  1. There are no dedicated Gluten Free bakeries in DFW that I am aware of since Laura's closed. On something as important as your wedding cake and on a day as big as your wedding day, I probably would not chance it with a regular bakery - too much cc. If it were me, my entire wedding would be Gluten free, just because it is my special day and I wouldn't want...
  2. I second the Justmommies.com forums - the nicest group of ladies on any TTC forum. I also agree that patience is key - depending on age, genetic factors, timing and just plain luck, it is not as easy to get pregnant as we always believed it to be. I read somewhere that the average is 6-8 months after coming off hormone forms of birth control. Kat.
  3. I am so sorry your original post/question got derailed. I will be happy to provide you with some of my bar coping strategies that may help you in the future. If I am in a bar, I tend to stick to the simple. I don't want to quiz the bartender when they are very busy. Most unflavored liquers are gluten free. Watch out for the flavored or "girly" drinks...
  4. The wait is long and they don't take reservations. We took our pager next door to Fox Sports Grill to watch the Mavs. game while we waited. Kat.
  5. If you are willing to travel to Dallas the Dr. listed below are endorsed by DFW Celiac. I have not used any of the dr.'s but my Endocrinoligist is in the Dallas Diagnostics Group and I have been very impressed with them so far. Dr. John Secor 8221 Walnut Hill Lane, Dallas, TX Suite 214, LB 1 214-368-6707 Open Original Shared Link Dr. Steven...
  6. I wanted to add my two cents. I found out they had gluten free pizza earlier this month and just made it out last night. It was worth it - and by far the best gluten free pizza I have had to date. The one at Legacy just started stocking Red Bridge beer, also. While Red Bridge is not my favorite gluten-free beer - it was priceless to order beer and pizza...
  7. If you want hard answers, then you will need to go through either an elimination diet or testing. For years I tracked my food to see what was bothering - pizza, spaghetti, some BBQ and sandwhiches. If I had my guess, it would have been tomatoes. Nope - it was wheat. My uncle is diagnosed with biopsy and blood test. His reaciton is quick and swift...
  8. Jason, I changed jobs about 2 years ago and I am expected to go to lunches and dinners with clients, co-workers and my bosses. It used to be so nerve wracking for me to eat out with other people - I was intimidated and embarassed. I have since discovered that most people don't think twice about it after the waiter leaves and no body has thought less...
  9. I handle it different at each house. My MIL is very considerate and saves every wrapper/container and always includes me in the menu planning before hand. She is also the only house that feels guilty if I cannot eat EVERYTHING. I usually do a lot of the cooking over there and I enjoy it. My FIL's house and his wife - while they have the biggest hearts...
  10. Hopefully you are on the tail end of it. I glutened myself on Christmas day (Yea - it was a dumb mistake too) and I am back to myself today. Still a little tired, but coming out of the fog. It has been a long time since I was zinged this much, it has only been cc issues and just a couple of them in the past two years. It usually takes about a week for...
  11. I am a fellow soccer player with Celiac! I have been gluten free for over 2 years, but when I do get glutened - all my inflamation responses flare - shin splints, IT Band (Has you AT checked your IT - mine will kill me from over use after a tourney), you name it it flares. It does subside with time, ice and Arnica Gel. It is also possible you truly hurt...
  12. Elizabeth - Did the Kix say Gluten Free on the Box? I looked at a box in Central Market (H-E- and noticed it no longer contained oats or barley, but didn't buy them because I wasn't 100% sure. The Honey Nut Chex pre gluten free used Almond, hopefully that won't change.
  13. It was Delicious n Fit when it was on Parker road. Laura just moved locations next to the Pancake house on 75 the name changed to Laura's Bistro. I haven't been to the new location yet, but we went to the old location on a regular basis. She always bakes my birthday cakes every year and I buy graham crackers in bulk during the holidays for pie crusts...
  14. I know this is probably too late for your trip, but I travel to Tampa a lot. I eat at Capital Grill in the International Plaza Mall. The Chef is always so accomodating. He has even made me flourless chocolate cake, off the menu. The waitress even pointed out he dusted the pan with cocoa. The food is excellent and the service is always outstanding....
  15. Gatorade is Gluten Free, I drink it a lot. Dextrose is another name for sugar. It is very high on the GI index, so it could be insulin that is causing the crash and burn. As far as fueling for long rides/runs - I am training for a marathon and currently at 40 miles per week. Any run over 8 miles, I use Cytomax Gels and Cytomax pre-mixed drink. Both...
