ARCHIVED Milk Question....
DonnaD777-777 replied to karinezoe's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
Personally, I would give her coconut milk because it is high in fat, just like milk, I will be giving my child coconut milk after I am done breast feeding....really how much calcium is absorbed from milk? Hardly none at all, babies need fat not fiction. -

ARCHIVED Ok Not Eating Vitamins While Pregnant
DonnaD777-777 replied to Yenni's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Check with your obgyn on what exactly you need. I know you need 30mg of IRON a day, and lots of calcium...so you are probably going to have to take individual viatamins on the ones you are not getting enough of. -
I used to have the same problem...I couldn't stop with one bottle...I still drink wine about 3-4 times a week, but stop after 2 or 3 glasses. I stopped craving as much wine when i stopped eating carbohydrates when drinking wine. If i drink wine, i've either eaten fruit all day or I drink it with protein meals such as cheese, salmon, chicken, ect...with...

ARCHIVED Calorie Content In Gluten Free
DonnaD777-777 replied to mustluvcats's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
lol. it doesn't make it healthier, it makes it where calories don't count !!!! I love splurging on as much gluten free cookies that i want. It's nice to eat things that we normally can't gluten free and not worry about gaining weight.....it is the beverly hills diet and i recommend the first book..it is amazing, at least following the rules. In fact the... -
ARCHIVED For People With Roommates...help
DonnaD777-777 replied to num1habsfan's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Unfortunately lisa, you really have no control over what your roommate does, she is her own person. She is not going to change, i suggest you find a way to get out of the lease. I have struggled with roommates in the past, and it really doesn't get better but worse...especially on the cleaning up things...she probably won't take out her trash and then you... -

ARCHIVED How Many Have Self Diagnosed Celiacs?
DonnaD777-777 replied to a topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
I was self-diagnosed because i went to doctors all my life and not one could tell me why i had a rash on my arm and why i was so deficient in so many vitiamins and minerals. Finally, i got sick of my bledding sore on my hip bone, an itchy rash all over my stomach (how could i date? i couldn't), diarria waking me up at 6 in the morning until 2 pm, fatigue... -
Unfortunately, it doesn't even go through my body to get a reaction, after eating oats I get an immediate horrible stomach ache and 20-30 minutes later I throw up until my stomach is empty.(this has happened 3-5 times before i gave them up)

ARCHIVED Healed And Never Get Sick
DonnaD777-777 replied to Lisa's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
I get sick quite frequently, only occurs when i eat out...i pretty much had to cut out bone fish, because i get sick everytime i go there, pf changs, and other restuarants.

ARCHIVED Coconut Flour A Godsend
DonnaD777-777 replied to draeko's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Has anyone read the coconut oil miracle? It is an awesome book, it supports all of the benefits coconut has to offer. I love cooking with it, it makes the food really light. Because I have a very high fat diet (fat seems to be where i get a lot of my energy from to sustain me through the day), coconut oil is very relaxing on my digestive system. the complex... -

DonnaD777-777 replied to 1965kid's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Check out the restuarant sections for gluten free menus' like bone fish..anyways, when i am invited over to a friends for dinner, i always bring a dish that i know i will enjoy so i will not starve. I will ask curious questions like, "oh that smells good, what did you use for spicing" cooks will always answer you, and if they say something you can't have... -
ARCHIVED How Many Have Self Diagnosed Celiacs?
DonnaD777-777 replied to a topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
I'm self diagnosed, i only wish the doctors had an idea when i was growing up, i was in and out of the doctor's office my whole life to figure out what was wrong with me, know i go to the doctor and let them know i have celiac's, and i have not had one argue with me or make me take a test, they say my symptoms are right on. I do want to let you know... -
I react heavily with grain distilled vinegar. I have had to switch to gluten free mustard, mayo, salad dressing, and anything that say vinegar on it unless it states applecider vinegar or balsamic vinegar. You might not react...but i am very, very sensitive to a mild does of gluten. I'm curious as to where you learned that?

ARCHIVED gluten-free Almonds
DonnaD777-777 replied to powerbraid's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
when i was first diagnosed, i had a hard time eating almonds too...even till today, but it is not as bad as it was when i was first diagnosed. My theory, is that my intenstines where still to weak to digest something pretty hard, and have it go through if not completely digested. It irritated my intestines more because of its hard tecture. I did soft foods... -
Looking back on it, my symptons got horrible when i quite smoking and that's when i found out that i had celiac's...i am smoking now. I don't smoke MJ anymore, but i almost had to when i was having reactions and didn't know what was going on to heal the pain.
