About Me
I am married to a Marine, no kids, but we have two dogs. We recently moved to NC with the humidity and bugs, which is hard to get used to because I have lived most of my life in dry heat.Â
I am in school working on my Associates in Arts Degree and I am not sure what my major is yet, since I am taking one step at a time.Â
I love music, movies and TV shows such as The Walking Dead. I love the Harry Potter series and LOTR.Â
I was diagnosed with Celiac in February 2008 and I have been 100% gluten free since my dx. However I have been glutened in the process, I was even glutened last night when I went out to eat. This is why I don't eat out very often because I always take a chance when eating at an establishment.
Celiac is prevalent in my family, most of my immediate family members have celiac, however I am the only who chooses to eat gluten-free. I suppose I don't like running to the bathroom 15 times a day and feel like I am dying because I am dehydrated and malnourished. To each their own.

ARCHIVED Disappointed At Chipotle - What Should I Expect?
msmini14 replied to Nikki2777's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants
I get sick every time I eat there. Even if the employee changes gloves and is careful with my food. I love the food since it is good but not worth it to me. -

I am glad I dont use this site for support anymore... Some come off as rude these days and not helpful.

After reading all of the comments and being a member on this board for a few years I have a couple of comments for this post. 1. From my understanding Chopper was venting about their glutening and just wanted some support. This is a support group. 2. I understand why people reacted the way they did. If newbies come on this site and read vapors glutened...

ARCHIVED Baked Goods Cooked At Higher Temperatures To Make Them Gluten Free?
msmini14 replied to jantrelau's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants
Unbelievable! Some compaines think we are stupid enough to believe this. I bought rice pudding about 4 years ago and it said gluten free on the label but had wheat listed on the label. How can it be gluten-free??? That is amazing this company told you that. So frustratring. -
ARCHIVED Dr. Oz Says Don't Go gluten-free If No Symptoms
msmini14 replied to Silencio's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I used to watch Dr. Oz until I realized how everything in the world is good one day and then bad the next or how many diets this man has promoted. I am sure he is only talking about gluten intolerance just so he can benefit from this too. Next thing I will hear is how Dr. Oz said to go gluten-free hahaha. Every show is different and there is always... -

ARCHIVED Ideas For Salads?
msmini14 replied to Junior Chef's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
My hubby and I love salads and I guess I would call this a garbage disposal salad since I put everything in it. Black Beans Canned beets Shredded cheese Cucumber Red Bell Pepper Mushrooms Tomato Avacado 1 boiled egg (per salad) 2 pieces of turkey bacon Red Onion The white part of green onions (hubby loves these) I no longer include lettuce... -
I want to say congrats to all the people out there that have been able to kick this unhealthy habit. I finally stopped smoking in March of 2009 and have not had one since! I smoked for 14 years straight at an average of 1 pack a day. Quitting was soooo hard but I did it. And like others have said, "If you can stop eating gluten, you can stop smoking"...

I am glad to hear you all have had a good experience =) I am happy RR offers buns but I probably wouldnt order my chicken sandwich with bread again because it fills me up to quickly. I love my lettuce wraps now and I cant believe I just said that lol.

ARCHIVED Reaction To Buddig Lunch Meats...or?
msmini14 replied to Seante Wilson's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I eat Budding all the time and I too buy the little packs because they are perfect and have never had a problem =) -
I agree with others on here because it all has to do with the store and management. I didnt eat there for a couple of years until I actually went in and spoke with the manager to ask if they use a dedicated fryer. What is the point having a hamburger or chicken sandwich if you cant have fries? lol. Anyways, I have enjoyed great service (Concord, CA) and...

ARCHIVED Find Any Strange New Things You Love Food Wise?
msmini14 replied to Newtoitall's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
I thought I wouldn't survive going gluten-free over 3 years ago. Now I see it as a blessing, I now have such a wide variety of fruit, veggies and food to choose from. If I hadn't been diagnosed with celiac I would still be eating unhealthy. I love so many different foods now that I would never have touched before. I know that I am addicted to peanut butter... -

ARCHIVED How Often Do You Cheat?
msmini14 replied to steve-010's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I went gluten-free in february 2008, I ate gluten on purpose march of 08 because I couldn't resist and I didn't understand how important it was for me to eat gluten-free. Well after march of 08 I have never eaten gluten on purpose, it is not worth getting sick or any other affects that it takes on me. It sucks because there are people out there who tell...
