ARCHIVED Today Is My 1 Year Anniversary :)
kimis replied to kimis's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Thanks guys..........you rock!!!!!!! I knew you all would make me feel better. I love this place! -
I have been on the gluten free diet for one whole year today.......wow! It seems like just yesterday I was eating bread that doesn't coast 5 bucks a loaf. I have to say that in three or four extreme moments of weakness I may have taken a bit of my daughters food without her looking. It's hard being the only celiac in the house, especially when I do ALL...

ARCHIVED For Those Who Were Diagnosed After Having A Baby..
kimis replied to foodiegurl's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Three years after I had my daughter I noticed my GI problems were becoming a big problem. After I would eat I would feel bloated and have pains in my stomach. It got to the point where I would only eat once a day, at night, then go right to bed. After hearing a bunch of sh!t from all different Drs, I was dx with Celiac 5 years after my first symptoms. -
ARCHIVED Honey Nut Chex

About those strawberry chex.....I was buying them for a while too, then I noticed the box had changed. Now, the boxes with the word NEW up top have glten in them..... -
I have a nodule, and my thyroid is enlarged. I was dx with Hashimoto's in November I think. I agree that it is somehow related to Celiac. I didn't start feeling the effects of the thyroid problems till 3 or 4 months after I started the gluten-free diet. I think my immune system had nothing to do after I stopped eating gluten.....so it moved on to something...
-
I was shopping at giant yesterday....I saw honey nut chex says NOW GLUTEN FREE right on the box. They were gooooooood!
-
okay thanks.....does that include Unithroid or is it limited to Synthriod? I guess that means you are taking Levothyroxine.
-
wow....that is really nice of you . I think my body just needed time to ajust to something new. I am still on half a pill every other day, but the swelling has gone away. Next week I will bump myself up and hopefully I will start feeling like my old self again. Thanks.....

My daughter wants to start taking vitamins. She can't swallow pills yet.....so I am looking for a chewable. What kinds do your kids like? Thanks!
-
I want to start taking vitamins, but there are soooooo many different types and brands. What do you think are the best celiac friendy kinds? I took centrum pre-gluten free diet, but I stopped cause my stomach would hurt bad after taking them. I don't know if that was due to all the damage gluten was doing, or if I just have a weak belly. Anyway....what...

In november I was dx with Hashimoto's and started 50mcg levothyroxine. After three days on the med I felt bad....constipation, edema, and what felt like a heavy heartbeat. I stopped and all went back to normal. I tried again 2 months ago, 25mcg unithroid, and it happend again. I took another break, and Monday I started with half a 25mcg pill...and I am...

I did not cool the cake upside down, and I did use a non stick pan. I will follow all this wonderful advice and try it again (as soon as I get an aluminum pan). Thanks again everyone.

I get cream of tartar right in the spice section. By the way.......I made my angel food cake, I was really disappointed with how heavy it was. I was hoping for something light and fluffy. The flavor wasn't bad, but it wasn't what I hoped for. I did not wait for the egg whites to reach room temp, maybe thats where it went wrong. I did use a baking mix...
-
Do you think I can substitute all purpose baking mix for the flours and xanthan gum in an angel food cake recipe? I am not much of a baker, just have a craving for angel food cake. I would hate to buy all those different flours and stuff. The baking mix has guar gum in it already.....that is the same as xanthan gum, right? Thanks!

kimis posted a topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs

I got chocolate chip cake, but they also had vanilla, marble, chocolate coconut, and chocolate chocolate chip. I assum all Genuardi's carry basically the same seasonal stuff,... -
ARCHIVED Honey Kix
kimis replied to bisja's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I have had honey kix, strawberry chex, frutty and cocoa pebbles, and trix all without any problems. I would also like to point out that I never had any gi issues before I went gluten free, just high liver enzymes. So if there is a cc issue, than don't go by me...go by someone with a sensitive tummy. This whole situation sucks if you ask me. I want... -
I got a box of Honey Kix today......no gluten listed in the ingredients! Yum

I ordered seasons 1-4 and I'm half way through the 2nd. I got the complete series on e-bay for $120. My boyfriend, daughter and myself are just addicted to this show! I read that David Tennant wanted to be "The Doctor" since he was three, and is leaving the show to play Hamlet in a play. Also, he is Scottish and fakes his accent for the show. I also...

so....who would win in a fight.....Rose or Martha? Donna dosn't look like much of a fighter. My family is also bummed over the change in doctors, but we were also bummed the first time and that turned out great.

Hello everyone. I feel the need to tell everyone that Doctor Who is the BEST SHOW EVER!!!!!!!!!!! I'm talking about the new shows that started in 2004. I have never been addicted to a show before, but this one is soooooo worth checking out!! In no time you will be talking with a british accent!

ARCHIVED I Have Been Eating Gluten For Over A Month
kimis replied to kimis's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Yes, my Dr. has confirmed my Celiac and I have been on the diet 10 months. I know all the bad stuff gluten can do, and I will continue to be gluten free. I'm not asking if anyone thinks it's okay to eat gluten if you have Celiac Disease. I'm saying for the past 9 months I have felt horrible, and after eating gluten every day for weeks I am Feeling great... -
ARCHIVED I Have Been Eating Gluten For Over A Month
kimis posted a topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
My aunt made me gluten free muffins and cookies....isn't she sweet! I have been eating them every day since just before Thanksgiving. To make a long story short....the food was not gluten free....more like gluten packed!!!!! The strange part about this whole thing is....over the past 3 weeks I have been feeling great! A few months after I started the...
