Hi I'm New, The Forum, Not To Celiac!

Hello *waves*

I'm 15, and gluten free for six years, but only JUST found this forum!

I homeschool in Massachusetts, at least, that's where I live right now. We move, a lot, due to my dad's job. I tried public high school, but just wasn't for me. Why is it people need to tease you about your lunch that you bring from hoe every day, and that fact that you have vitiligo and thus your skin isn't all one color, that fact you move a lot on things like that? People can be so cruel!

I love to cook, which is very helpful! My mo is celiac as well as me. I invent recipes ALL the time! I.E. tonight i made fried chicken with ramono and garlic in it, YUM! It doesn't have that 'beany' taste!

Uh, I have two dogs and two cats, and, as of right now, 16 fish! I LOVE horses, I ride English style, and love jumping.

Can't think of anything else... uh...

Oh!

Fav movies: Butterfly Effect, A Beautiful Mind, Monty Python movies, National Treasure

Fav bands: Barenaked Ladies, Great Big Sea, Weird Al, Jack's Mannequin

Fav food: gluten-free pasta, french fries, gluten-free chicken noodle/rice soup

And I'm a TOTAL geek :)

Hey Tori

Glad that you FINALLY found us! :rolleyes:

We have lots of teens here and they love to chat. I'm glad that you love to cook and here on this site we have some really drop dead recipes. You have alot to explore here.

My daughters rode English also. They got involved in combined training and loved it. Girls and horses are special.

Well, welcome to us and glad to meet cha.

Wow! We have lots in common.

1.) I have a dog and cats (5 not 2 though)

2.) The Butterfly Effect is one of my fave movies, along with National Treasure and some of the Montie Python Movies

3.) BNL is like my favorite band, + weird al is awesome (I liked him even before white and nerdy came out)

4.) My favorite foods are exactly the same

5.) I also LOVE horses, and ride English, though I haven't ridden in a while due to my health. I used to be in Pony Club (I dont know if you've heard of it but they do jumping and English and lots more) I have 4 horses, but one of them is at a therapeutic riding center.

6.) I am a total geek, but I like Dr.Who better than stargate

Feel free to pm me

Just an old lady here but when I was in high school (seems like eons ago) I got picked on because I brought my own lunch as well..... I brought it because it was cheaper then buying one from the school and my family was poor.

Anyone can be cruel at times even the perfect people.... remember the expirience... when you see some poor soul on the street and have the opportunity to either make fun of them or help them... maybe you cant afford a quarter to help them buy something to eat but maybe you have a kind word instead, those cost nothing.

Weird Al still sings?!?!?!?! B) dang wouldn't have figured he was still around let alone making parodies still, lol

BNL yuppers like them (even if I am an old lady, lol)

3 dogs 2 cats (but just bought 9 acres so plan on expanding that number, lol and it will include a horse or 2 I am sure, lol)

Hi,

I'm new to the forum but not new to celiac disease as well. I was dianosed @ 6 and I am now 16. Hey, I'm homeschooled too! I was all of kindergarden, 1/2 of the first grade, then my family moved and found a really great Christian school, went there the second 1/2 of first grade and all of second grade, then from third grade on I have been homeschooled. I LOVE to cook as well. I must say that Rachel Ray is my favorite movie star :lol: My mom and I are gluten free, but my dad and brother aren't, so I cook both ways but lean more toward the gluten-free. I think the laugh is on those kids who were making fun of you because you brought your lunch, caf. food is really bad! Who wants mystery meat when you can eat homemade everyday?

      Diagnosed celiac for 1-2 months ago and everything makes me bloated.

      By Beverage · Posted

      I had a very rough month after diagnosis. No exaggeration, lost so much inflammatory weight, I looked like a bag of bones, underneath i had been literally starving to death. I did start feeling noticeably better after a month of very strict control of my kitchen and home. What are you eating for breakfast and lunch? I ignored my doc and ate oats, yes they were gluten free, but some brands are at the higher end of gluten free. Lots of celics can eat Bob's Red Mill gluten-free oats, but not me. I can now eat them, but they have to be grown and processed according to the "purity protocol" methods. I mail order them, Montana Gluten-Free brand. A food and symptoms and activities log can be helpful in tracking down issues. You might be totally aware, but I have to mention about the risk of airborne gluten. As the doc that diagnosed me warned . . Remember eyes, ears, nose, and mouth all lead to your stomach and intestines.  Are you getting any cross contamination? Airborne gluten? Any pets eating gluten (they eat it, lick themselves, you pet them...)? Any house remodeling? We live in an older home, always fixing something. I've gotten glutened from the dust from cutting into plaster walls, possibly also plywood (glues). The suggestions by many here on vitamin supplements also really helped me. I had some lingering allergies and asthma, which are now 99% gone. I was taking Albuterol inhaler every hour just to breathe, but thiamine in form of benfotiamine kicked that down to 1-2 times a day within a few days of starting it. Also, since cutting out inflammatory seed oils (canola, sunflower, grapeseed, etc) and cooking with real olive oil, avocado oil, ghee, and coconut oil, I have noticed even greater improvement overall and haven't used the inhaler in months! It takes time to weed out everything in your life that contains gluten, and it takes awhile to heal and rebuild your health. At first it's mentally exhausting, overwhelming, even obsessive, but it gets better and second nature.

      Protein or fat?

      By Jsingh · Posted

      Hi,  I care for my seven year old daughter with Celiac. After watching her for months, I have figured out that she has problem with two kinds of fats- animal fat and cooking oils. It basically makes her intestine sore enough that she feels spasms when she is upset. It only happens on days when she has eaten more fat than her usual every day diet. (Her usual diet has chia seeds, flaxseeds, and avocado/ pumpkin seeds for fat and an occasional chicken breast.) I stopped using cooking oils last year, and when I reintroduced eggs and dairy, both of which I had held off for a few months thinking it was an issue of the protein like some Celiac patients habe mentioned to be the case, she has reacted in the same fashion as she does with excess fats. So now I wonder if her reaction to dairy and eggs is not really because of protein but fat.   I don't really have a question, just wondering if anyone finds this familiar and if it gets better with time.  Thank you.

      High Cost of Gluten-Free Foods

      By Chanda Richard · Posted

      Hello, My name is Chanda and you are not the only one that gose through the same things. I have found that what's easiest for me is finding a few meals each week that last. I have such severe reactions to gluten that it shuts my entire body down. I struggle everyday with i can't eat enough it feels like, when I eat more I lose more weight. Make sure that you look at medication, vitamins and shampoo and conditioner also. They have different things that are less expensive at Walmart.

      Frequent nausea after gluten-free diet

      By petitojou · Posted

      Thank you so much! I saw some tips around the forum to make a food diary and now that I know that the community also struggles with corn, egg and soy, the puzzle pieces came together! Just yesterday I tried eating eggs and yes, he’s guilty and charged. Those there are my 3 combo nausea troublemakers. I’m going to adjust my diet ☺️ Also thank you for the information about MCAS! I’m from South America and little it’s talked about it in here. It’s honestly such a game changer now for treatment and recovery. I know I’m free from SIBO and Candida since I’ve been tested for it, but I’m still going to make a endoscopy to test for H. Pylori and Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). Thank you again!! Have a blessed weekend 🤍

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.
