  1. Isn't most sweet and sour chicken breaded? I'd also worry about cross-contamination, no matter what you order. I know these are new friends, and you may not feel totally comfortable talking about your health issues with them, but it is far more important for you to stay healthy. So, if you truly want to go out to dinner with them, I'd say, talk to them...
  2. I'm pretty new to the gluten-free diet. I was gluten-free for a while when I lived in Washington, DC and I usually shopped at Whole Foods (I passed 2 on my way to and from work every day and had several more nearby). Now I live in the Webster/League City/Clear Lake area just South of Houston, TX and I work in Deer Park. If anyone knows of any grocery...
  3. You definitely need to be eating more during the day, and seriously increase protein/fat and decrease carbs. I know how crazy it can be at work, but you HAVE to take the time to do it. One of my favorite quick lunches is a packet of tuna (or salmon, you can get it in the same isle as canned tuna) with a little bit of gluten-free (and preferably low-carb...
  4. So, I just got back from my OB appt. It's official, I'm 6 weeks pregnant! My husband was MUCH more supportive last night... I think he was just really stressed from work before.

Will you be living somewhere that you can prepare your own food? I know some colleges/universities will allow people with severe allergies to opt-out of the "mandatory" meal plans rather...
  6. Thanks Alamaz! I think my husband figures that if I don't have the symptoms very often (when I'm not pregnant), then I can go back to eating gluten like I did in '05. At that time, we really truly thought that it was a hormonal thing rather than "real" celiac. Also, how likely is it that the test would be positive if I've been mostly gluten-free? I...
  7. Sorry this is so long. I'm going to go through a history of my disease... then ask a few questions. In May 2000 (age 23) I suddenly started having nausea and diarrhea several times per day. I was in college at the time and went to the on-campus clinic. Over the next 3 months they tested me for giardia (sp?) and a ton of other stuff. Had me keep a...
