After about 12 years of misery, I finally got a dx of gluten intolerance after my new doctor ran a series of tests for antibodies (I have Hashimoto's so she wanted to test). I'm three days in and feel like I am going to starve. I didn't realize how much we relied on processed crap since I really am a poor cook. I ordered a five-ingredient cookbook for the crockpot that can be modified gluten free but until it comes I'm pretty much eating rice and beans. I work for a surgeon so we eat on the run most of the time and I don't know what I can eat out anymore! On a good note, my "kangaroo-belly" is almost gone and what I thought was fibromyalgia and psoriasis is getting better too. Any advice or tips on getting started and what to eat would be really appreciated!

Here's a thread in the Baking & Cooking Tips section with some ideas that might help:

There's also a thread in the same section about 'what are you eating tonight'? and others that have a bunch of ideas and recipes...

Just google gluten free recipes and you'll come up with alot. I think there's a crock pot site called 365 or something similar. I think this is it Open Original Shared Link

The best advice I have is not to panic, your food foraging and cooking will improve. And quickly, if you're hungry!

      Thank you for the links to the articles.  Interesting reading. I'll be telling my brother in law because he has a lot of pain

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
