Glutened And It Was Even A Good Meal.

Pretty sure I got glutened eating out tonight. Went to a local BBQ place. Asked the waitress about gluten free items. She said everything but bread, cornbread, and fried items (shared frier) should be fine. She answered right away, w/out hesitation, so I got the impression she knew what she was taking about. I got the pulled pork (w/out bread..it's usually open faced), black beans w/ rice, and corn. Well, by the time my family had finished our meals I was bloated and uncomfortable. Maybe it wasn't gluten free or more likely it was cc in the kitchen.

I told DH once in the car that I think I got glutened. I haven't felt the immediate bloating after a meal in quite while, so really, I know I was. I said to DH, that the saddest part of it all was that it wasn't even a great meal. Actually not even average. It was pretty blah. If I knew I was going to feel like junk after eating dinner I would have skipped the BBQ and gone right for a Dunkin Donut or cheesecake or cookie dough ice cream LOL!

We'll see what tomorrow brings. Thankfully I don't get vomiting or immediate diarrhea, so I can chalk this up to unfortunate but not horrible. And I'll cross that restaurant off my list of places to go.

I'm sorry! That's always the way it is! If we are gonna be sick, it would be so much better to have had something wonderful and delicious that we have missed, not kjust a mediocre meal! Hope you bounce back quickly!

      I put on over 12kg by eating protein with every meal, 3 to 5 times a day. Eggs, Chicken, Tuna, Turkey etc. I stay away from too much red meat as it can be inflammatory. Scott is correct. I've come across a bunch of Coeliac PT's on Tiktok and Instagram. They all say the same thing, the key is getting enough protein and consistency.

      It's great to hear that eliminating gluten has helped alleviate symptoms like eye burning, which is a significant and positive change. The first and most important step is to ensure you're consuming enough protein throughout the day to support muscle repair and growth, which can be challenging with a busy schedule. Since you're already physically active at work, adding focused strength training just 2-3 times per week can make a major difference. Bodyweight exercises like squats, push-ups (modified if needed), and lunges, or using resistance bands at home, are excellent, efficient places to start. Remember, consistency with these short sessions and prioritizing post-workout recovery, including good sleep and hydration, are just as crucial as the workouts themselves. It's a smart, gradual process at any age.

      Trader Joe's carries a good variety of affordable gluten-free foods like bagels, hamburger buns, pasta, etc. I like Franz Gluten Free bread, which is available at my local Costco. Food For Life and Little Northern Bakehouse (advertisers here) also make excellent gluten-free breads. Costco also sells gluten-free pizzas, crackers, gravy, etc.
