Morning- bowl of Gorilla Munch and a hard boiled egg

Snack- some almonds while i drive and an apple

Lunch- 6oz chicken breast and half cup of mixed veggies

snack- Banana

Dinner- another piece of 6oz chicken, more veggies

After dinner 9:00pm i usualy have a bowl of cereal.

I always drink just water and occassionally a soda. Too much sugar kind of upsets my stomach.

This is not very many calories, and i work out and burn probably 400 cal at the gym.

What can i do to bump up my caloric intake??????????

Fruit on your cereal. More nuts during snack time. A little olive oil on you veggies. If you aren't dairy free, some full fat yogurt for a snack. Some black beans on your veggies.

I used Carnation Instant Breakfast Powder, check and make sure you know which ones are still gluten free as I haven't used it in a while. I know the chocolate malt at the ready to drink were not at the time I used it. I added a one double strength serving a couple times a day for an extra 1000 calories. If you are avoiding milk this would not work for you.

How about peanut butter on rice cakes? I was not a fan of rice cakes before going gluten-free, but I do eat them now with PB & strawberry preserves. I use the Lundberg Brand. If you don't like those, how about PB on your apple? Can you do dairy? I would add cheese to your chicken breast and maybe have a snack of cheese or cheese sticks (like string cheese). I second the Carnation Instant Breakfast..DS drinks the Rich Milk Chocolate powder in his milk every morning.

Good luck!

Definately increase your nut intake. Almonds and walnuts( unsalted) are the best.

Lara bars all have about 200 cals each and go good with fruit to complement a snack.

Mix some Enjoy Life Cranberry Crunch cereal in with yogurt.

Avacodos. If you know how to make guacamole, about a half cup with some gluten free crackers is about 300 easy calories.

Sherbert is a good low fat, high calorie substitute. You can also mix it with protein powder, fruit juice, and/or more fresh fruit for a high calorie, yet healthy shake.

And grapes are also a fairly high caloric fruit.

If you're already doing almonds, just doubling the amount will increase your caloric intake immensely...I have the opposite problem--I have to keep my weight from creeping up, and have such trouble limiting my nuts! They add up very quickly--especially almonds. Throw some raisins in with them. As was already said, grapes are a highish-calorie fruit. And they go great with nuts, as do sesame seeds, which are calorie-dense as well. Good luck!

Drink "Ensure" with your snacks (the chocolate is pretty good - chilled).

Add some carbs to your lunch and dinner. How about some rice or baked potato?

hi can you handle dairy and red meat? im a runner so i burn a lot of calories, i can handle dairy so i eat yogurt, cottage cheeze, full fat milk (my family is thrilled to have that in the house) im also using butter now instead of margerine. im a red meat eater not every day but a couple times a week, and i allways eat after i work out. go onto some of the websites that sell gluten-free food there is lots of snack stuff, as well as peanut butter can help. hope this helps, GOOD LUCK

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      By sleuth · Posted

      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.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      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.

      Fighting for a name

      By Jmartes71 · Posted

      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.
