Funyons rock as an alternative to the french fried onions. Also, if you are using Progresso mushroom soup, you might want to add some corn starch half way through to thicken it up a bit. I've used this recipe for 3 years now and everyone loves, even the non-gluten people that actcually let have some last year Good luck

Do a search in this topic for Red Lobster and you will find a ton of results, ranging from pleasant experiences to absolute nightmares. It seems to all depend on how well the manager and staff at that particular restaurant are acquainted in dealing with food allergies. I noticed your address was Milford, IN. I live in Mishawaka. I have eaten at the Red...

I have eaten Ball Park franks and never had any problems. Ditto the response about Sara Lee products, I've never had any issues with their products, their labeling reliability ranks right up there with Kraft.

Trash it, and any pots and pans that are teflon need to go to( gluten can stick in the scrathed surface area). Same with old wooden cooking utensils. I know it sounds overwhelming, but better safe than sorry. When I was diagnosed, my wife voluntarily threw everything in the kitchen out and bought all new stuff, although I think that was just an excuse to...

To combine a few responses here, lots of protein and the free weights are best for working out, even if they seem like ridiculously small weights. My first question would be are you taking vitamin supplements, especially B12. When I was diagnosed almost 2 years ago, I weighed 105 pounds and was put in the hospital for fear of heart failure because all...

Check out www.bodybuilding .com. It's not just for muscle heads. They have a huge database of excercises and programs, articles, diet tips and all sorts of neat stuff.

To further muddy up the discussion, I found this reference that says L-glutamine and peptide bonded glutamine are not the same thing. Open Original Shared Link I agree that we should steer clear of anything containing peptide bonded glutamine, but pure form L-glutamine should be fine. I think the article listed above has a link for the L-glutamine...

naNO vapor is gluten free, I checked with them and having been meaning to try it. However, Muscletech products are manufactured at a facility with shared lines though, so it all boils down to how much risk you're willing to take. Don't know about the vitamins

EAS 100% whey protein( vanilla and chocolate) are gluten free, but are manufactuered at a shared facility on seperate lines. I've written and spoken to them a couple times and their stories are always consistent, so I belive they are trustworthy. I've used both for several months and have never had any problems. I know they do make some shakes that are not...

Without knowing which egg replacement you used, my immediate instinct would be cross contamination from the GNC protein powder. I refuse to use any GNC products for that reason, as everytime I've contacted them about various products I got lengthy CYA statements. I know they produce several other supplement powders, bars, and drinks that contain wheat and...

Hello and welcome! Yes it is true, you will feel better than you ever thought possible. I've been gluten free for a little over 3 months and I never knew you could feel this good. It just takes a little time. You've already received some great advice, the main things is to start slow and go with the basic bland stuff and work your way up. I'd highly recommend...

If you slip up on croutons again I will bombard you with PM's, ridiculing you for cheating with croutons instead of something more nutritous and wholesome; like girl scout cookies, a Big Mac, or a deep dish pizza Stay strong brother, we're all here for you

I'm assuming you pretty much ate a bodybuilder's type diet before going gluten free. It sounds like you did judging by what you say you eat now. If so, just stick with it. You should start to gain back as your intestines heal up and you begin to absorb everything once again. I put on 35 lbs in two months since my diagnosis ( and decreased my body fat by...

Ohh, pestering! Sounds like fun! Off to make my third "polite" pestering call
