My hands are over my eyes! La! La! La! I can't see or hear you! :o

I try to pretend these types of foods are not gluten-free so I don't eat them! If I don't look at the ingredients, I can assume they are not gluten-free. Otherwise, I would be scarfing them down! :)

I use to eat those when I was early out and never got sick, in fact I lived on them for awhile, while I figured out what I could eat. I actually forgot about them. I may have to get some of those again! YUM. Thanks for the reminder! :P

Wow... thanks a pantload for this post. I'd forgotten all about those and they were all I could think about after reading this thread. I bought some today and just finished them for supper. They were delish! I'm doomed.

A really yummy and safe snack is the My-Del arrowroot animal crackers and the pre-made jello cheesecake filling that you can buy in the tub. Almost as good as cheesecake. And you can throw in some strawberry jam to kick it up a notch. Also, the My-del ginger snaps are a great substitute for graham crackers when making a cheesecake. Oh, and the Bob Evans and Country Crock pre-made, pre-packaged mashed potatoes, au gratin potatoes, broccoli and rice and baked apples are all gluten free, as well as some of their bar-b-qued meat, so if you are traveling to someone else's house for dinner you can take your own stuff. Also good to know for when you are traveling and can't find a restaurant with gluten-free food. Another favorite nibble is the gluten-free chocolate chex. And if you really want to trash a diet, Wolf brand chili heated and poured over cooked, sliced hotdogs and fritoes with lots of cheese will do the job for you. I have to laugh because many people assume that because I am celiac and cannot have gluten that I eat healthy. It did not take very long after discovering the safe things for me to eat before I found the really good, bad for you things that I could eat as well. B)

Too funny about the Cheesecake recipe, I do the exact same thing.

It's actually the Kraft Philly Cheesecake filling.

I crush up cookies, butter and jam for the crust (bake at 350 for 10 minutes to make it firm).

Then, add the filling and Voila! you have gluten-free cheesecake.

I usually use Pamela's cookies in multiple combo's.

Just today, I bought Lemon Shortbread and I'll mix in some of their chocoloate too. I've used the Ginger too. There is no reason to have a recipe, use what you like.

Happy Holidays!

      Hi Katht - I sympathize with your struggles in following a gluten-free diet and lifestyle. I found out that I had Celiac Disease a few months before I turned 70. I just turned 89 and it has taken me almost 20 years to attain a fairly normal intestinal function. I also lost a lot of weight, down to 100 lb. down from about 140 lb. What Trents wrote you was...

      Hi Colleen Are you supplementing B12/having injections? I have learned recently that sometimes when you start addressing a B12 deficiency, it can temporarily make your symptoms worse. But it is important not to stop the treatment. Regarding your problems with anxiety, again that is another symptom of a B12 deficiency. I didn't know...

      Ferritin levels.  And see what your hemoglobin looks like too, that will tell you if you are anemic?  You can have 'low normal' levels that will not be flagged by blood tests.  I had 'low normal' levels, my lab reading was. c12, just over what was considered normal, but I had small benign lesion on my tongue, and sometimes a sore mouth, and a consultant maxillofacial ordered an iron infusion for me as he felt my levels were too low and if he  raised them to 40, it would help.   Because you are not feeling 100% it might be worth looking at your levels, then discussing with your doctor if they are low normal.  But I stress, don't supplement iron without your levels being monitored, too much is dangerous.

      Hi Katht -  I sympathize with your struggles in following a gluten-free diet and lifestyle. I found out that I had Celiac Disease a few months before I turned 70. I just turned 89 and it has taken me almost 20 years to attain a fairly normal intestinal  function. I also lost a lot of weight, down to 100 lb. down from about 140 lb. What Trents wrote you was very true for me. I am still elimination foods from my diet. One person suggested you keep a food diary and that is a good idea but it is probably best just to do an elimination diet. There are several ne and maybe one for celiacs. I used one for a while and started with plain rice and zucchini and then added back other foods to see if I reacted or not. That helped a great deal but what I did not realise that it would only very small amounts of some foods to cause inflammation in my intestine. Within the last few years I have stopped eating any trace amounts of hot peppers, corn and soy(mostly in supplements) and nuts, (the corn in Tylenol was giving me stomach aches and the nuts were causing foot pains). Starting an elimination diet with white rice is better than brown rice that has some natural toxins. In addition it is very important to drink sufficient plain water. You can find out how much to drink for your height and weight online. I do have difficulty drinking 48 ounces of water but just recently have found an electrolyte supplement that helps me stay well hydrated, Adding the water and electrolytes may reduce muscle cramps and gag spams you wrote about. . Also buy some anti-gluten enzyme capsules to take with meals. I use GliadinX advertised here. These are a lot of things to do at one time as they reflect my 20 years of experience. I hope you do what you can manage to do over time. Good luck and take care.

      Hi Colleen Are you supplementing B12/having injections? I have learned recently that sometimes when you start addressing a B12 deficiency, it can temporarily make your symptoms worse.  But it is important not to stop the treatment.  Regarding your problems with anxiety, again that is another symptom of a B12 deficiency.   I didn't know what anxiety was until it hit me like a train several months before gastrointestinal issues began, so I can certainly relate.   Two books which helped me hugely were At Last A Life by Paul David (there is a website you can look up) and The Depression Cure: The Six-Step Programme to Beat Depression Without Drugs by Dr Steve Llardi.  Although his book is aimed at people who have depression, following the principals he sets out was so helpful in lessening my anxiety.  Llardi suggests we need to focus on getting enough: - physical exercise - omega-3 fatty acids - natural sunlight exposure - restorative sleep - social connectedness - meaningful, engaging activity   ... and we should feel a lot better. That is not to stay you must stop taking medication for depression or anxiety if you have been prescribed it, but adopting the changes Dr Llardi sets out in the book should really help. Can I just ask two more questions:  1) you say that you are B12 deficient, did they test your iron levels too?  If not, you really ought to be checked for deficiency and, 2) did they check your thyroid function, as an overactive thyroid can be cause rapid heartbeat and a lot of coeliacs have thyroid issues?
