Hi everyone. I was recently diagnosed with Celiac, and am planning to be married in July. My fiance and I are trying to find a honeymoon destination.

Has anyone had experiences with resorts that have been accommodating of the diet? I do not want to spend my honeymoon sick! Any thoughts would be appreciated.

We are hoping to do a beach honeymoon somewhere!

Thanks!

All of the major resort hotesl here in Kona on the Big Island of Hawaii will do great gluten free meals. Four Seasons, Fairmont. Mauna Kea, Hilton Waikola all have chefs who are aware of it and all keep gluten-free foods isolated form regular foods. I think with the major resorts as long as you talk to the chef ahead of time and keep reminding them once your there, it should be no problem. I'll be glad ot get you names and numbers for the chefs here if you decided on Hawaii.

Congrats!

If you can't find a resort how about a cruise? Royal Carribean do gluten free, and every day I got fab gluten-free bread and desserts! Just let them know when you book the cruise. Plus the entertainment is great!

Congrats!

When my husband and I went on our honeymoon in 2001, I was not yet gluten free (not even sure I was gluten intolerant, at that time), but we went back to Hawaii in 2007, by which point I had been gluten (and dairy) free for four (and three, respectively) years. We stayed in bed and breakfasts that had kitchens we could cook in, and checked on a few restaurants ahead of time (many recommended on this site), and I had no problem avoiding gluten the entire trip. Having food on hand for the long days we were out snorkeling or hiking was harder, but that's always it's own challenge, especially since I'm hypoglycemic and tend to need food every few hours.

Find a place you WANT to go, and then figure out how to make it work gluten free. In the vast majority of cases, you'll work it out just fine!

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      Is there a digestive enzyme that helps build a healthier gut? I see people taking them but not sure what really works

      Disaccharide deficient, confusing biopsy results, no blood test

      So the tTG-IGA at 28 is positive for celiac disease. There are some other medical conditions that can cause elevated tTG-IGA but this is unlikely. There are some people for whom the dairy protein casein can cause this but by far the most likely cause is celiac disease. Especially when your small bowel lining is "scalloped".

      hi, i want to say thank you to you and @trents . after 2 phone calls to my GI, her office called me back to tell me that a blood test was “unnecessary” and that we should “follow the gold standard” and since my biopsy did not indicate celiac, to follow the no dairy and sucraid diet. i luckily have expendable income and made an appt for the labcorp blood t...

      Thoughts? Non-endoscopic Celiac diagnosis in two year old

      Okay that is really good to know. So with that being positive and the other being high it makes sense she diagnosed her even without the endoscopy. So glad we caught it early. She had so many symptoms though that to me it was clear something was wrong. yeah I think we had better test us and the other kids as well.

      So the tTG-IGA at 28 is positive for celiac disease. There are some other medical conditions that can cause elevated tTG-IGA but this is unlikely. There are some people for whom the dairy protein casein can cause this but by far the most likely cause is celiac disease. Especially when your small bowel lining is "scalloped". Your Serum IGA 01 (aka, "total IGA") at 245 mg/dl is within normal range, indicating you are not IGA deficient. But I also think it would be wise to take your doctor's advice about the sucraid diet and avoiding dairy . . . at least until you experience healing and your gut has had a chance to heal, which can take around two years. After that, you can experiment with adding dairy back in and monitor symptoms. By the way, if you want the protein afforded by dairy but need to avoid casein, you can do so with whey protein powder. Whey is the other major protein in dairy.
