I have run several half marathons and two full marathons since being diagnosed 3 years ago with Celiac. I personally use Infinit which is a sports drink that has everything you need nutrition wise in it for your race. You can order it at Infinit.com. The people there are very knowledgeable and can help you with the formula that will work best for you....

Pei Wei is my favorite place to eat. The gluten-free sweet and sour chicken/shrimp is awesome. It is very sweet and served with pinapple and green peppers, which can easily be pushed to the side. The gluten-free Chicken salad rolls are really good too, but I am not sure how kid friendly they are. Pei Wei, in my experience has always been really careful...

I always carry water on my runs and use powergel and clif shot blocks as fuel. You may want to try and find a recovery drink to use... -
ARCHIVED Gaining Weight Training For 1/2 Ironman Instead Of Losing
runner girl replied to a topic in Sports and Fitness
During long runs and bike rides, I alternate between shot blocks and powergel. I just finished a half ironman and thought I had my nutrition down, but at the tail end of the bike leg, I was so hungry, something I was totally unprepared for because I had never experience that during training. I ended up eating bananas during the run along with my get and... -
I have run 1 marathon, several half marathons, and just finished a half ironman last month, since being diagnosed with Celiac. The night before the half ironman, I ate rice pasta and some gluten free bread. I felt amazing during the race. I think you are able to get enough carbs this way. I have also used rice to carbo load. I don;t think there is anything...

The Spaghetti Factory also has gluten free pasta and a gluten free menu. Chili's also has some gluten free items as well.

How did you go about having the genetic testing ordered? If you don't mind me asking, did your insurance pay for this or did you have to do it out of pocket. I would like to know if my kids carry the gene, just so I know if I need to keep an eye on them. My pediatrician has ordered the celiac panel blood test for my youngest and we are waiting for the...

I am 6 weeks gluten free and now feel like I have more energy. I used to be tired all the time, thought that it was normal, now I have so much more energy. Because of this, I feel I am better able to deal with stress and seem to be more tolerant. Good luck and congrats on 7 weeks gluten free! Runnergirl P.S. I made the best pinapple upside...

I was just wondering how long it takes before symptoms appear after accidentally eating gluten. I ate a salad last night that had croutons on top. I picked off the croutons and the top layer of the salad then ate the rest after washing my hands. I felt really "gassy" an hour later and was wondering if that was the cause. Before being diagnosed, I did...

Hi all, First, I just want to thank everyone for all you're help and advice. It is nice to have a support system to help, especially since this is only week 2 of being gluten free. My question is, since celiac causes malabsorbtion in the intestine until things have a chance to heal, is birth control affected? I wonder if it is being absorbed....

Is it ok to touch things with gluten as long as they are not put in the mouth. I was making paper maiche with my daughter and used regular flour. I am hoping this is not a problem. If so, how do you guys deal with cooking "gluten" food for your families? Thanks in advance

Thanks so much for the advice. I just ordered that cookbook a couple of days ago. I did make one loaf of bread in my bread machine and it wasn't as bad as the ones you get in the stores.

Hi, I was just diagnosed with celiac two weeks ago. I am one of the lucky ones, with my only symptom was anemia. I was tested because I was having other labs done and figured I would have a celiac panel run because of a family history (my aunt and grandmother). I was shocked to learn I came back positive and when my boipsy was done, I was told I had moderate...
