I do not like any of the sugar substitutes. they leave a very bitter after taste and I usually get a headache or a sour stomach. sooo, it will take me longer on WW, but I prefer the health benefits to organic yogurts that are not sweetened with aspartame or splenda. I have no problelm with cottage cheese, but i don't eat it that often. Extra veges...maybe...

Has anyone attempted Weight Watchers while being gluten sensitive??? It's working, but I am looking for anyone who is or has done this successfully. Advice and any hints you have would be helpful. Gotta get the excess pounds off!

Maltodextrin --- I thought it was ok, but I just read an article that it contains hidden gluten? Anybody know?

PERFECT! THANK SO MUCH. I THOUGHT IT WAS, AND READ THAT IT WAS, BUT I WANTED TO KNOW HOW IT AFFECTED OTHER CELIACS. YOU REALLY HELPED OUT! I'M TAKING THE PLUNGE. THE LIGNANS ARE SO GOOD FOR US.

Can anybody verify for me that ground flax is gluten free. I am pretty sure it is but would like others' experiences with it.

ARCHIVED Dreading Telling My Mil
Mally-bug replied to goldyjlox's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Hi everybody... I have to agree with the others on not eating what your mil bakes outside your own house. I sometimes wonder (and I am not suggesting YOUR mil would do this, but this is my own experience) if non-celiacs who think "just a little if ok" add a little gluten ingredient, etc and watch to see if there will be a reaction? I know it sounds devious... -
Hello everybody! I am wondering is anyone has ever had any gastro problems with maltitol (artificial sweetener). I bought some macaroons that were gluten-free, CF, and sweetened with maltitol. MAN! I feel like I've been glutened, but I cannot imagine from what. Cottage cheese? Everything else I've had (besides the cookies) is something I've cooked myself...

ARCHIVED Dreading Telling My Mil
Mally-bug replied to goldyjlox's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Awwww I feel for you! But I have to agree with Fiddlefaddle....pump up the MIL and tell her that she is such a great cook that you look forward to her "help" in cooking gluten-free. She could experiment with some of the new recipes you'll send her and you just know she'll enjoy the new challenge! Actually, i have purchased a few of the boxed cake/bread... -
Does anyone know if the Arby's chicken salad sandwich or wrap served without the bread or tortilla, of course, is gluten free? I checked their website and they say it is not gluten free, but I just ate it and right now I'm ok. What in the world could be the gluten ingredient? I get it served on lettuce in a bowl. anyone had one before? tasty with the grapes...

ARCHIVED Does The Spouse Really Understand

Thanks ladies. I know my family means well and I didn't want to gripe, but I guess I needed to vent. Thanks so much for all your advice. -

Well, I have been TRYING to eat gluten-free since July. My daughter had a positive result from Enterolab and she and I both had positive dietary responses. Another daughter got on the bandwagon after seeing our success and she is doing great (eliminating casein too) Now, my son (who lives on his own) is trying this as his fiance is positive he has this as... -
ARCHIVED Paleolithic Diet
Mally-bug replied to Mally-bug's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Wow! Your responses are just terrific! thank you so much. I'd like to give it a try, ...I have to give a tad more research to this and see some sample menus. I can think of a few right off the bat but I fear the boredom and then I'm back with the old habits. chicken, beef, pork, fish. yum! veges - yum! fruit - yum! nuts - love 'em i love dairy tho... -
ARCHIVED Paleolithic Diet

You have all been so supportive since I started as a member of this forum. I love "talking" to you, reading your stories, and your advice. I have another question for you... I have begun reading about the Paleolithic Diet and how it is a wonderful way of eating for celiacs and those with gluten intolerances. Have any of you tried this? Is it difficult... -
ARCHIVED Enterolab Results
Mally-bug posted a topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
If any of you out there have had stool tests done by Enterolab, about how long did you have to wait for your results? I know they say that if you don't hear within three weeks to contact them, but I am wondering if it takes them the better part of three weeks to e-mail you the results?Or did you get the results sooner??? I am just looking for your experience...
