I'm Craving A Bagel...

Ok, I live in NYC, and bagels are everywhere! They are so tasty, and I am having the worst cravings for one. I'd also love to give in and have a slice of pizza. Can someone tell me if these cravings go away?

I feel weak, and depressed... Any words of encouragement?

No bagel tastes as good a New York bagel. Give that dream up NOW. Kinnikinnick has bagels that are very good for gluten free. Pizza crusts too. Still not near the same as a New York pizza.

They may or may not go away but there are great substitutes. For everything that has gluten there is something that is gluten free.

Kinnikinnick has gluten free bagels

Foods by George has english muffins that are really good(I toast the cinnamon and put strawberry Kraft cream cheese on it-soo good)

There are many good breads that we can have. You'll pick up on the good brands and then it won't bother you as much hopefully :D

After reading the book "Dangerous Grains" I had absolutely no desire to eat anything even remotely like bread ever again.

I made my whole family gluten free after reading Dangerous Grains. Only one member out of the five has celiac disease.

You should stop by Risotteria Open Original Shared Link. They have great gluten-free pizza!

I also like Kinnikinnicks cinnamon rasin bagels, so yummie!

I completely understand! Before celiac disease, bagels were truly my favorite food. I think out of everything else, I miss popping in to a bakery on my way to class and picking up a fresh-baked bagel. I've been gluten-free for almost a year now (Aug. 23rd) and I still wish I could have bagels. However, the craving is not nearly as bad as it was last year, and I never thought it would die down.

I loooooove the Glutino bagels. And until a few months ago, I thought I was alone--then someone asked about the best bagel @ the delphi board and most others agreed...try it--it's not the same--a little lighter (I live in NY, as well), but it's the best thing I've found so far. What's funny is that at first I didn't like it, since I tried it right after getting diagnosed. Then my tastes adapted and now I love them and eat them every morning...

WEST MEADOW FARM BAKERY in Vermont!!!!!! If you want a bagel that doesnt taste gluten-free then this is where you go! They are a little smaller but like I said they are delicious! They are about $1 a bagel but worth it. The lady who runs the bakery makes them fresh and she will make any kind you want! She has a web site but it is still under construction but her telephone number is there, just give her a call, shes very nice and also has muffins (also great) delicious donuts that taste like real doughboys and pies (havent tried them yet but i'm sure they are good) Hope I helped !

I"ve been gluten free for 4 years now and I still get the occassional cravings for bagels, pizza, oreos, etc. Every once in while I start crying, and I think its pent up emotions coming out becaues usually I am fine being around people eating tons of stuff I can't have.

Personally, I am not a fan of Kinnikinick bagels. I LOVE Glutino bagels though. They redid them last year and now they are bigger (about the size of a bagel, say, from Brueggers). I love them!

      FDA Moves to Improve Gluten Labeling—What It Means for People With Celiac Disease

      My question I have proposed to the FDA through their website is why Prescription and OTC drug manufacturers are not required to list what binding ingredients were used to bine the drug? They list this on Capsules which are made of cellulose but not on pills? As it stands I or my pharmacist must contact the manufacturer to find out and my list is long from...

      i take b12, folate, b2, b6, glycine, Nac, zinc, vk2 mk4, magnesium, coq10, pqq, tmg, creatine, omega 3, molybdnem (sp) and just started vit d. quite a list i know.  I have high homocysteine (last checked it was 19, but is always high and i finally decided to do something about it) and very low vitamin d, 10. have been opposed to this supp in the past, but going to try it at 5k units a day. having a pth test on friday, which is suspect will be high. my homocysteine has come down to around 9 with 3 weeks of these supplements and expect it to go down further. i also started on estrogen/progesterone. I have osteoporosis too, so that is why the hormones.  anyway, i think all celiacs should have homocysteine checked and treated if needed (easy enough with b vit, tmg). homocysteine very bad thing to be high for a whole host of reasons. all the bad ones, heart attack , stroke, alzi, cancer..... one of the most annoying things about celiacs (and there are so many!) is the weight gain. i guess i stayed thin all those years being undiagnosed because i was under absorbing everything including calories. going gluten-free and the weight gain has been terrible, 30#, but i'm sure a lot more went into that (hip replacement - and years of hip pain leading to inactivity when i was previously very active, probably all related to celiacs, menopause) yada yada. i seemed to lose appetite control, like there was low glp, or leptin or whatever all those hormones are that tell you that you are full and to stop eating. my appetite is immense and i'm never full. i guess decades or more ( i think i have had celiacs since at least my teens - was hospitalized for abdominal pain and diarrhea for which spastic colon was eventually diagnosed and had many episodes of diarrhea/abdominal pain through my 20's. but that symptom seemed to go away and i related it to dairy much more so than gluten. Also my growth was stunted, i'm the only shorty in my family. anyway, decades of malabsorption and maldigestion led to constant hunger, at least thats my theory. then when i started absorbing normally, wham!! FAT!!!

      You may also need to supplement with B12 as this vitamin is also involved in iron assimilation and is often deficient in long-term undiagnosed celiac disease.
