If you are a celiac and you have been on the diet for a while, AND you feel good... what are you eating? I just want to know what foods you regularly eat, what foods you avoid, and why. I know I'm such a pain in the a@#! Thanks!

A typical day in my life.....

B'fast - Cream of Rice or Bob's Red Mill Mighty Tasty Hot Cereal w/brown sugar and milk

Glass of OJ

Cup of Coffee

On the weekends I make eggs, bacon or French toast w/gluten-free bread

Snack - Yogurt

Lunch - Corn Tortilla w/Ham or Turkey, Lettuce, Tomato or

Soup and Mary's Gone Crackers crackers or

Green Salad w/Chicken strips or

Peanut Butter and rice crackers

Snack - Piece of Fruit and a cup of Coffee or Tea

Dinner - Chicken or Steak, Potato or Rice, Vegetable, Green Salad or

Tinkyada pasta and Sauce, Green Salad or

Homemade Soup or Chili, Green Salad

and a few favorite recipes I make in my crock pot.

The only thing that has really bothered me is artificial sweeteners. I used to use Splenda and don't anymore. I just use regular sugar in moderation. And I was lactose intolerant for 30 years. I have always used Lactaid milk and pills when eating dairy, but I notice that the lactose doesn't bother me as much as it used to.

Hope this helps.

I can't have corn, potatoes, soy or dairy as well. Dairy really gets me--I can sometimes have bits of the others and not get very sick. I've pretty much given up sugar except for my sacred daily chocolate. Here is a typical day.

breakfast: rice protein smoothie with banana, nut butter, almond milk

herbal tea

I have rice toast with nut butter and fruit spread on weekends

lunch: rice cheese, fruit, coconut milk yogurt, muffins (baked in large batches and frozen), nuts (my emergency oops I overslept lunch), Snapeas

I don't have much time to eat or I would eat leftovers.

dinner: homemade soups, meat and cooked vegetables, rice, yams; rice pasta and meat/veg, rice/meat/veg stir fries (Thai Kitchen curry is gluten-free), scrambled eggs

snacks: bean dip with coconut yogurt and cashew butter "cheese" and guacamole--Lundberg rice chips

dairy free gluten-free dark chocolate

homemade hummus

coconut milk ice cream (So Delicious brand--special occasions)

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.

      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.
