Balancing A gluten-free Diet

Well, yesterday I decided to go gluten-free, I went to the store and picked up several gluten-free items. My toddler tends to want to eat and eat. I'm usually fine with figuring out a meal for him, but I get lost when he continues to ask for more food...I"m not sure what to fix next...which food group is the best choice...he only has 10 teeth so we're still doing toddler friendly foods, and he's also no dairy. I feel like I feed him too much of the same .carbs, carbs and more carbs! I usually juice his veggies otherwise they end up on the floor. He loves fruit, but I try not to over do it, since he pectin could be contributing to his stool issues.

Breakfast he had

1/4 c quinoa flakes hot cereal (made 3/4c prepared)

1/2 small banana (mixed in cereal)

1 small banana

water

Tried some sugar snap peas...no go, but fun to play with.

1/4 cup of panda PB cereal

      Sorry, I think I got you mixed up with another poster.

      I hadn't been eating gluten free before having the antibody test done. I started eating gluten free after having the test done because the gastro PA told me to eat gluten-free for 6 months. I'm now 3 months in.

      I tend to agree with RMJ. Your doc took the reasonable and practical approach to diagnosis. All things considered, it was the right way to go. However, if you have first degree relatives that show signs of possible celiac disease, urge them to get formally tested before they start the gluten free diet.

      It sounds like you have a very reasonable GI doctor, who diagnosed you based on family history and symptoms after eating gluten. I would consider you lucky! The other option would be to make yourself very sick by doing weeks of a gluten challenge prior to an endoscopy.
