Good luck on either plan that you chose. It is more a personal choice of core plan vs. points plan. I'm not celiac, but my 2 children are, and I actually met a lady at WW who has celiac and she has utilized both plans with success. My personal choice has always been the points. I've been a life-time member for 1 1/2 years and lost 26 lbs. AND have kept...

ARCHIVED Food-tek Products
Mom22 replied to angel-jd1's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
You don't know what you are missing if you don't place an order. All the cakes, bread and cornbread are awesome! My kids love them and they are so quick and easy. I can't say enough good things about them. Actually saw them do a demo, by one of the owners, at a support group meeting and tasted first hand and have been hooked ever since. Mom22 -
ARCHIVED Gillians French Rolls
Mom22 replied to skinnyminny's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I toast them and then put pizza sauce and mozarella cheese and pop it in the oven until the cheese melts. The kids love them. I haven't had much sucess with these rolls staying together unless they are toasted first, but they do taste good! -

ARCHIVED Is It Too Late For My Son To Grow?
Mom22 replied to mart's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
Our son was 9 when he was diagnosed and was of average height at that time. In the past two years of being gluten-free, he has gained close to 20 pounds and grew 4 1/2 inches. Our daughter was diagnosed at 4, now age 6 and has grown 2 inches, but is still a little underweight, but is improving. I think it is the age. I'm sure your son will sprout up too... -

There is a support group in Gettysburg, PA that meets twice a year and has a meeting coming up on November 7th, I believe. We have about 40 people and the chairwoman contacts numerous gluten-free companies and gets an awesome abundance of gluten-free samples. I usually come home with several shopping bags of free food. Meetings are on Monday nights. There...

ARCHIVED Possible Accidentally Glutenized
Mom22 replied to Mom22's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
Thanks for the replies. I guess I get a little overanxious at the first sign of any gastro problems with the kids. We just had his yearly appt. with Dr. Fasano and both our son and daughter's antibodies were negative, which confirmed we are doing the gluten free diet well. After 1 year of doing this, it was great to hear it is working. Our 10 year old... -

ARCHIVED Log Cabin
Mom22 replied to domineske's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Can someone please list what maple syrups are safe and gluten-free? I have been using the Log Cabin syrup for my kids for months thinking it was gluten-free based on the gluten-free listings. Ugghhhh. Both my kids just had their annual physical with their GI specialist and bloodwork was taken to check their antibodies, so I guess their #'s won't be low... -
