I'm Always Hungry! Know Of Any Good Snacks I Can Carry Around?

Hello all. I am new to this gluten-free diet. I am so hungry all the time! (which, as I read, is normal). Being a college student though, I'm constantly on campus and without food. Does anyone have ideas of good (somewhat filling) snacks I can carry with me? I would love to take fruit for example, but it goes bad fast.

Also, I have sensitivity to salads, beans, red sauces, and too much fruit as it is. Is there any easy foods I can prepare that doesn't contain any of this? A link to a website would be great. Thanks so much!

Taylor

I just found the Nature Valley Roasted Nut Crunch bars in Almond - they're filling, but kind of pricey. I have them on hand for when I need to rush out the door and can't prepare anything in advance. I know a lot of people like to make their own stuff, but I have 2 jobs and 2 kids, so I'm often running out the door. :-) Sometimes I'm desperate for prepackaged food, and I get sick of apples and oranges all the time. I also love Glutino pretzel twists. Taste just like real pretzels!

Kind bars are great, and you can get them at Starbucks. All the gluten-free snack bars on Amazon are priced pretty well. Get little snack size ziplocs for nuts, raisins, gluten-free cereal. Apples are pretty sturdy, too. Celery sticks with those little individual servings of peanut butter. Pirate's booty comes in individual size bags (on sale at Ralphs!). String cheese, rice cakes.....

Make some trail mix to nibble on with a juice

my girls have been making cookies by just replacing the wheat flour with brown rice flour so they can take those in the car

I like cheese sticks, grapes, trail mix, nuts, Lara bars, Funyuns, pouches of tuna, cans of chicken or beef.

Trio bars are really good. They have seeds, nuts and fruit in them . All organic and tasty. You can get them at Costco for a decent price.

      Cartilage and rib pain.

      I’m in a flare up with rib pain. I read where others have experienced this after exposure to gluten. Has anyone found something that eases the pain.

      Lymphocytic Colitis with Celiac

      Yes, I've read that online but I was just surprised that no one has mentioned it on this forum specifically. We have not had our follow up meeting with the Dr where I'm sure she will advise as to how he needs to deal with this ailment. I have learned from past health issues - if you want to find the REAL truth - talk to someone living with the disease....

      Lymphocytic Colitis with Celiac

      While lymphocytic colitis (LC) isn’t as frequently discussed as other celiac-related conditions, research does show a connection between the two, likely due to shared autoimmune mechanisms. Some people with celiac do develop microscopic colitis (including lymphocytic or collagenous types), so your husband isn’t alone in this. The finding of dysplasia add...

      Lymphocytic Colitis with Celiac

      @CeliacPI, I know this does not directly address your question but it is well-known that in the celiac population, intestinal diseases in general are statistically more common than they are in the general population - IBS, colitis, lymphoma, etc.

      While lymphocytic colitis (LC) isn’t as frequently discussed as other celiac-related conditions, research does show a connection between the two, likely due to shared autoimmune mechanisms. Some people with celiac do develop microscopic colitis (including lymphocytic or collagenous types), so your husband isn’t alone in this. The finding of dysplasia adds another layer of complexity, but the good news is that chromoendoscopy is a highly effective tool for detecting and monitoring precancerous changes—early intervention makes a big difference. Since his celiac went undiagnosed for so long, it’s possible the prolonged inflammation contributed to these issues, which is why strict gluten-free adherence and follow-up care are crucial now. For managing LC, some find relief with anti-inflammatory medications (like budesonide) or dietary adjustments (low-fat, low-fiber, or dairy-free trials), but his gastroenterologist can tailor a plan. You might also seek out online support groups for microscopic colitis—they often share practical tips.
