    how did your bread turn out? It turned out really good. I was surprised as it seemed so sticky just like a banana bread mix and not the consistency of reg bread. I made it all from scratch in the machine. Even the guys liked it. I made banana and cranberry bread too and they like that too. Not a big difference in taste to me-it was just more porous...

    You know I never even connected the 2. I've had FM for many years. Had days where I could hardly walk and it took everything for me to get out of bed. Carrying a bag of potatoes hurt my muscles and caused my neck muscles to ache which in turn gave me a violent headache and the brain fogs where something else. I was diagnosed with celiac disease a few months...

    Thanks to everyone for their help. It's trial and error I guess until I know what's what. I know I still get gluten in my diet by the way I feel some days esp the mood probably cause I don't always sleep good. I have more energy and the acid reflux and heartburn are pretty well gone. I have ck'd out the safe and non safe food list and that's a good idea to...

    Well I decided to try baking the gluten free way today. sigh. I made p butter cookies which are good but a little to sweet for me so will cut back on sugar next time. I made banana bread which seems fine to me but a little moist but I used thawed out bananas so perhaps to much liquid. Now I've tackled bread and I don't think it's right LOL. I put all ingred...

    hi everyone, still waiting to hear from the doctor re testing. i have started taking organic golden flax seed cold milled the past week-about a teaspoon in the morn with breacky. does that give you gas and more gas like later on in the day? i can't figure out what i'm eating that would bother me so much. i'm not sleeping very well at all on account of the...

    I'm just watching what i eat right now. to be honest i'm not a big gluten eater at least i don't think i am. i have oatmeal in the morn and sometimes a sandwhich at lunch and once a week pasta but other that i don't eat a lot of noticeable gluten food. i love rice so have that 2-3 times a week. i'm not a big sweet eater either. there must be a lot of hidden...

    i agree with nooner. thanks to everyone for their help. i have learned a lot here. beth Another relative newbie here, and I just want to say that all you veterans are awesome!

You don't need...
