We are a bit off topic here Alex. You can find more information here:

I think there should be a rule that once a topic's gone past 100 pages you don't have to worry so much about staying on topic..... :D

I know, I know.....

I actually like this thread so much BECAUSE we chit chat with each other just a little and then, say what's for dinner, then someone else comes on and chit chats some more and says what's for dinner. :) It's always on topic, therefore, and it does not really wander that far off at all and always comes right back to...What's for dinner! :)

So here's what's for dinner at my house:

Beef tenderloin (I use a counter-top Cuisinart rotisserie)

Cauliflower mashers

Haricots verts with herb butter

I made a mini spiced pumpkin loaf today because someone's pants are too tight and she needs fewer CARBS.

(It's a paleo bread by Elana of Elana's pantry and the whole house smells like...um, Thanksgiving! )

I am currently making apricot, cherry and miso jam to go with goat cheese and baguette.

Chile con carne with rice that has been infused with bay.

Japanese Cucumber Salad

Spicy Lime Roasted Chickpeas

Plumcots for dessert

What's a plumcot?

What's a plumcot?

It's a hybrid of plums and apricots, I believe,

but I should let LOVE2 tell you. I am guessing she's probably up to her elbows in jam preparation. :lol:

Yes, it is a plum and apricot all rolled into one. They look and taste more like plums than apricots. And the jam is now done! :)

Oh! No apology necessary. :) I just wanted to direct you to a place that had additional information for you from other parents of children with Celiac and how they cope. ;)

Son had tilapia and hubby and I had salmon with maple glaze. I also cooked new red potatoes with garlic and thyme and some broccoli on the side. So happy my son eats fish!

IrishHeart Veteran

I apologize.

Sweetie, you have absolutely NOTHING to apologize for.

You only answered a question!

You did not steer the discussion off topic.

You're fine! :)

and dinner sounds GREAT!!

This sounds delicious.

We had Taco Salad. It's too humid here to do much.

Starting to get humid here, too. May be 90 tomorrow.

Taco salad might be tomorrow's dinner.

Thanks for the idea. :)

Some of those 100+ pages are locked now, mostly due to not staying on topic and for other bizarre reasons. :blink::rolleyes:

But, what's for dinner? :)

Ack, going to 111 degrees with the humidex today.

I am going to cook dinner this morning while it is cool.

Maybe some pasta salad and chicken legs on the BBQ.

I've seen 'pluots' in the store. Same thing? Hmmm.....

Dindin last night was eggs and toast for hubby and chicken salad sammiches for me.

He is out working in this 98 degree day, mowing lawns. I know he won't be home until at least 8. Any ideas for dinner? Trying to decide what will be good after a day like that.... With another one coming tomorrow.....

Yes, pluots are the same.

Pluots, apriums, apriplums, or plumcots, are some of the hybrids.

:)

Hubs is working on the front porch in this heat.

He's getting:

Potato salad

Burgers on CHEBE rolls

and fruit salad for dessert.

We've been living together for over five years. There's plenty of states where I can call him hubby! Not this one... but anyway. We tend to say hubby and wife, especially with strangers. Easier.

      You might consider asking for a referral to a RD (Registered Dietician) to help with food choices and planning a diet. Even apart from any gluten issues, you will likely find there are some foods you need to avoid because of the shorter bowel but you may also find that your system may make adjustments over time and that symptoms may improve.
    • Ello
      I wish Dr’s would have these discussions with their patients. So frustrating but will continue to do research. Absolutely love this website. I will post any updates on my testing and results.  Thank you
    • trents
      Losing 12" of your small bowel is going to present challenges for you in nutritional uptake because you are losing a significant amount of nutritional absorption surface area. You will need to focus on consuming foods that are nutritionally dense and also probably look at some good supplements. If indeed you are having issues with gluten you will need to educate yourself as to how gluten is hidden in the food supply. There's more to it than just avoiding the major sources of gluten like bread and pasta. It is hidden in so many things you would never expect to find it in like canned tomato soup and soy sauce just to name a few. It can be in pills and medications.  Also, your "yellow diarrhea, constipation and bloating" though these are classic signs of a gluten disorder, could also be related to the post surgical shorter length of your small bowel causing incomplete processing/digestion of food.
    • Ello
      Yes this information helps. I will continue to be pro active with this issues I am having. More testing to be done. Thank you so much for your response.

      There are two gluten-related disorders that share many of the same symptoms but differ in nature from each other. One is known as celiac disease or "gluten intolerance". By nature, it is an autoimmune disorder, meaning the ingestion of gluten triggers the body to attack it's own tissues, specifically the lining of the small bowel. This attack causes inflammation and produces antibodies that can be detected in the blood by specific tests like the TTG-IGA test you had. Over time, if gluten is not withheld, this inflammation can cause severe damage to the lining of the small bowel and even result in nutrient deficiency related health issues since the small bowel lining is organ where all the nutrition found in our food is absorbed.  The other is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity or just "gluten sensitivity") which we know less about and are unsure of the exact mechanism of action. It is not an autoimmune disorder and unlike celiac disease it does not damage the lining of the small bowel, though, like celiac disease, it can cause GI distress and it can also do other kinds of damage to the body. It is thought to be more common than celiac disease. Currently, we cannot test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out to arrive at a diagnosis of NCGS. Both disorders require elimination of gluten from the diet.  Either of these disorders can find their onset at any stage of life. We know that celiac disease has a genetic component but the genes are inactive until awakened by some stress event. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% develop active celiac disease. The incidence of NCGS is thought to be considerably higher. I hope this helps.
