support, there. The next meeting will be June 12th.

In the Upstate, the Publix and the Ingles grocery stores print a list of all gluten free store brands. Makes it much easier to shop! The group is putting together a list of gluten-free/Friendly restaurants. Also doing lists for dietician, MD, etc., for medical support.

Hi LindaJean,

Thanks for the information. I have had 2 blood tests that show an indication for Celiac. I am working on getting a gastro appointment to follow up further. I am a little stressed out over the potential diagnosis so it is nice to know that there is a meeting nearby with people going through the same thing.

Could you please let me know when the next meeting will be?

I appreciate all the help I can get right now as I navigate through the newness of this. Thanks!

      Build muscle back feeling weak?

      I put on over 12kg by eating protein with every meal, 3 to 5 times a day. Eggs, Chicken, Tuna, Turkey etc. I stay away from too much red meat as it can be inflammatory. Scott is correct. I've come across a bunch of Coeliac PT's on Tiktok and Instagram. They all say the same thing, the key is getting enough protein and consistency.

      Build muscle back feeling weak?

      It's great to hear that eliminating gluten has helped alleviate symptoms like eye burning, which is a significant and positive change. The first and most important step is to ensure you're consuming enough protein throughout the day to support muscle repair and growth, which can be challenging with a busy schedule.

      suggest gluten free food

      Trader Joe's carries a good variety of affordable gluten-free foods like bagels, hamburger buns, pasta, etc. I like Franz Gluten Free bread, which is available at my local Costco. Food For Life and Little Northern Bakehouse (advertisers here) also make excellent gluten-free breads. Costco also sells gluten-free pizzas, crackers, gravy, etc.

      It's great to hear that eliminating gluten has helped alleviate symptoms like eye burning, which is a significant and positive change. The first and most important step is to ensure you're consuming enough protein throughout the day to support muscle repair and growth, which can be challenging with a busy schedule. Since you're already physically active at work, adding focused strength training just 2-3 times per week can make a major difference. Bodyweight exercises like squats, push-ups (modified if needed), and lunges, or using resistance bands at home, are excellent, efficient places to start. Remember, consistency with these short sessions and prioritizing post-workout recovery, including good sleep and hydration, are just as crucial as the workouts themselves. It's a smart, gradual process at any age.
