You make the veggies sound great. I started counting calories this week and it is hard cutting back. I am adding more fresh veggies, but salad is bad on my guts. I had some gluten-free chees puffs and read them as 1 calorie a piece then my son tells me today that I read it wrong and they are 5 a piece. Opps!

This recouperating is hard. I sit around, sleep, eat and watch TV. I see the dr. tomorrow hopefully I will be able to start my water aerobics class soon.

Anyone like Jicama? Only 45 caloris for a cup cubed.

Fresh summer fruit- I bought a box of peaches at the farmers market and my ds says "a yummy!"

Jicama rules, Blessings. :) I can't eat salad without immediately running to the powderroom after, too. :(

Fruit I seem to be fine with though. I just eat apples and pineapples and things with substance. (ah, peaches) lol

Things will get better though

good luck @ the dr!

I don't want to sound preachy, but while you're healing, you need to make sure you get enough good dietary fats. Like organic meats and avocado and olive oil and fish and stuff. A good percentage of the vitamins you need are "fat-soluble", which means you won't be able to digest them without some dietary fat, so you'll stay malnourished. Honestly, cutting back on calories should probably wait until you've had a chance to heal for a while. Just my two cents.

HI JNbunny

Thanks for the input. Mostly I am cutting back on the snack foods. Mainly from the list above.

Before I started my maintenance calories was about 2200 I'm aiming for 1400 but eating more like 1600-1700. I will make sure not to cut back to much for a while. I see my GI Sept 2 and will talk to him about it. Thanks so much.

Check out my thread on our Celiac Sprue Association mtg today. All the wonderful food ideas from a dietician in town. :P

sickchick,

What is your recipe for chocolate sorbet with chocolate chips?

GFinDC Veteran

Chunky applesauce with cinnamon, dried cranberries, a tablespoon of peanut butter, a tablespoon of Hershey's dry coco powder, and 2 minutes of nuking power. Remember to tap your foot during the nuking.

If you like shrimp these are two good ones:

spring rolls--

You cut up some cucumber, carrots and thaw some big shrimp. You add some spinach leaves and fresh cilantro, a little lime juice and some thai sweet sauce (you can make it with fresh orange juice, vinegar, sugar, bird's eye peppers, garlic and a little xantan gum). You arrange everything artfully in a tapioca rice wrapper (I use a double).

Dairy free, gluten free and very low carb. A guilt free treat!

Another favorite is shrimp-stuffed peppers--

You take some shrimp, mirin, soy sauce, cilantro and sesame oil and mix in a little corn starch so it sticks together. You can put some carrots in there too if you want. Then you stuff it into peppers that you cut in half, de-seed and de-rib. You can either bake or steam these for a lower fat version, or batter them with chickpea flour, egg whites beaten stiff, a bit of cream of tartar and a bit of baking soda and salt. If you batter them, you can fry them in olive oil. I like to use the long green peppers that are pretty hot-- the heat leaves a bit when cooked.

DFGF and low carb-- especially the baked/ steamed version.

I love Kind bars. I think that's what they're called. The Nut and Fruit delight is just that--delicious and good to have on hand when I'm at coffee hour after church where there is nothing gluten-free.

Here they are:

Snickers

Three Musketeers (I think gluten-free)

Pamela's Choc Chip Cookies

Pamela's Choc Cake

Pamela's Brownies

Brown Cow Maple yogurt

Quesadillas with corn tortillas

For those choco-holics as well as those looking for a DEVINE snack under 100calories, I created this last night and now I don't think I'll be able to go a night without it:

16oz near boiling water

1 pkg sugar free hot cocoa mix

1 TBS sugar free chocolate pudding powder

whisk well, it thickens perfectly into the most rich hot chocolate that tastes like it's 1000 calories

Not exactly a healthy snack, but Utz Sour Cream and Onion are gluten-free. At least, it says so on the bag.

      Hello, My 17 yr old daughter was diagnosed with celiac disease 2 yrs ago. She does not have gum disease and no history of cavities. Her dentist is recommending braces for her lower teeth but I read it may worsen gum recession or possibly increase cavity risk which I know are already issues for patients with celiac. Has anyone here had braces and did it cause any problems or issues with gum recession?  Her dentist seemed oblivious that celiac patients are at higher risk of gum disease /cavities. Her bottom teeth are crooked but are pretty hidden even when she smiles. Thank you!!

      This is a common experience across the board with various brands of gluten-free bread products. Prices go up, size goes down. Removal of the egg component may be for the purpose of cost-cutting related to bird flu supply shortages or it may be catering to those with egg allergy/sensitivity, fairly common in the celiac community.

      Living with Coeliac Disease since birth, Bread has always been an issue, never too nice, small slices and always overpriced, But Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread seemed to me to be an exception with it's large uniform 12 x 12cm slices that had the bounce, texture and taste of white bread even after toasting with no issue that it was also Milk Free. Unfortunately Sainsbury's have changed the recipe and have made it 'Egg Free' too and it has lost everything that made the original loaf so unique. Now the loaf is unevenly risen with 8 x 8cm slices at best, having lost it's bounce with the texture dense and cake like after toasting resembling nothing like White Bread anymore. Unsure as to why they have had to make it 'Egg Free' as the price is the same at £1.90 a loaf. Anyone else experiencing the same issue with it? - also any recommendations for White Bread that isn't prescription? / Tesco's / Asda's are ok but Sainsbury's was superior.

      Years  ago a friend and I drove north into Canada hoping to find a ski resort open in late spring,We were in my VW and found a small ski area near a small town and started up this gravelled road up a mountain. We  got about halfway up and got stuck in the mud. We tried everything we could think of but an hour later we were still stuck. Finally a pickup came down the road, laughed at our situation, then pulled the VW free of the mud. We followed him back to the ski area where where he started up the rope ski lift and we had an enjoyable hour of skiing and gave us a shot of aquavit  before we left.It was a great rescue.  In some ways this reminds me of your situation. You are waiting for a rescue and you have chosen medical practitioners to do it now or as soon as possible. As you have found out the med. experts have not learned how to help you. You face years of continuing to feel horrible, frustrated searching for your rescuer to save you. You can break away from from this pattern of thinking and you have begun breaking  away by using some herbs and supplements from doTerra. Now you can start trying some of the suggestions thatother Celiacs have written to your original posts.  You live with other people who eat gluten foods. Cross contamination is very possible. Are you sure that their food is completely separate from their food. It  is not only the gluten grains you need to avoid (wheat, barley, rye) but possibly oats, cows milk also. Whenever you fall back into that angry and frustrated way of thinking get up and walk around for a whild. You will learn ways to break that way of thinking about your problems.  Best wishes for your future. May you enjpy a better life.

      Thanks for responding. I researched further and Lindt Lindor chocolate balls do contain barely malt powder which contains gluten. I was surprised at all of the conflicting information I found when I checked online.
