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.

      Fiber Supplement

      Another great fiber option is dried apricots. Four of them give you 3g of fiber and I find they don't produce all the gas that some other high fiber options do. They taste good too. Costco sells a large bag of them that are labeled gluten-free so you don't have to worry about cross contamination issues like you might in bulk grocery settings.

      Wow, that's alot of info, Thanks!!!! I had my intake with Nutrionist where we went over basics and then will have follow up where we will talk about all the questions I've come up with (including the fiber question and so many more). I'll talk to her about the info you provided as well. Thanks again (newbie here 😀)

      Is this celiac?

      Hello again. Thank you for the responses to date. I have had several follow-ups and wanted to share what I’ve learned. About a month after my initial blood test and going gluten free, my TtG went from 8.1 to 1.8. I have learned that my copper is low and my B6 is high. My other vitamins and nutrients are more or less in range. After I glutened myself on 1...

      Fiber Supplement

      @Trish G, I like dates, they have lots if fiber as well. But what I found helped most was taking Thiamine (in the form Benfotiamine which helps promote intestinal healing), Pyridoxine B 6, Riboflavin B 2, and magnesium, and Omega Three fats. The absorption of nutrients is affected by Celiac disease which damages the intestinal lining of the small...

      Hello again. Thank you for the responses to date. I have had several follow-ups and wanted to share what I’ve learned. About a month after my initial blood test and going gluten free, my TtG went from 8.1 to 1.8. I have learned that my copper is low and my B6 is high. My other vitamins and nutrients are more or less in range. After I glutened myself on 10/24, I have been strict about being gluten free - so about a month. I have been eating dairy free and low FODMAP as well because it’s what my stomach allows. Baked fish, potatoes, rice, etc. Whole foods and limited Whole foods. I have continued to lose weight but it has slowed down, but a total of about 15 pounds since I went gluten free. Along with stomach pain, my symptoms included nausea, body and joint pain, a burning sensation throughout my body and heart rate spikes. I still have them but I have them less now. These are the symptoms that led to my doctor appointments and subsequent diagnosis. I also did the DNA screening and was positive. So, at this point, the answer is yes, I have celiac. I have two questions for this group. Any ideas on why my enteropathy was so severe (marsh 3B) and my TtG was so minimal? Is that common? Or are there other things to consider with that combo? And this recovery, still having pain and other symptoms a month later (7 weeks gluten free and 4 weeks after the glutening) normal? I’m going to continue down this path of bland foods and trying to heal but would love to understand the reasons for the long journey. I read so much about people who stop eating gluten and feel amazing. I wish that was my experience but it certainly hasn’t been. Thank you again!

      @Trish G,  I like dates, they have lots if fiber as well.  But what I found helped most was taking Thiamine (in the form Benfotiamine which helps promote intestinal healing), Pyridoxine B 6, Riboflavin B 2, and magnesium, and Omega Three fats. The absorption of nutrients is affected by Celiac disease which damages the intestinal lining of the small intestines where our nutrients are absorbed.  If you have constipation, where your body is rather pushing your food away and not interacting with it, the nutrients in the food are not being released and absorbed.  You can develop deficiencies in all the vitamins and minerals necessary for the body to function properly.   The B vitamins cannot be stored for long, so they must be replenished daily.  Thiamine B 1 stores can run out in as little as three days.  Constipation (or diarrhea or alternating) is one of the first symptoms of thiamine deficiency.  Thiamine needs magnesium, Pyridoxine B 6, and Riboflavin B 2 to make the intestinal tract function.  Thiamine and Niacin make digestive enzymes.  Thiamine provides the energy for nerve impulses to carry messages to the brain and back about digestion.  Thiamine provides the energy for the muscle contractions which move your food through the digestive tract. High calorie meals containing lots of starches and sugars can deplete thiamine stores quickly because more thiamine is required to turn them into energy.   Are you taking any vitamin and mineral supplements?  Correction of malnutrition is very important in Celiac disease.  Thiamine, the other B vitamins and magnesium will help with constipation better than adding more fiber.  What did your nutritionist recommend you take, besides just the fiber? The association between dietary vitamin B1 intake and constipation: a population-based study https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11100033/ Thiamine, gastrointestinal beriberi and acetylcholine signaling https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12014454/ Association between dietary vitamin B6 intake and constipation: a population-based study https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11584952/

      @kpf, Were you eating ten grams or more of gluten daily in the month preceding your antibody blood tests? TTg IgA antibodies are made in the intestines.  Ten grams of gluten per day for several weeks before testing is required to provoke sufficient antibody production for the antibodies to leave the intestines and enter the blood stream and be measured in blood tests. If you had already gone gluten free or if you had lowered your consumption of gluten before testing, your results will be inaccurate and inconclusive.   See link below on gluten challenge guidelines. Have you had any genetic testing done to see if you carry genes for Celiac disease?  If you don't have genes for Celiac, look elsewhere for a diagnosis.  But if you have Celiac genes, you cannot rule out Celiac disease. You mentioned in another post that you are vegetarian.  Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  The best sources of the eight essential B vitamins are found in meats.  Do you supplement any of the B vitamins as a vegetarian? Deficiency in Thiamine Vitamin B 1 is strongly associated with anemia which can cause false negatives on antibody tests.  Fatigue, numbness or tingling in extremities, difficulty with coordination, headaches and anemia are strongly associated with thiamine deficiency.  Other B vitamins that contribute to those symptoms are Riboflavin B 2, Pyridoxine B 6, Folate B 9 and B12 Cobalamine.  The eight B vitamins all work together with minerals like magnesium and iron.  So your symptoms are indicative of B vitamin deficiencies.  You can develop vitamin and mineral deficiencies just being a vegetarian and not eating good sources of B vitamins like meat.  B vitamin deficiencies are found in Celiac due to the malabsorption of nutrients because the lining of the intestines gets damaged by the antibodies produced in response to gluten.

      Thanks, I'm not a big fan of prunes but did add them back after stopping the Benefiber. Hoping for the best while I wait to hear back from Nutritionist for a different fiber supplement.  Thanks again
