    We ate out at a very nice, small neighborhood restaurant last night for our anniversary. I called ahead and talked to the chef/owner and she said not problem about accommodating me. This is the type of place that serves you soup, appetizer, salad, your choice of two entrees and desert for one price. She cooks with organic fresh herbs and produce, most grown...

    Yes, I love it. I tried it a couple of months ago! Now i make personal sizes and freeze one for later.

    I can drink Redbridge and I am pretty sensitive. Sometimes I get a reaction and dont know why. I figured it was cross contamanation. Sometimes I think I might be my dogs (there dog food contains gluten) I have had a reaction more then once from Amy's so I dont eat them now.

    I just checked the package on the Reeses mini's no wheat ingredients listed. Has something called TBHQ...don't know what that is. I have been eating them and no reaction. I am very sensitive.

    I recently had one of Amy's no gluten added or gluten free (didnt check) Mexican casserole bowl. I am extremely sensitive and I did have a reaction. I hadnt tried Amys for about 6 months, I used to eat her pretty regularly but started having a reactions to her products more and more the longer I was gluten-free. I wish I didnt, becasue sometimes it is...

    I wear a mask and latex gloves on the rare occasions when I bake dinner rolls now. I really miss baking gluten bread, gluten-free bread just isnt as much fun

    Welcome I also used to bake bread (especially yummy dinner rolls) by hand. Not all the time so I didnt use a mixer, love to knead the dough. Now I bake my own gluten-free bread, I dont like the store bought kind. I tried by hand, but gluten-free bread is just not as fun to make as regualar bread. So I use a bread machine. I find it convinent...

    No, I dont seem to have a reaction. I eat cheese almost every day and have milk in my coffee. No reation. They are in smaller portions. I will buy another brand of yogat. If I continue having a reaction, I guess I will have to stop dairy.

    Wow, never thought of that. I have never had a problem with antibiotice, (but then again cow antibiotics are different I am sure). I not plan on buying it again. Thanks

    Has anyone else had symptoms, only have them to disapear after several years? Then come back a few years later (often after triggers, birth of daugher, divorce, etc.) Also very small and thin until 16 then I finally grew.

    This morning I ate lucerne plain yogurt. It says it uses corn starch. Nothing else suspicious listed. I had it with honey, frozen berries and flax seed meal (bobs). No new shampoo or skin products. I had a reaction very quickly after eating it. (Bloating and D, very tired today) Does anyone have any ideas what has happened? This has happened a couple...

    I dont eat much fast food, but Wendys has food that is supposed to be gluten free. My favorite is Pei Wei or PF Changs. They both have a glutten free menu and I have had good luck. At least in Texas, I find that I have good luck with most Mexican food resturants. I generally stick to the beef, because I read somewhere that some chicken can have glutten...

    Did you family doctor run tests? I went back and forth about getting a biopsy, but i had been off gluten and get sick eating gluten so decided against it. My daughter however has gone back on gluten again and plans to test. Her reactions were never intestinal problems. If I was younger I think I would, but now with the prospect of paying my own insurance...

    I found a yam flour (the same?) in the ethnic food section of our super market HEB. It is under african food imports. I havent tried it yet. they also had potato starch, for some reason I could not find my normal potato starch at whole foods or anywhere. I am sensitive and did not have a reaction to it.

    I dont know if this has anything to do with it, but before I had my gallbladder out I always felt sick after eating fatty foods. I was still eating gluten then however. You said you eat meats, do you ever eat fatty meats like brisket or ribs or ribeyes? Do they affect you? (Yes I live in texas...) I dont eat a lot a fat, and those bother me, I can...

    I use a bread machine and I have the same problem. It falls while I am baking. It looks beautiful and then it falls. Very frustrating.

    my dough is not runny. It is not thick like regualar gluten bread dough, but it is sticky and loosely solid A little softer (or wetter then bisquit dough) Hope this make sense. I make bread with a breadmaker, I dont use a mix though. With my bread machine I put in the liquid ingredients (mixed) Add the Dry ingredients (mixed) on top. In the middle...

    Paternal Grandfather was diebetic. Died 40 years ago. We dont know what type. I would defininatly cut back on carbs. Also the suggestion to get a glucose meter sounds good. I didnt realize it might be possible to stop from getting it.
  20. PeggyV
    I didnt know that they were that inexpensive. Thanks
  21. PeggyV
    No I havent been doing my B12 like I should. I will go down to the store tomorrow and get some. I need to be more careful about it. I am getting the A1C on tuesday. I just want to be sure. My diet is very low in carbs. I am sure it is nothing but it bothers me. Guess I have gotten sort of perinoid about my health.

    That helps, I have been gluten free over a year, however over thanksgiving week I was glutened 3 days in a row.... My system is still recovering. Now I wonder if that raised my blood sugar, also I did make a cheesecake last week (gluten-free of course) and had a piece 3 days in a row. Guess I am just worrying because the last several months my feet have...

Meat & veggies ( alot of brocolli) for dinner. Fruit and nuts for snacks. Dont drink pop, I eat about 4 hershy kisses a day. I am carefull with my diet...

    Need your help. Just had my annual physical. The nurse called me to let me know results. Bad choestrol is to high again (132) but this year she said my glucose was high and I needed to be tested again in 6 months. When I questioned her she said the Dr. would call me in the morning. Can this be related to Celiacs? I am not diagnosed, but am extremely...

    I use corn tortilla's alot. I melt cheese on them for a quick breakfast. Also I take plain yogart, honey and put in frozen berries. Mix it up and take to work. I bake muffins about every 2 weeks and freeze them. Put them in the microwave and have that. (My favorite is cranberry orange, I use nuts and ground flax seed for additional fiber) Lunch...
