I Really Haven't Disappeared Completely

Hey guys!

I know, i haven't been on in FOREVER like over a year probably, and i feel bad cause i've missed so much.

I think it really has been like a year since i've actually talked to everyone, sad...

So here's an update

I'm at university of puget sound, great amazing school, that is also REALLY good with gluten-free stuff...plus i've got a kitchen downstairs in my dorm so i can cook/bake gluten-free stuff there if i want gluten-free stuff...

I had the redo of my jaw surgery on August 4, 2008, a week before i started school, got discharged from the hospital like 1 week before school started, it was really hard in the beginning to be on the liquid diet dealing with orientation activities etc. But now i'm back to basically eating normally now...

School is great, crazy amout of work, just got done with midterms WOOHOO! and i'm going to visit my sister in portland for the weekend for fall break, gonna go pig out on gluten-free food there (corbett/hawthorne fish house, grolla etc...)

Just posting this to say hi, and again apologies that i haven't been online nearly as much...School takes priority and it's been a lot of work this year so far, 1/2 way done with first semester of college!! yay hahah

how has everyone been?

<3 m

      I agree with @trents and wiping down the spot you eat your lunch, and eating the food your brought from home should be safe for even sensitive celiacs. Gluten can jump on your food, so it would likely better better for you to continue eating where you prefer.

      I would think that as long as you keep your food on a wrapper or on a paper plate you would not be at risk for cross contamination. You may be overthinking it all which is common for those in the first year of the celiac journey. But let me ask you. Are you feeling self-conscious about having a celiac diagnosis? I notice the term "isolated" in your thread title. Do you fear being shunned? I offer this video clip for your consideration:

      I’m worried about cross contamination, as people don’t clear up properly. I take my own lunch in a packed lunch box with my own cutlery, plate etc and wash it all at home everyday rather than using the schools communal options. There is always crumbs or food left out for us to share on tables etc.

      Welcome to the forum, @Tanya177! Help us understand why you don't eat with the other staff members at the present time. I'm assuming you already pack your own lunch rather than eating school cafeteria food. Surely there are other staffers who bring their own lunches. How would this be different if you did not have celiac disease?
