Mine was a sandwich...just a ham and cheese sandwich. With Doritos.

I do that too...it's in the back of my Day Planner. :ph34r:

Hey this is me!!! I need to figure out what my name and password is!!! How cool.

I couldn't find it.. I found this one though. Hmmmm wonder when I made this one. Anyone know how to delete an account on here. I'd like to have just one. :)

Just last weekend the strangest thing happened again, as it happens every few weeks. We live in a development near a shopping mall. Outside the mall is a Chinese food buffet. This yummy buffet has these invisible tentacles that snake out every few Sundays and grab me out of my house, sometimes right off the sofa and drag me into the restaurant. I don't want to go, after all I am on a gluten free diet and I know I can't eat that stuff... but these tentacles are very strong and I cannot fight them. So I do my best to eat the sushi, mussles, shrimp, baked salmon but it's funny how those spring rolls and those little crispy triangles with cream cheese find their way onto my plate. Even their sweet and sour chicken has a tendency to drop onto my plate. Well it is usually Wednesday before I feel better. Today is my Remicade infusion so I most likely won't be subject to those temptations this weekend.

My cravings are for: Big, greasy, juicy, bacon cheeseburger with fries and brown gravy (I'm Canadian), or a Harvey's burger, or donuts from Tim Hortons, or Poutine, or a real Canadian Jewish bagel with cream cheese and lox, or ketchup potato chips, or a huge order of Swiss Chalet...*sigh*

I had a month from my positive blood work until my biopsy, so I know I was eating lots of gluten things. But the thing that sticks into my head was our halloween party Oct.25, 2008. We had cupcakes and we made a sandwich in the shape of a snake with lots of yummy cheese and lunch meat inside. I had already had the biopsy a couple of days before this, and since the party had been planned for months, I decided I was eating what I wanted until they called me with the results. I found out about 3 days later that I had villi blunting. I went gluten free after that next morning. I accidently ate milky way bite size candy bars this past halloween not realizing they had barley malt in them until after the fact.

Hi Jennifer,

I remember you--welcome back :D

Your best bet would be to contact Scott Adams, the site owner. Just go to the board index and click on 'admin' to PM him.

Hi! I remember you too! I contacted Scott Adams and he combined the other 2 into this account.

OMG these days I'm so tempted to have a slice of pizza or maybe some KFC. That new "double" thing they came out with is really calling my name. I have so many other allergies that it would be a real doozy if I did decide to buy one though.

I don't remember the last thing I ate... but after my GI appointment I was very disappointed because I had made an amazing sandwich in the morning to eat on the way home and I couldn't eat it... But the GI didn't tell me anything about the disease (seems to be the running trend) so I just took the stuff off the bun and ate it anyways...

I have to give credit to Erratic - -she mentioned animal crackers as her last "gluten" item she intentionally ate.

What was the last Gluten-Item you INTENTIONALLY ate?

For me, it was a mug full of beer. Around the summer of 1998 at Ohio State...it was wonderful, for a few hours... :o

Pizza on a cruise and will never have it again. I did have a about a month ago and had no problems. Had one again the following weekend to see and still not problems. I know, I know...please do not respond to my drinking these beers because I know you all will say that still doesn't mean it was good for you even though you didn't have symptoms. Just imagine if we could still drink beer and were only affected by food that contains wheat. I just don't understand how one little rice chex with a smidgen of p-nut butter could make me bloated and a beer did nothing to me that I could feel.

My gluten challenge made me so sick, I was beyond relieved when the time came to give up gluten, but . . .

I DREAM ABOUT EATING GLUTEN ALL THE TIME!

I'll be at a party and take a bite or two of crackers, cake or a cookie before remembering I shouldn't eat it.

Then I freak out. Then I wake up. Fun.

My "last supper" was fettuccini Alfredo and tons of bread at our favorite Italian place, the night before my endoscopy.

And, I agree with others- if there ever is a cute for Celiac's, I'm going to gain some serious weight stuffing my face with all the foods I miss! :rolleyes:

My last intentional glutening was about a year after I was diagnossed. I'd always loved making yummy loaves of beautiful bread and made several different kinds for a party. It smelled so danged good, I cut off a big hunk, slathered it w/ tons of butter, and chowed it down, while my daughter was yelling, "NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!" It was absolutely delicious.

And I had NO repurcussions... none. I started making a list, thinking that maybe I could plan a "cheat" once a month or so. Subway Tuna hoagie, Pizza Hut stuffed crust pizza, a bagel w/ tons of cream cheese and lox, a Philly cheese steak, a Big Mac, any pasta dish in an Italian restaurant...

I realized that I wasn't 100% gluten-free in my everyday diet... peeps here set me straight! My symptoms were fairly mild. The next time I was accidentally glutened, my reaction was way more severe and now I wouldn't put gluten in my mouth for anything!!

But, holy cow... was that bread good!!

I wonder how many others have experienced similar situations: Healed . . . screw up . . . everhthing is fine . . . but when you try it again, WHAM! I would love to know.

I agree: I wouldn't put gluten in my mouth for anything. Nothing tastes as good as being healthy feels.

      Here is a recipe I highly recommend. Wonderful flavors and very satisfying. As written, chicken fits in a 12 inch sauté pan. I've tried doubling this recipe - I had to cook chicken in two batches, setting one batch on a plate while finishing second batch. Once preliminary cooking was finished, the same 12" pan was able to fit combined batches for rest of recipe. Kind of a hassle, but I had a large package of chicken and I was happy with extra leftovers.  I tend to use red onion in preference to shallot as I prefer the stronger flavor.   Pineapple Chicken Breast with Salsa and Coconut Rice Ingredients 1 1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite size pieces (I use kitchen shears) 1/3 cup low-sodium gluten-free soy sauce (or coconut aminos) 1/3 cup pineapple juice 2 tablespoons brown sugar 2 tablespoons gluten-free ketchup (plain ketchup tends to be safe but read the label) 1 shallot, chopped (or red onion) 4 cloves garlic, chopped 1 tablespoon grated ginger 1 pinch red pepper flakes (more if you like) 2 tablespoons sesame oil, or extra virgin olive oil 1/4 cup chopped cilantro Pineapple Salsa 2 cups canned pineapple chunks (or fresh pineapple; crushed pineapple works, but is less preferred) 1/2 small shallot, finely chopped (or red onion) 1 jalapeño, seeded (if desired) and chopped (depending on your tastes, this could be doubled) juice of 1 lime 2 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves (dried are ok) 1 avocado, diced Instructions     • In glass jar, whisk together soy sauce, pineapple juice, brown sugar, ketchup, shallots, garlic, ginger, and chili flakes.     • Pour 1/3 of sauce over chicken and let sit 15 minutes or up to overnight in fridge.     • Meanwhile, make the salsa: combine all ingredients in bowl.     • Heat oil in large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken, cook 5 minutes until cooked through on both sides. Reduce heat to medium and pour in remaining soy sauce mix.     • Cook until sauce glazes chicken and begins to caramelize, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in cilantro.     • Serve chicken over rice and spoon salsa over chicken. Sprinkle on diced avocado and squeeze of lime. Coconut Rice:     • Combine 1 (14 ounce) can coconut milk and 1/2 cup water in a medium pot. Bring to low boil.     • Add 1 cup basmati rice and pinch of salt. Stir to combine, cover, then turn heat down to lowest setting possible.     • Allow rice to cook 10 minutes on low, then turn heat off completely and let rice sit, covered for another 15-20 minutes (don’t take any peeks inside!).     • Remove lid and fluff rice with a fork. Instant pot alt. for Coconut Rice: 2 cups white rice, pinch of salt, one 14 oz can coconut milk and one can water, mix, then cook 3 min with slow release. Fluff with fork and serve. This recipe has some minor modifications from the original at www.halfbakedharvest.com/pineapple-chicken/

      KnittyKitty, quite agree, more tests should be standard, mandatory even,  but they simply are not in the UK.  Younger people seem to be tested more older people. Limited funds perhaps, its not right and would be vehemently denied by the-powers-that-be, but there you are. More and more I've found that as I get older I need to do more of the detective work myself. Thankfully, I  am able to do that but feel very sorry for those who can't.  Anyway, I have already gained so many helpful suggestions on this forum and its just so nice to know that I'm not the only one with this wretched condition.  We live to fight another day🤗 Sue

      Oh wow, I also have vitiligo on my hands and just in the last few days (when I have been brave enough to actually look at my skin now it's a bit better) on my feet a bit. A derm years ago noticed it and said 'stress', I thought probably topical steroid use but what you have written, fits.

      @suek54, Testing for nutritional deficiencies is considered part of proper follow up care for those with Celiac Disease and Dermatitis Herpetiformis.  The malabsorption of nutrients is common in both.  The problem is doctors don't know much about nutrition. Doctors aren't required to take many hours of instruction in nutrition.  They are taught outdated information which doesn't apply to clinical practice.  They attend medical schools funded by pharmaceutical companies and taught to prescribe drugs to treat symptoms, not discover the source of the illness.  There are many diseases that would benefit from proper nutrition.  Arthritis, MS, vitiligo, infertility,  and Diabetes are just a few. Do be sure to visit Dr. Lonsdale and Dr. Marrs' site where I learned so much about thiamine... https://hormonesmatter.com/genetic-thiamine-deficiency-ravaged-my-family/ https://hormonesmatter.com/familial-beriberi-discovering-lifelong-genetic-thiamine-deficiency/ https://hormonesmatter.com/thiamine-deficiency-causes-problems/

      Hi KnittyKitty, Like Belle I have read all your info with great interest and made notes to do a bit of research. It really is a minefield isn't it? Im already on that autoimmune bandwagon you mention - vitiligo, premature ovarian failure (at 39), hypothyroidism, Addison's and now dermatitis herpetiformis. I'm stopping there,  any more would just be greedy don't you think!😂 One of my two brothers had rheumatoid arthritis, his daughter has MS, my other brother had pernicious anaemia, all autoimmune. The force seems to be strong in our family. Interestingly,  my grandmother had frequent bouts of sickness and diarrhoea all her life, poor love. No-one ever got to the bottom of it. I wonder if she too had coeliacs? dermatitis herpetiformis is horrid but the dapsone 100mg has now cleared my skin. Im still getting some itching and prickling, but nothing to see. Im hoping that will stop in time. My bloods are holding well, no side effects that I'm aware of.  You seem to have access to a lot more tests in the USA than we do here in UK. Our NHS is brilliant but only with private health insurance could we get all the tests you mention. Hey ho, perhaps I'll win the lottery then I shall have the whole raft of tests.  Thank you so much for all the info.  Sue
