This is primarily for those residing in the UK...

Waitrose offer over 2300 gluten free items on their online / home delivery site, but was really fed up when I found that they don't deliver to my postcode area yet. However, their "sister" site Ocado does deliver, but on their website, they only offer 300 items...

I am slightly confused as the Ocado delivery driver will have to go to the Waitrose store to collect the groceries for delivery then come and deliver it to my home address. Why can't I select from the 2300 items for delivery instead of the limited 300 on the delivery companies website?

I can go into any Waitrose store, but I have to hunt down every aisle in order to find the gluten free items, whereas shopping online, I type it in the search engine and it brings up every item. Makes life 99.9% easier, especially as it's hard enough going through this radical diet change, without the stress of having to spend an extra hour or so, going through the aisles, checking the ingredient list on every product I want :(

Does anyone have an insight into this, or any information? I have emailed Waitrose customer services to enquire why, but as yet, have had no response.

Talk about getting my hopes up :(

The struggle continues!

      Healthy diet leading to terrible bloating

      I had double hernia laparoscopic surgery two months go to repair both an Inguinal hernia (a recent home project injury) and an umbilical hernia (which I had for many years, but fixing it at the same time made sense), and am now more or less fully recovered.

      Celiac support is hard to find

      I am so glad you found this forum and shared your journey. Hearing about your experience navigating those major food holidays so soon after your October diagnosis truly highlights your strength and resilience, even through the inevitable learning curves with cross-contamination. It's normal to feel isolated, especially when in-person support seems scarce...

      Gluten intolerance and coughing fits

      This is an old article from 2007, but interesting:

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I had double hernia laparoscopic surgery two months go to repair both an Inguinal hernia (a recent home project injury) and an umbilical hernia (which I had for many years, but fixing it at the same time made sense), and am now more or less fully recovered. Recently on the forum someone mentioned the idea of hernia induced IBS, which I now believe was a real for me, but was a fairly minor issue overall, which got worse after getting the more recent Inguinal hernia. My doctor never mentioned this as a possibility, even though I directly asked him about it during my office visit: Me "can my hernias cause any digestive issues?" My doctor: "No, I doubt that." I still need to learn more about hernia induced IBS, but I realize now that I might have been affected by this to some degree in for a while.

      I am so glad you found this forum and shared your journey. Hearing about your experience navigating those major food holidays so soon after your October diagnosis truly highlights your strength and resilience, even through the inevitable learning curves with cross-contamination. It's normal to feel isolated, especially when in-person support seems scarce in your area. Your idea to reach out to your GI and dietitian at NW Medicine is an excellent one, as they often have knowledge of local resources or even virtual networks. It’s wonderful to hear you’ve already secured a connection point with the Celiac Disease Foundation’s Zoom meeting and the podcast—those are fantastic steps toward building your community. Your feeling that celiac can be uniquely isolating is so true, but be sure to know that you are not walking this path alone. This community is here for you, and I sincerely hope that as you continue to reach out, both virtually and through your medical team, you will find more of the personal, local connections you’re seeking. We’re all in this together.
